Why Playing with Your Kids Feels So Damn Hard (and Why You’re Still Doing a Damn Good Job)

Let’s be real—playing with your kids sounds simple… until you sit down and realize you have no idea what you’re doing. If you grew up in a house where “play” meant being dropped off at your cousin’s with a Capri Sun and vibes, then this episode is for you.

I (Yvette) gets raw, hilarious, and heartbreakingly honest about what it’s like trying to be a present, playful parent while healing your own childhood wounds. From freeze moments and awkward imaginary games to realizing your kids are teaching you how to be free—this one’s got it all.

This episode is a hug for the parents who never got to be kids, but are learning to play anyway. Because your presence matters. Even if your raccoon voice is a little off.
