After a weekend event in the city, LaLa shares a moment that sparked a full throwback to the early 2000's, when partying Thursday through Sunday and still making it to work was just normal life.But what really gets us talking… Kids are hitting their parents?! We’re seeing more and more of this behavior being labeled as “gentle parenting,” and we honestly can’t believe some parents are just accepting it. When did this become normal? And what happened to discipline and respect?This episode is a mix of inspiration, nostalgia, and real, unfiltered conversations about how much things have changed.Hosted by Shawna and LaLa, Life Beyond The Mic brings real conversations that go beyond the mic, lights, cameras, and stage.
