Afternoon! I have a friend looking to move to Austin before their kiddo starts Kindergarten. They were set on Eanes but with all the recent announcements (Valley View closing, Spanish immersion struggling) they are expanding their search. Anyone have intel on this either in Eanes or elsewhere in Austin? They are open to public or private school. Thanks!

I am looking for a thrive mascara dupes that doesn't result in raccoon eyes?? Reviews on these at Target are all over the place.

If not I'll continue to pay $30 and order through their annoying website. Lord knows I can't trust Amazon's authenticity with my gorgeous lashes.

I know you love your husband and so do I. I’m not considering getting a divorce but sometimes I wonder if I married the right person. Did I get married too young? Idk, I love him I just don’t know if it would be different if we met later in life.

What are y’all getting your girlfriends who have everything for their bdays?

Needing a really good book to listen to. I like historical fiction the most. No sci fi - no thrillers. Been on a streak of not so great books so I want something you would read more than once.

What series is everyone watching? We have liked House of Cards, Yellowstone, Quarterbacks, Stranger Things, Billions, Succession. Looking for something my husband and I can watch together.

Hey mamas! If you feel comfortable, would you share with me about spider veins/varicose veins treatment? I have some on my legs that I’m really self conscious of and one is starting to feel uncomfortable. My question is specifically relating to treatment and billing. Has anyone used a successful treatment in which the doctor was able to bill insurance? Bonus points if it’s not too painful… I can be a wimp. 😬 Thanks so much in advance!

What do you do when your almost 2 year old is scared of their shadow? Like screaming terrified…

So our pediatrician just let us know that our 7yr old might start experiencing body changes. Not expecting that. How should I start talking to her?

My 2nd grader refuses to do her homework. Is this normal? It is a struggle every.single.day. The assignment can be something as simple as read for 5 mins., she will read for 3 mins. Math hw: Complete pages 1 and 2. She will complete page 1 and refuse to do 2.

What am I missing? What could be the reasons for this? She has no learning disabilities that I know of.

I feel like my 4yr old boy is very healthy and 43lbs. The pediatrician labeled him as obese. Like WHAT??? Does that track? He looks proportionate to me

How are you guys limiting your kid’s sugar intake without causing eating issues?

I knowwwww my kids should do chores but I’m utterly exhausted and it’s one more battle I’m not sure I’m up for fighting. Any good systems to get things going?

Hi!

So many of my fiends have added Chaga Mushrooms to their morning routine after working with a functional medicine doctor. What does this help with? Also looking for a functional expert to chime in on other things I could add to my routine (electrolytes, trace minerrals power pack, omegas??). What else do we need to function as a Power Mom these days lol.

Oof loaded question. Am I doing this right? Work and home life balance is so stressful. Owning your own business and managing family is so much. I wish I had more friends in the same shoes of owning a business and managing family. Would give anything to hVe some perspective from that angle.

Birthday parties, there are so many and they are expensive when buying gifts. Is it okay to not go when they are not close friends?

Has anyone used a parenting coach for helping get a hold on your household? I feel like my house is spiraling out of control and my kids do not listen. Honestly I’m embarrassed
