This Thanksgiving week, we’re doing something a little different. Guided by our teenage daughter, we sat down for a real “getting to know us” Q&A.
In this heartfelt conversation, we reflect on 21 years of marriage, raising three kids across three very different life stages, our career paths, our hopes for the future, and the gifts of the “good old days” we’re living in right now. Along the way, you’ll hear the true story of how we ended up getting married in South Korea, why the proposal is still a running joke, and what it feels like watching our oldest prepare to leave for college.
It’s honest, funny, unexpectedly emotional — and a sweet reminder of why we started The Mental Load Chronicles in the first place: to tell the truth about family life, partnership, and the moments that make us who we are.
