Ep. 42 - Teenagers, Pausing Time & IG Trends I Had to Try - Host Demetra Soterakis in Solo Episode #4

Moms, I have a teenager! All the cheesy cliches feel so appropriate right now (Time has wings! They grow up so fast! Blink and they’re big!). In fact, all three of my kids have summer birthdays so it’s a reflective season. Learning to be a better mom hasn’t been easy, but I’m here and I’m wiser. And who would have thought the mom who once wished her kids would grow up just a bit faster is desperately clinging onto the little kid phase! Today I’m opening up about:* celebrating my “momiversary” and the perspective that passing years bring * my textbook case of “infantalizing” my youngest kid (don’t come at me!)* how spoiling my kids and breaking generational habits can look eerily similar* the IG trend that proves you’re a great mom! Who knew social media could be this reassuring??As Season One of MomCast nears an end, we’re so grateful for all of the amazing guests who have fed our mama souls.
