Bite Your Tongue: The Podcast

Send us a text

When we think of Mother's Day, we often envision breakfast in bed or a sweet card, but the truth is, the gifts that mothers cherish most are the bonds they share with their children, no matter their age.

That is what we hear today from our guests. Mary Dell Harrington and Lisa Heffernan. They are the founders of Grown & Flown, the very popular website and social media stops. Together, we unpack the transition from managing a bustling household to adapting to an 'empty nest', and how this shift doesn't mean the end of parenting, but the beginning of a new chapter.

We get a behind the scenes look at how they started, what is the most valuable advice they've learned and what they see on the horizon.

We talk about so much including:

• Adapting different strategies for each child's unique needs
• Significance of Mother's Day to many and how to set clear expectations
• Multi-generation living and why taking the failure out of "failure to launch" is so important
• How the pandemic has re-shaped our understanding of family living situations.
• Complexities of financial support and how to handle it
• Spirituality, mental health and so much more.
