Mojo Mom Podcast and Equally Shared Parenting


I am excited about this week's Mojo Mom Podcast with guests Amy and Marc Vachon, experts on Equally Shared Parenting.

I've learned a lot from the Vachons, in particular the idea that Equally Shared Parenting is about parents being equally invested in their roles. It's not about scorekeeping and frequent-parenting miles, it's about taking ownership of your roles as family leaders.

Listen in to this week's show now:



It's the week after college graduation in North Carolina, and Amy asks her co-host Sheryl Grant about the ways that Sheryl's family helped her along the way as she worked toward her Master's Degree in Information and Library Science. We celebrate her success!

Then Amy talks to Equally Shared Parenting (ESP) experts Amy and Marc Vachon. ESP is currently reaching a tipping point in the media and society. It's so interesting to see how an outspoken couple can help advance a movement that has been built upon existing ideas and sociological research. Listen in as Mojo Mom asks for advice in her own family, and the Vachons get right to the heart of the matter. Then visit the Equally Shared Parenting website to learn more about the strategy that promises "half the work, all the fun."

Amy,

Just wanted to say that I am a big fan of your blog, podcast, and book. I'm not a mother yet but I'm considering trying to conceive and Mojo Mom has been a welcome relief from all of the negative press out there about motherhood. You offer a refreshingly down to earth and balances approach to motherhood. Thanks for sharing! -Abbie
