Send us Fan MailThis one is for the moms. Join Eileen and special guest Audra Socinski while they hash out motherhood. In celebration of Mother's Day, this episode recognizes all the bits of motherhood, including the moments that nearly knock you out. Moms are constantly told to "enjoy it" but if we are being honest, this job is pretty freaking hard to enjoy most of the time. So this year, we are skipping the flowers, the cards, and the macaroni necklaces. This year, we want honest conversations about parenting, and a couple of compliments.  Support the showStrangers With Kittens is a podcast created by Eileen Kelly and Produced by Ashley Aker.

Send us Fan MailAre we the only ones reading the news headlines and wondering what year it is? This week on Strangers With Kittens, Eileen wrestles with time. In preparation of her own daughter's college graduation, Eileen acknowledges the similarities between Gen Z and Gen X. When Gen Xers were entering the work-force things were bad. As Gen Z enters adulthood, the workforce and beyond, it seems not much has changed. Tune in for your weekly dose of Gen X cynicism, comedy, and musings. Support the showStrangers With Kittens is a podcast created by Eileen Kelly and Produced by Ashley Aker.

Send us Fan MailThis week Eileen and special guest Kimmi Berlin, founder and creator of the non-profit organization BuildUpBoys discuss parenting, mentoring, and nurturing boys. These two GenXers are all too familiar with the clear gender roles of generations past which is why they had so much fun criticizing cultural norms and challenging society's idea of what a man should or shouldn't be. Boys aren't bad, it isn't in their biology. We can nurture boys' ability to remain attuned to their emotions, love unabashedly, and communicate. Turns out boys will be boys... but that doesn't have to be a bad thing. BuildUpBoys serves boys from Pre-K through 6th grade. But also educate their parents, grandparents, caretakers, teachers, and coaches on why encouraging them to feel, express, and regulate their entire range of emotions is so important.

Dr. Lyons is a Yale-Educated and trained Scientist, Medical Strategist, Autism Parent and Founder of Navigating Autism and www.awetism.net.  This week Eileen and Lyons get vulnerable and speak out on some of the issues surrounding Autism. It isn't so much about the kids in this episode as much as it is about navigating Autism, advocating as a parent, and prioritizing self-care like your life depends on it, because it kind of does. Not everyone unlocks this extreme level of parenting but there are pieces of this puzzle that all parents can resonate with. Tune In To This Week's Episode NowSupport the showStrangers With Kittens is a podcast created by Eileen Kelly and Produced by Ashley Aker.

Send us Fan MailConsider yourself lucky if you don't have a scar or two that came from an older brother or your scrappy little sister. Sure, there were swirlies, and noogies, and yes, you can remember the way you would squirm to avoid the loogie stretching its way towards your face, but those aren't the only stories being shared on this episode.

Send us Fan MailGeneration X has been called a lot of things. Cynical. Slackers. We might be cynical, but that's because we got shafted on so many levels. We parented ourselves. We were responsible for ourselves. We became the ones who carried the burden of the environment. We were held responsible for so many people and problems that were not our problems to solve. After decades of aching for change. It's safe to say we are exhausted. Support the showStrangers With Kittens is a podcast created by Eileen Kelly and Produced by Ashley Aker.
