This episode is all about keeping it real while keeping it together. Ajiri and I dive into the messy, magical world of modern motherhood—less “soccer mom,” more “martini in hand, figuring it out.” We get into how the French make parenting look effortlessly chic (spoiler: no bento boxes) and talk about finding joy that isn’t just for Instagram. Ajiri shares her wisdom on sneaking in solo weekends, guilt-free hosting hacks, and why modeling joy for your kids is the ultimate flex. It’s part therapy, part pep talk, and honestly, it’s all the vibes you didn’t know you needed.
The books Ajiri refers to in the interview are :
Binging up Bebe - Pamela Druckerman
Stolen Focus: Why You Can't Pay Attention--and How to Think Deeply Again - Johann Hari
