From sundresses to sweatpants, join Eleisha and Ali as they unpack the messy, magical, and meaningful sides of motherhood (aka the ultimate DIY project). With baby #3 on the way for Ali, the sisters reflect on parenting with purpose, embracing imperfections, and what it means to raise kids (and hope) sustainably. In this intimate Q&A-style season one sendoff, they share lessons learned, eco-habits passed down, and how their views on low-waste living have evolved through motherhood.
Key Takeaways
- Expectations vs. Reality: When whimsical art projects become real-life paint-eating incidents
- Mom Superpowers: Whether it’s calming a toddler mid-meltdown or spotting when something isn’t working
- Sustainable Parenting: Normalizing cloth diapers, composting, and refillable deodorants
- Identity and Balance: How motherhood shifts your sense of self, and why sometimes "just getting through the day" is more than enough
