Hello our anxious mom friends!

This week, we sit down to chat about the chaotic yet joyful journey of having pets in a family with young kids. 🐾

If we had recorded this episode in Season 1, it would’ve been all about how our pets drove us nuts!

But now, with life a little less chaotic and our kids getting older, we’ve both welcomed new furry additions—a kitten for Nikki and a puppy for Alyssa.

We also reflect on the motherhood mantra, “This too shall pass,” and how it applies to both our kids and our pets.

Join us for laughs, real talk, and the realization that life’s crazy moments do eventually calm down—whether it’s with kids or pets!
