Amanda and I decided not to launch Season 2 this morning because we were both feeling very ungrounded and didn’t want to begin the season in that energy.

IYMN podcast isn’t a a political space nor an activism space; it was created for us to connect on our shared experiences growing up, to explore what it means to re-parent ourselves, and to foster community who are doing the same.

Right now, it feels important to be thoughtful and intentional in our actions. Why are we doing this? What’s the intention? Why do we need it? Who is it helping?

So while we intend to create content in this space that has room for levity, healing, connection, and re-parenting, we need to be very clear on one thing:

👋It is no longer an available luxury to separate your life from the politics of this country. 👋

If you support the current administration and the cornucopia of atrocities it has committed in the name of this country, our podcast is not for you.
We are both daughters of immigrants, we are women, we are mothers, we are HUMANS, and we are angry, dismayed, and heartbroken at the horrors unfolding at a pace so rapid we can’t even keep track.

And so while we must keep our sanity, we must take care of our families, our careers, our friends, we also must not be quiet about who we are and what we stand for, no matter what.

WE ARE THE CHANGE WE WISH TO SEE.
Be loud.

We are all our mothers now. We will take care of each other.

And stay tuned for szn 2 launch; it’s coming ✨✨

The sisters join forces live and in person for the last episode of season 1!

With reflections on respect, co-parenting, modeling behavior and their journey through the 25 episodes of season 1, Sarah and Amanda discuss what it means to be a reliable friend and person, and how important it is to set boundaries and require the same energy you put out is given back to you.

We'd love to hear YOUR thoughts on the first season of IYMN and what you'd like us to dive into more (or less) for season 2.

Please drop a comment below!

This week we’re talking about the question Sarah gets constantly: “How do I not make the same mistakes my parents made?” And then we dive into overcorrection, emotional intelligence, and why simply worrying about messing up your kids already means you’re doing more self-reflection than a lot of our parents ever did.

We get into root cause vs. reflex, why “easy child” stories are a red flag, and how healthy parenting isn’t perfection, it’s rupture and repair (plus actually apologizing when you blow it). Also: your kid is not your extension, your legacy, or your emotional support animal. They’re a whole person.

Next week: Season 1 finale LIVE with both of us in the same space.
