Got a question for me? Send me a text! It’s Jess squared! In this episode, I’m joined by my very first guest, Jess from Shore Peddlin’! We sat down on Monday, October 26, to talk about leaving her job with the school board, starting a vintage ice cream bike business, and taking a chance on herself. We get into the scary parts of starting something new, worrying about what people think, finding work you actually enjoy, and making more time for family. There’s also a story about an ice cream delivery disaster that definitely wasn’t funny at the time. 😂 Before our conversation, I’m catching you up on wedding dress shopping with Laura & Lori, a family day in the Valley, pumpkin carving, and a thoughtful gift from a friend I met through TikTok 🫶🏻 That catch up was recorded on Wednesday, October 28.

Got a question for me? Send me a text! This week, we’re wrapping up Season 1 with a really honest conversation about our family dynamic. What it looks like, how it works, and how it’s different from the “traditional” idea of a family. We talk about Abby growing up with two moms, the roles we each play, and Katie joins us on the podcast to share her perspective. We get into parenting differences, how we handle conflict, and what we actually love about not having a man in the house. We also touch on communication, meeting each other halfway, and what makes our dynamic work in real life. Plus, we get into our Hot or Not topics: double texting, claw clips, matching outfits with your partner, “grandma hobbies,” and being brutally honest, along with our slays and struggles of the week. Thank you so much for listening and supporting us through Season 1. It honestly means more than you probably realize. We’re taking a short break, but we’ll be back before you know it, and we can’t wait for what’s next 💗 Follow along: TikTok: @jesscreelman  Instagram: @likemotherlikedaughtershow If this podcast has ever made you feel understood or a little less alone, you can support the show through our listener support link.

Got a question for me? Send me a text! This week, we’re talking about communication between parents and teens, why it changes, why conversations start to feel harder, and what might be causing it. We get into things like timing, overreacting, feeling embarrassed, and why teens don’t always open up the way they used to. We also talk about how not everything should be taken personally, and what actually helps create a space where conversations feel easier. It’s a real, honest look at both sides, and what it takes to meet in the middle.

Got a question for me? Send me a text! This week, we’re talking about teen friendships. What makes them strong, how they change over time, and why some don’t last. We get into how friendships start so easily, what actually makes someone a good friend, and how expectations can look completely different depending on the person. From there, we talk about how friendships function now: what “being close” even means, how social media plays into it, and the difference between staying in contact vs actually feeling connected. We also get into boundaries vs loyalty, and how knowing when to protect your peace can sometimes change a friendship entirely. Then we talk about the harder part, when things start to shift. The slow changes, the distance, and those moments where you can feel a friendship isn’t the same anymore… even if nothing specific happened. We also touch on friendship breakups, the lack of closure, and how easy it is to fall into blaming yourself or the other person instead of actually understanding what changed. And finally, we talk about outgrowing friendships. When nothing went wrong, but you’re just not in the same place anymore, and what those relationships still teach you, even after they end. As always, it’s a real, honest conversation that a lot of people will be able to relate to.

Got a question for me? Send me a text! This week, we’re talking about teenagers dating, boundaries, and privacy. Using an article as a starting point, we break down what dating looks like for teenagers today and how expectations have changed. From there, we get into the bigger conversation—how much parents should know, where boundaries should be set, and how trust plays a role in everything. It’s a mix of perspectives, honest opinions, and a conversation a lot of people can relate to.

Got a question for me? Send me a text! Abby shares some of the things she did growing up that she never told me (until now), and I may or may not admit to a few things I’ve done as a mom that she definitely didn’t know about either… including a questionable snack swap and some laundry decisions 😭 It’s not serious at all, just a lot of laughing, exposing ourselves a little, and realizing we’ve both been getting away with more than we thought. We also get into this week’s Hot or Not, including 10-step skincare routines, baggy jeans, fake freckles, voice notes, and “talking” without ever actually meeting up. Plus, our Slay & Struggle of the week, from sleeping through school (oops 😅) to feeling overwhelmed, and a few wins we’re actually really proud of. As always, it’s real, it’s funny, and it’s very us.

Got a question for me? Send me a text! Sometimes the hardest conversations are the ones that help us grow the most. Jess and Abby continue sharing their story, reflecting on the early years after Abby moved back home. They talk about early mornings bussing and walking to school, the messy years of figuring life out, and the moment Jess taught herself how to drive just to create a better life for them. The conversation then shifts into a more difficult chapter as Abby opens up about becoming a big sister, growing up with an inconsistent father and learning about his struggles with addiction. Abby shares what it was like navigating that relationship, including the moment she saw him in court and finally spoke her truth.

Got a question for me? Send me a text! This episode takes us back to where it all began. I was 16 and pregnant. Scared, unsure, and not ready for how much my life was about to change. We talk honestly about my pregnancy, the instability in my relationship at the time, and the early years after Abby was born, including the parts I wish I had handled differently. This isn’t about excuses. It’s about growth, perspective, and how those early years shaped who we are today. Our story didn’t start perfectly, but it started here.  Follow along: TikTok: @jesscreelman Instagram: @likemotherlikedaughtershow If this podcast makes you feel understood or a little less alone, you can support the show through our listener support link.

Got a question for me? Send me a text! This first episode is a little sneak peak to who we are and how we got here. We talk about what it was like becoming a young mom, the mistakes and growing pains along the way, and the moment everything started to change. Abby shares what it was like growing up from her perspective. What she remembers, what she never noticed, and how she sees our relationship today. We talk about feeling safe at home, learning to understand each other, and how our relationship is different from a lot of other parent-teen relationships. From phone rules and trust to structure and stability, this episode is about how we learned to grow together instead of growing apart. This is just the beginning of our story, and we’ve only scratched the surface. If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re doing parenting right… or wished your parent understood you better… you’re not alone here. New episodes coming soon.
