Susan Koeppen - Packing Everyday to the Brim and Living Life to the Fullest

Author: 105.9 The X (WXDX-FM) April 18, 2019 Duration: 1:04:59
This week we sit down with Emmy award winning journalist and KDKA anchor Susan Koeppen! She takes us back to her time working at CBS in New York City and explains how raising her family changed forever after a run through Shadyside with friends nearly ended her life. Her parenting philosophy since recovery is all about packing everyday to the brim and living life to the fullest, but she’s learning to be flexible enough to chillax with the kids every once and awhile. Come for the stories about her dare devil sons and how she lost her daughter in the mountains of Colorado, stay for the tales about being raised by a tough Italian mom who ruled with a brown belt! Please sit back and enjoy this week’s episode.

Abby Krizner from 105.9 The X and Bill Crawford from 102.5 DVE are your guides through the beautiful, messy reality of raising kids. Their The Parentcast is a weekly conversation that feels like grabbing coffee with friends who get it-the ones you can be completely real with. Forget perfect parenting advice; this is about shared experiences, from the hilarious misadventures to the moments that leave you utterly bewildered. They believe in learning through stories, venting without judgment, and finding the humor in the daily chaos. Every episode brings a new guest into the mix, offering fresh perspectives and practical insights on everything from sleepless nights with newborns to navigating the complex world of teenagers. It’s a resource for anyone on the journey, whether you’re anxiously awaiting your first child or deep in the trenches with a full house. Tune in to this candid podcast for a sense of solidarity and a reminder that you’re not figuring it out alone.
