The Life-Changing Magic Of Opting Out AND Of Arbitrary Rules: Episode 493 [Classic Replay Double Feature!]

It's Thanksgiving week here in the U.S., and we're welcoming you around our tables with not one but TWO classic episodes from the archives. Enjoy the double-feature, and we'll talk to you soon!

The Life-Changing Magic Of Opting Out (Episode 161)

No one mom “does it all”–or so we’re told. But what exactly DON’T we do? In Episode 161 Meagan and Sarah share our experience finding ways to opt out of the little (and sometimes not-so-little) tasks and obligations that aren’t meaningful to us as moms, making room for more of what is.

The Life-Changing Magic Of Arbitrary Rules (Episode 173)

Why? Because I said so. Has a nice ring to it, right? Even better, though (and more specific): because it’s a rule in our house. In Episode 173 Meagan and Sarah are talking about the beauty and hilarity of arbitrary rules, drawing from our own experience and some genius listener suggestions.
