3 Key Episode Takeaways
Daniel and Christina Seong remove the filters and makeup to bring you raw, unedited truths about parenting, marriage, and the inevitable exhaustion of trying to juggle it all. They chat about:
- Authenticity Over Perfection: We believe in keeping it real. There's no makeup, no high-end production—just genuine discussions about the highs and lows of life.
- Choice in Parenting: Whether it's deciding to be a stay-at-home parent or balancing a career while raising children, every choice is valid and should be respected. There's no one-size-fits-all approach to raising a family.
