The Parenting Struggle is Real - Our Toughest Parenting Challenges and Lessons Learned

In this episode, we share our toughest parenting moments and the lessons we've learned along the way! Preparing for this episode was relatively easy since we have so much to discuss, but don’t worry—we’ve got some helpful tips for you as well! We’ll be discussing: Sleep deprivation with newborns and tips for healthy sleep habits for your children.   Challenges of balancing work and family life.   The impact of different disciplinary styles on children.   Financial strains. Our eldest child's nut allergy.   The importance of self-care for parents.   We hope this episode makes you feel seen and offers some comfort in knowing that you are not alone in the struggles that come with parenting! As always, we would love to hear your stories and challenges. Feel free to reach out to us at emilynorrisloves@gmail.com.

Join Emily and Matt Norris as they pull back the curtain on real-life parenting, the highs and lows of marriage, and everything in between. With 20 years together, three kids, a dog, and a home renovation under their belts, Emily brings her signature positivity and practical tips, while Matt keeps things grounded with his honest, often humorous, dad’s-eye view. Expect raw and relatable chats, lessons learned (and mistakes made), and the advice they wish they had heard sooner. Whether you’re in the thick of parenting or just love a good family chat, What They Don’t Tell You (but we will!) is here to tell you what no one else does – with warmth, wit, and a touch of British moaning. Parenting, marriage, and family life – no one hands you a manual, but we’re here to share what we’ve learned along the way. New episodes every Monday
