What This Summer Taught Us About What We Actually Want (opens the original)
Read excerpt
As Summer is coming to an end, Mikaela and Cebrina are catching up on the things that made this season memorable. The trips, treats, shows, products, kid chaos, favorite moments, and a few things that sounded much better in theory.

They talk about letting go of control, carrying the emotional loa
Why Moms Feel Like They've Lost Themselves (What Hilary Duff Got Right) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Something happened at one of Hilary Duff's recent concerts that resonated with an entire generation of women, and it wasn't a song. For many of us, Hilary was the soundtrack to our childhood. We grew up watching Lizzie McGuire, singing along to "Come Clean," and dreaming about who we'd become.

Parenting Hot Takes Part 1: Screen Time, Swearing & Sugar (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Do babies really need TV? Should kids be allowed to swear? Are sleepovers actually worth the risk? This week we're sharing some of our biggest parenting hot takes and the conversations they spark. From screen time and sugar to social media, sleepovers, and even whether parents should read their kids' texts, we're unpacking the parenting decisions that seem to divide everyone. This isn't about convincing anyone that our way is the right way. It's about questioning the rules we've inherited, talki
