Nihilist Penguin, Being Weird, Deep Thinking, and Doom Scrolling
About this episode
Jess and the host discuss navigating chaos in parenting, mental health, and identity amidst challenges.
In this episode, Jess and I talk about life in the middle of chaos, from getting snowed in to helping our kids process the loss of a pet. We also dive into the “Nihilist Penguin” idea and what it says about identity, social media, and mental health. At the core, we’re just trying to raise kids who feel safe being themselves, in a home built on acceptance, creativity, and love. We’re figuring it out as we go.
