Toenail Watch And Body Standards

Send a message to the pod!

We bounce from can-crack banter into a in depth talk about body image and how the internet keeps trying to drag us back into hyper thin beauty standards. Along the way we share real life parenting updates, a Mother’s Day recap, and a listener's experience with a shared disease.

This week we discuss:

• Energy drink confusion and the ongoing quest for the perfect can crack 
• The accidental “lisp” DMs and how perception shapes confidence 
• A packed summer calendar and why we have to reset the house now 
• Decluttering struggles, clothing piles, and the slippery slope of “piling spaces” 
• Mother’s Day highlights and the long-game French toast method 
• Sewing as a new hobby and the dream t-shirt quilt plan 
• The viral 160-pound body shaming video and why the backlash mattered 
• Why weight is a poor measure of health and how language reveals stigma 
• GLP-1 meds, the return of 2000s beauty standards, and what we want to model for our kids 
• Bad dad and mean mom moments, plus what it feels like to be seen by your kids 
• Word of the week: susuration 
• Listener voicemail update on hand, foot, and mouth and the dreaded “toenail watch” 
• Advice for the jump from one to two kids with an 18-month gap 
• Baby product recommendations, what is worth splurging on, and why less is more
