We were both raised by a single mom, and come from humble beginnings. Although there wasn’t a lot of money and “silver spoons”, our siblings and us were all flooded with a lot of love; and our moms taught us some valuable life lessons. Some of them we share in this episode.

Being a single parent is a difficult job, especially with multiple kids. And, because of that, unfortunately we didn’t always get the attention or lessons we needed regarding emotional maturity, finances, relationships, and more. So, also in this episode, we talk about the things we didn’t learn from our parents that we only learned when we became parents ourselves.

Join us in this interesting discussion and let’s continue the conversation on social media.
