Today we are tackling something that every mom is feeling right now, the back to school tidal wave. If it feels more like a looming deadline vs. a fresh start then you are not alone. I know in our household our kids are already disappointed that their days of sleeping in and relaxing evenings without homework are numbered. As a mom I am starting to look at my workblocks in the day and realizing that they will need to shift. Soon a lot of my time will be dedicated to my part time job as an unpaid Uber driver, especially after our three kids each join different flag football teams, each with a different schedule. In today's episode we will be focusing on: the common struggles and pitfalls with transitioning back to the school schedule, mindset shifts we need to make, and something special I created just for YOU to help make this transition a bit easier and more fun. Grab your favorite cool summer drink and let’s jump in.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
