This week we’re feeling… old. Like, suddenly questioning 'what on earth has happened to us' old. Has parenthood aged us overnight, or is Ryan just fully entering his post adoption midlife crisis era? We talk about the strange identity shift that comes with becoming parents, the unexpected emotions that hit even when everything is “going well,” and why it sometimes feels like we’ve lost a version of ourselves along the way. We also get into Coachella FOMO (because apparently that version of us still exists somewhere), and share the reality of our recent family holiday, which was a lot harder than we expected. From missing our son while literally being with him, to navigating parent guilt and the emotional rollercoaster of stepping away for work. Oh, and dummies confessions is a gooden!

This week might genuinely cover every parent’s worst nightmare as we read through a scary dummy confessions sent in by one of our listeners… and immediately question why we decided to bring this topic up. Ryan also opens up a little more about his experience in foster care, sharing how those early chapters of his life continue to shape the way we approach adoption, attachment, and parenting our boy today. Ryan also launches a brand new surprise segment: “Things My Husband’s Done to Annoy Me This Week” all without giving Matthew any warning whatsoever. And the biggest realisation of the week? Lincoln’s growing personality has us both asking the same question: why does it suddenly feel like we’re parenting a teenager instead of a baby? Haha

This week we’re chatting about the emotional side of parenthood as Ryan opens up about why special moments with our son always seem to bring him to tears. We’re also recapping our Easter weekend, sharing the little family moments that made it so special, and having an honest conversation about something a lot of parents quietly worry about... are we raising a spoilt child? AND after feeling a bit lost when it comes to finding “our people”, we finally feel like we’ve had a breakthrough with making mum friends… even if not every mum encounter has been the easiest.
