🎙 Nature vs. Nurture – How Much of Who We Are is Because of Mom (and Dad)

🔹 Episode Summary:
 Are we born this way… or did our parents make us this way? In this episode of I Get It From My Mom, Elissa, Ava, and Maggie dive into the age-old debate of Nature vs. Nurture. From emotional habits to sense of humor, salty vs. sweet preferences to zodiac signs and birth order—they break down:

✅ What traits are definitely genetic vs. totally learned
✅ What are the debatable qualities that are possibly a combination of nature and nurture
✅ Whether your star sign or birth order actually explains your personality
✅ If it’s possible to really change who you are—or if we’re all just our parents with better playlists

With plenty of laughs and some surprising insights, this episode explores how much of who we are is in our DNA… and how much we choose along the way.

🎧 Listen now to hear who’s the most stubborn, who’s the biggest planner, and who blames Mom the most (spoiler: it’s all in good fun).

🔹 Takeaways & Challenges:
 📌 Parents—some things about your kids just are. Support them instead of trying to “fix” them.
📌 Kids—just because you inherited something doesn’t mean you’re stuck with it. Own it—or shape it.
📌 Everyone—ask yourself: What’s one thing you love (or hate) that you know came from your family?
