Link to Mads’ Adoption website. Chit chats are our mini-‘sodes; the unplanned chatter that doesn’t quite fit into a format yet at times adds the most value (and laughs!). A fly on our wall, so to speak. This one is a bit unique – Mads asks Erica to press record so she can tell her what’s on her heart related to some movement in the adoption process. This is that conversation. Our DMs @WorkingMomHour are always open, as is Mads’ Instagram @MadsCaldwell if you want to connect on the topic. For adoption support resources, you can reach out to info@adoptionstogether.org or call 301-439-2900.We are building out more spaces to connect!

In Ep. 10, we sit down with Dr. Miriam Kirmayer, a clinical psychologist and friendship expert who has spent a decade sharing the science of connection and helping others build meaningful relationships and fulfilling lives. We discuss the importance of adult friendships, especially as moms. We also cover loneliness, workplace friendships, and friendship break-ups.  Dr. Kirmayer regularly contributes to media outlets like The Atlantic, CNN, Forbes, The Guardian, The New York Times, TIME, and Vogue. According to Madeline, she is doing for friendships what Brene Brown has done for shame. Find Dr. Miriam Kirmayer:WebsiteFacebookTwitterInstagramLinkedInWe are building out more spaces to connect!

And who better to lead this discussion than our creative partner, Marla. Marla helps us run the PR firm, 212 Communications, and she’s the idea person behind a lot of the fun campaigns we do! Mentioned in this podcast:·         Frida Mom Ad·         50 Things You Need To Know About Periods by Claire Baker·         Peloton Ad We are building out more spaces to connect!
