In this week’s episode (Practical Reminders for a Healthier Household) we share what we’ll be doing to celebrate our 100th episode of The Mom Voice! (What?! How did we get here!?). The 100th episode will be airing on Monday, Feb. 1st so make sure you’re subscribed – we have a fun show planned for that day where you’ll learn a few fun things about us you may not have ever guessed! To celebrate this landmark of ours, we’re going to be giving one listener a relaxing night away (the dream!). We’re going to cover a 1-night stay in a hotel and a $50 DoorDash gift card. Our hope is that our winner will have a night to relax, watch some movies, eat their favorite food and recharge! To enter, we’re just asking that you leave us a review wherever you listen – telling us what you like about the show! We will then be hand-selecting 1 listener for giveaway.
We’ve often mentioned on the show how the podcast can be a “one-way” channel at times. We are SO HAPPY to be here and just love sharing our lives with you – but we want your feedback! So, go listen to the show opener of this week’s episode for full details – and good luck!! We really do appreciate every single mama out there listening and think you’re doing the most important work!! xo Lauren & Sarah
