What's Out and What's In
Have you ever managed to follow through on a New Year's Resolution? It seems like every year we set ourselves up to fail. For these moms a resolution is just be another thing they "might" get to next year. But this year across social media there was a shift. Instead of making resolutions, people started asking themselves what they were leaving behind in 2023 and welcoming in 2024. So join us this week as the moms discuss what's out and what's in for 2024. "Drink More Water" of course is still 100% In!
