Description

Welcome to The Ordinary Family Podcast! Where we celebrate the beauty in everyday family life! Whether you're trying to find time for an uninterrupted conversation with your partner, tackling the mountain of laundry or dishes, trying to keep your children alive, or just trying to figure out what’s for dinner, this is the place where real conversations happen about the highs, lows, and everything in between. This podcast is dedicated to everyone who is trying to make a living, build a strong relationship with your partner, raise good humans, and take care of yourself—because doing all this, some days, feels like more than an ordinary person can do. Our goal is to help you thrive in every area of your life: at home, at work, and in your community. Join your hosts, Coleman (marriage and family coach) and Abby (yoga teacher and homeschool enrichment business owner) as we explore the art of marriage, parenting and navigating life with honesty, humor, and support. We’ll share with you the tools we use, hilarious stories, and all the insights we’ve gained from being married for 15 years, parents for 11 years, and many more years of life and work experience. Have a question or comment to share? We'd love to hear from you!
