I'm delighted to be joined by the host of the Mamahood podcast, Maren Droubay. On this episode, Maren graciously shares some personal experiences that have profoundly shaped her appreciation for motherhood. It's often overlooked just how fortunate we are to be mothers. Yet, when the prospect of being a mom is nearly taken away, we gain a profound understanding of its value. In this episode, we'll delve into what motherhood signifies to both of us and explore the ways in which we actively embrace and cherish the role of motherhood in our daily lives.

This week, I bring you my interview with Laurie Palau from Simply B Organized. Laurie Palau. Laurie will give us some insight as to how she has created this community but we’ll specifically be discussing organization with children. We may have the highest hopes for getting our homes organized but then we must deal with the clutter that derives from our kiddos. How do we encourage our kids without coming across as a nag? How do we set boundaries as our kids age? How do we implement new rules with our older, high school aged children? Laurie will answer all of these questions and more in our interview today!

As we approach the new year, I wanted to replay one of my favorite episodes from 2019. A lot of my current listeners may have missed this one (and even if you did hear the original, it’s a great one to re-listen to over the next couple of weeks as we begin setting intentions for the new year). This episode is full of reminders for how we can implement new, simple rhythms to combat stress/anxiety or to simply start better habits.
