  • The World Is on Fire, But We’re Still Parenting
    Jun 25 2025

    When the world feels like it’s burning politically, socially, & emotionally, what do we do as parents?

    In this episode, Chelsea and Mike get honest about what it means to raise kids in today’s tense climate and why your home might just be the most powerful place of resistance.

    From stress-induced doomscrolling to boundary-setting in your own house, they unpack how overwhelmed couples can protect their peace, raise emotionally intelligent kids, and reclaim joy as an act of radical parenting.


    This conversation explores:

    • The hidden toll of always being “informed”

    • How to parent with purpose when you're burned out

    • Why joy and connection are survival tools for families

    • What it means to use your privilege without burnout

    • Real talk on relationship tension, social media pressure, and choosing fun on purpose


    Whether you’re at a protest or simply trying to keep your home a refuge, this episode is your reminder: You are doing something powerful just by raising kind kids in a heavy world.

  • HOW You Talk About the Mental Load Matters
    Jun 19 2025

    <⁠https://chelseaskaggs.kit.com/9116bb8436>>

    Once we learned about the mental load, we thought we were on the same page. But that first conversation? It brought up more frustration than clarity. In this episode, we share how our first attempt to talk about the mental load went sideways, the common mistakes couples make in these moments, and the small shifts that helped us move from blame to real teamwork.
    Whether you're just learning about the mental load or you've tried bringing it up (and hit a wall), this episode gives you real talk, relatable moments, and practical ways to start the conversation again — with more connection and less conflict.

  • We Didn’t Know What the Mental Load Was—But It Was Ruining Our Connection
    Jun 18 2025

    <https://chelseaskaggs.kit.com/9116bb8436>>


    For the first 4 years of our parenting journey, we didn’t know what the mental load was, let alone how deeply it was impacting our connection, our communication, and our resentment.

    In this honest conversation, we share what our relationship looked like before we had the words, how the invisible labor kept building tension, and what shifted when we finally named it.

    Whether you're new to the idea of the mental load or you're trying to help your partner understand it, this episode gives you language, validation, and a behind-the-scenes look at how one small vocabulary change can create big relational shifts.
