Ep. 349: How Are You? Plus, Seeing Gender with Iris Gottlieb

Biz and Theresa ask a very important question: How are you? No, really...how are you? We dedicate the entire topic to exploring this question that, although never has a simple answer, has become even more complicated. Have we figured out how to homeschool? Is there crying in homeschool?  Have we figured out our routines? Is crying part of the routine? Are we tired of questions and ready for complete silence by 3 pm everyday? Yes. Hard yes.  Plus, Biz doesn't want to be competitive, Theresa starts a day, and we talk to Iris Gottlieb about her new book, Seeing Gender.

Find out more about Iris' work on her website at Irisgottlieb.com and follow her on Instagram at IrisGottlieb. Her book Seeing Gender is available now and we highly recommend it!
