215. Get The Wiggles Out

Feelings & Co
About this episode

As a parent, we teach our kids lots of important and unimportant things. As they get older, it’s fun to see what sticks. 

 

“It’s Going To Be OK” is a daily podcast from Feelings and Co. Each morning, we bring you a short story, essay, or interview about one thing that makes us (or our guests) feel like it might not all be so bad – even if some things are. Share your OK thing at 612.568.4441 or by emailing IGTBO@feelingsand.co.

The IGTBO team is Nora McInerny, Megan Palmer, Claire McInerny, Marcel Malekebu, Amanda Romani and Michelle Plantan.

The transcript for this episode can be found here.
