25. How We Parent in the Pandemic One Year Later

LISTEN TO THE FULL EPISODE!

In this very special episode of the Pandemic Mama podcast, Irina asked some of the past guests to share what they have been up to since their episodes aired and reflect on the last year of parenting as we recognize and mourn a full year of living in the COVID-19 pandemic.
