What’s in a name? Well, when it comes to our little ones, everything from cultural significance to hope-fueled aspirations. Join me, our guest Lorenzo Bernardus Jr, and my co-hosts Jax and Johnny, as we unravel the tales behind our children’s monikers. What’s in a name? Well, when it comes to our little ones, everything from cultural significance to hope-fueled aspirations. Join us, our guest Lorenzo Bernardez Jr as we unravel the tales behind our children’s monikers. From Jax’s melodic choice of Cadence to Lorenzo's rock-inspired Hendrix and Lennox, we celebrate the creativity and sometimes contentious journey of naming our offspring. We don’t just stop at names; we delve into how the arrival of children can reshape relationships, challenge societal norms, and sometimes lead down the path of unexpected pregnancies, marriage, and even divorce.

Parenthood is rarely a solo act, and this episode isn't shy about the complexities of sharing the stage. Discover how we navigate the uncharted waters of new partners, co-parenting, and the times when family extends beyond those we’ve known from birth. We share firsthand the emotional whirlwind that hits when long-lost siblings emerge, transforming family dynamics and personal identities in ways one can hardly predict. The power of sincere apologies and the delicate timing of introducing children to new significant others is dissected, with an aim to foster a discussion on co-parenting without the drama.

Finally, we spotlight the pivotal role of mentorship as we venture into the trenches of high school guidance. Hear how we, alongside educators and mentors, strive to steer youth through the murky waters of socio-economic expectations, aiming to prepare them for the real world, one slice of pizza and heart-to-heart at a time. And for a touch of levity, we recount a quirky Hollywood Boulevard encounter before circling back to the heart of our discussions. Tune in for an episode that promises to resonate with fellow parents, mentors, and anyone who’s experienced the unpredictable yet fulfilling adventure that is guiding the next generation.
