Easy Wins

In this episode of the Out of Practice podcast, we discuss the importance of embracing 'easy wins' in parenting to bolster the hard work it takes to raise the next generation. We explore the significance of establishing routines, managing emotional challenges—and the role of gratitude in our lives. Quick note: we’re trying to find the best way to connect with friends, and trying Substack since it has podcast publishing and community features that seem to be a great fit - but we know it’s very much a growing platform.
