How to Be a Grownup: A Humorous Guide for Moms, with CK & GK

Author: Caitlin Kindred Language: English Episodes: 100
Ever feel like you're just winging this whole adulthood thing, especially with kids in the mix? You're not alone. How to Be a Grownup: A Humorous Guide for Moms, with CK & GK is the conversation you need with your most honest, funny friends. Hosts Jenny GK and Caitlin Kindred-Caitlin being a former Texas middle school teacher and current mom-speak directly to elder millennial mothers navigating the messy, unscripted parts of life. This podcast digs into the practical, often overlooked skills and topics that no one ever sat down to teach us. That means real talk about managing adult ADHD as a woman, deciphering which home products are actually worth the money (they have strong feelings about appliances), and tackling the home maintenance tasks that can't be postponed any longer. They also venture into civic engagement and other grown-up responsibilities, all while maintaining a sense of humor about the constant need to search for answers online. It’s a blend of education and comedy that feels like a relief, acknowledging that figuring it out as you go, with a lot of laughter and shared confessions, is a perfectly valid way to parent and live. Tune in for a dose of solidarity and surprisingly useful advice, all delivered without any pretense of having it all figured out.
