About this episode
Amanda discusses communication in parenting and shares personal life updates.
In this episode of After Hours With Amanda, I’m catching up on life, Disney World, Nat Geo, the toaster saga, working mom rhythms, and some very exciting Florida news with the tiny queens. Then we get into the heart of it: is your communication actually conveying your message? I talk about a parenting moment that reminded me intent and impact are not always the same, why volume matters, and how I’m trying to build communication for the relationship I want with my girls long term. Start with love. Seek understanding. Do not lose the plot in your passion. 00:00 Showing Up However We Can 01:18 Life Updates and the Toaster Saga 04:13 Gummies, Tahoe, and Catching Up 06:15 Disney World Was Its Own Girl 09:01 Nat Geo, Animal Kingdom, and Big Dreams 12:19 Florida News With the Tiny Queens 16:02 Starlight, Girls Trip, and Work Logistics 18:28 Podcast Consistency and YouTube Plans 20:12 Is Your Communication Conveying Your Message? 22:29 Building Communication for the Future 25:37 When the Message Gets Missed 28:07 Intent, Impact, and Volume 32:34 Start With Love, Seek Understanding 34:36 Parenting, Partnership, and New Tools 38:00 Never Give Up on Yourself or Your Dreams
