The Myth of “Having It All” with Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt
Katherine Schwarzenegger Pratt is officially done chasing “balance”, because, as she tells Kristin, it doesn’t exist. In this funny, honest, and deeply relatable conversation, Katherine opens up about the pressures of “doing it all,” the guilt that comes with motherhood, and the boundaries she’s learning to hold as a mom of three. She shares what protecting her peace looks like in real time: saying no, slowing down, and letting herself be imperfect. Plus, Katherine passes along game changing piece of advice her mom, Maria Shriver, taught her about keeping a family close: the importance of naming your family values out loud, revisiting them often, and making sure everyone knows what your home stands for. It’s simple, profound, and truly game-changing advice every family needs.Together, she and Kristin unpack what it means to redefine success and replace the pressure with presence. It’s refreshing, hilarious, and full of heart, the kind of chat that makes you feel instantly lighter.You’ll walk away with:1. Katherine’s hard-earned lessons on letting go of the “supermom” myth.2. Practical ways to set boundaries and protect your peace, guilt-free.3. The reminder that dropping the ball isn’t failure…it’s freedom.Get Katherine's new book, Kat and Brandy here! https://amzn.to/4orFNSOThis episode may contain paid endorsements and advertisements for products and services.

Real talk? Modern parenting is a doozy. There’s never been more pressure to be perfect with social media readily at our fingertips - mixed with total isolation and no help. Where the f*ck is that village everyone talks about? Consider After Bedtime your village. Led by Kristin and Deena - founders of the largest online parenting community, Big Little Feelings - After Bedtime is the place you can go at the end of a long hard day to find your “enough”-ness. We’ll laugh, we’ll cry, we’ll maybe pee our pants a little as we unpack things we’re ALL experiencing but too ashamed to talk about: imperfect marriages, miscarriages, managing toddler mania, apologizing to our kids and everything in between. You’ll leave with actionable, realistic tips to make this whole parenting thing smoother - small changes, big impact. In an age where parents need more *real* connection than ever, let’s talk honestly about the hard - and remind ourselves we are not alone, we are not failing. In fact, we’re f*cking crushing it.
