On this episode, we kick things off with a fun but important chat inspired by @twolittlestolove’s viral reel; yes, we’re talking beach and pool toy manners! Because let’s be honest, teaching our kids how to play respectfully in public spaces is one of those small-but-mighty life skills that sets the tone for lifelong kindness and boundaries. Then we dive into a conversation about homeschooling; what it looks like for our families, what we’ve learned along the way, and how we’re weaving values like self-worth, emotional regulation, and curiosity into the heart of our children’s education. Whether you’re homeschooling full-time, after-schooling, or just curious about what a values-based approach to learning looks like, this one’s for you. Enjoy!

Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship.
