123. Bring on the Men - Parenting: the Good, the Bad, and Everything in Between
04/11/22 • 48 min
They’re back! Colin and Drew are joining us again this week for another Bring on the Men episode, and this week we’re focusing on all things parenting. Drew may have said it best recently when he said that no one prepares you for these little kid years - and we would have to agree!
We want to thank the guys for their vulnerability and openness in sharing what’s behind the curtain of being a dad these days, as they answered some questions that fathers aren’t asked often with some very thoughtful and emotional responses (which makes us love them even more).
We hope you enjoyed this special mini-series with Colin and Drew, and that it inspires conversations between you and your own spouses about some of the important topics that we just scratched the surface on these past two episodes. As always, we would be so grateful if you shared the episode, and tag us on Instagram, @herselfpodcast, with your biggest takeaways.

122. Bring on the Men - Partnership: the Good, the Bad and Everything in Between
Today we’re all in for a treat, because we have another Bring on the Men episode! It’s been awhile since Colin and Drew have been on the podcast and a lot has changed since that last time they joined us, including our friendships, as we’re all more comfortable and much more open with each other.
In this episode, we look at partnering and how different seasons of partnership exist. We believe that every couple, including the 4 of us, have things to work on, constantly. Every time we bring Colin and Drew on, there's going to be different things to talk about, but the thing we really like about these Bring on the Men episodes is that the 4 of us are always committed to recalibrating and getting back on track. Whatever we are going through, we want to make sure we get back on track, and we want the same for you.
We had so many important things to touch on about partnership that we decided to make this a special 2-part series with the guys, and you’re not going to want to miss next week’s show where we’ll be focusing on parenting!

124: HERself Expert: Susie From @busytoddler on Activities, Play and How to Survive the Little Kids Years
We could not be more excited to talk with our special guest today, because we have Susie Allison from Busy Toddler with us! Susie is a former kindergarten and first grade teacher turned stay-at-home mom. She is an author and one of Instagram’s favorite moms, because she gives us so many tangible tips to help us navigate the “little kids years” and what to do to keep our children happy, thriving, and frankly, entertained.
A big takeaway that we got from this conversation is that we must remember to give ourselves credit for making it through the hard days, and for everything that we do as parents!
If you enjoyed this episode with Susie too, we would be absolutely honored if you tagged @busytoddler and @herselfpodcast so we can see you enjoying it!
