Parents… Y’all Good? | Parenting, Social Media, Mental Health & Being Watched | Ep. 9
Parents… y’all good? 👀 Because raising kids, maintaining your own identity, navigating social media, and trying to keep up with the world today is A LOT. In Episode 9 of the Family Business Podcast, Rome and Kassani are back with another real, unfiltered conversation about life, family, parenting, social media, technology, and everything in between. We start by catching up on life, celebrating the release and early success of Rome’s book The Rules to Rule, and talking about something almost every creator eventually experiences: people who somehow turn your success into something personal. Why does simply being proud of what you’re building sometimes look like “bragging” to somebody else? Then things get deeper. We talk about the Lindsay Clancy case, postpartum mental health, responsibility, and how quickly opinions on social media can become accepted as facts without people ever researching the full story. That leads us into another question: Are we already being watched more than we realize? From Flock license-plate cameras and police body cameras to Ring cameras, smartphones, location tracking, targeted ads, and AI—we debate the line between privacy, safety, security, and technology. And finally, we check in with the parents. Because sometimes everybody asks about the kids, the house, the job, and the family…but when was the last time somebody asked: How are YOU doing? We get into: • Parent burnout and making time for yourself • Why parents shouldn’t feel guilty for needing a break • The pressure to create the “perfect childhood” • Overscheduling kids with sports and activities • Things we judged parents for before becoming parents ourselves • Watching your child grow up faster than you expected • The physical vs. emotional exhaustion of parenting • Our experience raising a teenager with different needs • And, of course…why sometimes you just have to GET YOUR KIDS. 😂 Family Business is about the conversations that actually happen when the cameras aren’t rolling—marriage, parenting, careers, family, growth, culture, and figuring life out together. 💬 QUESTION OF THE EPISODE: Parents, when was the last time you genuinely took time for yourself—and what does a “break” look like for you?
