Today's episode of the Vibrantly You® Podcast is slightly different; we share behind-the-scenes of mom life.

We both went through the transition from 1 to 2 kids at the same time, and both found it way more challenging than we anticipated.

We are sharing those experiences today and hope you find it helpful if you are approaching this transition yourself, or currently going through it!
