Summary
This week on Sheena Interrupted , we are looking back at 2016, when we had two little kids, a camera roll full of smiling selfies, and no idea how depleted we actually were. We talk candidly about that season and what ten years of perspective has shown us. We weren’t behind. We were just in it. We (TRID) also spiraled about leftover confetti from our 100th episode, took an unexpected but very serious glaucoma detour, and listened to TRID pitch a plan involving a random Chad or possibly a goat to boost our views. If you’re navigating parenting, career pressure, or a season that feels heavier than you expected, this episode is for you. This week's sponsor: MintMobile.com/Sheena
