I feel so much of what you both are speaking of here. This was very good to hear. Knowing you aren't alone in these feelings means so much. Great podcast, ladies ❤

The dinner thing in your book struck me as well - wife & I love to cook, but when suddenly it is all day every day especially as a mom staying home. For me, I loved cooking as a kid and my parents were happy to let me cook 1-2 meals per week of my choice … but then in college I was the steward for our fraternity which meant meal planning, groceries, budgeting, and so on for ~40 people 24/7 for a year! Talk about taking the joy out of things! We did the ‘one fixed meal, together’ thing and it worked well for us - but for many friends it didn’t. (Our kids were/are very routine oriented) And it isn’t worth killing yourself to fit someone else’s ideal.
