“I used to really enjoy this show! I have also benefited from Laura’s earlier books. However, after hearing all about the significant outsourced help, global family travel, huge house with renovations, high-end gourmet restaurant outings, expensive 1:1 child playdates and overnight trips I realized that this podcast makes me feel like my life doesn’t measure up. This is sad and unnecessary, as both Laura and Sarah are very bright, hardworking women. The virtue signaling and wealth flaunting have no place here. These episodes could even unintentionally send a message to women that you have to be married to a very high earning husband to have the best of both worlds. That is not true.
One of the unstated but felt messages is that your worth is dependent on what you have and/or do. This is fleeting and dangerous. I have been fortunate to be successful professionally and financially. I could likely afford many of the luxuries that are woven into these episodes. However, from a faith based perspective I know my value is inherent in the God who created me, not the transient wealth that is showcased here. It’s best for me to no longer listen.”
