Growing Up Is Hard on the Grown-Ups

In this totally unplanned and very authentic episode, we have a conversation about the back-to-school feels—and somehow end up talking about how quickly life changes.Tonya’s oldest grandchild is heading off to kindergarten, and after 5½ years of sleepovers, adventures, routines and making memories together, she’s realizing that this milestone isn’t just a big change for her granddaughter. It’s a new chapter in their relationship, too.Angie is watching another back-to-school tradition unfold in her own family as her nephews head back to school. But this year, the family photo looks a little different. Two of the oldest have already graduated college, and suddenly there are fewer kids in the picture than there used to be. How did THAT happen?!Along the way, we talk about the bittersweet reality of watching kids grow up, the memories we hold onto, the changing dynamics of family, and why milestones like the first day of school can make us stop and appreciate just how fast time flies.And, of course, we want to give a huge shoutout to the teachers, administrators, support staff, bus drivers, counselors and everyone else who makes our schools work. You’re shaping lives every single day—and we appreciate you more than you know.It’s a little nostalgic, a little funny, and a whole lot of real-life conversation. Because sometimes the best podcast conversations are the ones you didn’t plan. https://www.youtube.com/@SimplyAuthenticPodcasthttps://www.gershman.com/loan-officers/jack-langley/https://gatozarks.com/https://www.arvesthomeloan.com/jdressler.htmlhttps://www.bigfootfunpark.com/https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100066937632311 https://simplyauthenticpod.com/
