Last episode of 2025 and I think we bring it home well! In this episode, we sit down and talk honestly about parenting as we’re living it right now. We get into the ups and downs of co-sleeping, how stuff from our own childhoods shows up in ways we don’t always expect, and why helping our kids understand their emotions feels just as important as anything else we’re trying to teach them. We share what we’ve learned so far, what we’re still figuring out, and how becoming parents has forced us to grow in ways we never saw coming. It’s really a conversation about connection, being more aware, and accepting that parenting is a constant work in progress, not something you ever fully have “figured out.” 00:00 Introduction and Frame TV Art 01:41 Generational Trauma and Parenting Reflections 02:37 Co-Sleeping: Breaking Parenting Norms 11:38 Parenting Challenges and Emotional Intelligence 23:13 Rethinking Discipline and Gender Roles 35:01 Learning from Children: Wisdom and Empathy 47:36 The Journey of Parenthood: Growth and Change Subscribe to my weekly reflections on Substack Follow The Tired Dad on Instagram Follow The Tired Mom on Instagram Subscribe to Youtube Follow on TikTok Follow on Facebook For partnerships, email
