This week on Two Parents & A Podcast, HAPPY FRIDAY & happy 4th of July weekend!!! 🇺🇸 Today we are answering YOUR questions (about our backgrounds, relationships, kids, anything!!). Quick preview to Monday: TODAY (Friday!!) we are recording an episode IN COLORADO, and we're excited to give you guys the updates on our first family trip. OK ANYWAYS, you guys submitted TONS of questions and we tried to hit as many as we could :-)

The big three we dug into: an update on our joint finances (spoiler: everything we said on the OG money episode is basically no longer true…), how Alex ACTUALLY created her mom community in Austin (it comes down to being on offense, prioritizing moms with kids the same age, and following up), and the biggest differences going from 1 kid to 2 under 2 (from a listener who is about to have baby #2!!). We also get into how Harrison found the bonding experience with Tate & Rocky post-birth (a really thoughtful Q from a dad-to-be), what we thought we'd need in early parenthood but genuinely didn't, and what makes us proud of our family 🥹

Plus a few FUN ones right off the top: what fictional character are we most like according to ChatGPT?! (Also we need to know who you guys are!!!), one thing the audience doesn't know about us (Alex wanted to be a sports anchor?!), and a full deep dive on Jules and her origin story with the pod (all you guys need to know is I thought I was meeting up with Alex for an interview and she just started giving me all of her passwords hahahahaha -Jules).

If you're new here or a longtime listener, we hope this Q&A gives you tons of new tidbits - and thank you for the amazing questions!!

LOVE YOU GUYS & happy 4th!!
