HiY'all! Welcome to Our Cheeky Days Podcast, our meeting place. This is our very first episode, it's our welcome and our introduction, and I'm sharing our hopes and our dreams for this podcast and for the community of parents and littles listening! We're leaping into the messy and embracing the challenging and the complex to lay those foundations for our littles. And we're going to dive into a variety of topics with moms and women from all over. Some of the conversations may push us out of our comfort zones or make us feel awkward, some may have us nodding our heads and shouting YAS, and some may just cause us to pause and think about them, but my hope is that every episode sparks conversation, and connection, and a place to come vulnerably and meet in the messy without feeling judged or alone.
