Always at Odds with Grandma | Twin Mom Elizabeth Agostino

Twiniversity Podcast with Natalie Diaz

EXPLICIT LANGUAGE WARNING! (you may want to use headphones if kids are in earshot)

In the premiere episode of season 9, Nat chats with twin mom Elizabeth Agostino, mom to 4-year-old twin girls, about her tension-filled, negative relationship with her mother and how it's affecting her and her parenting. Lizzie also shares what she's doing now to try to break the negativity cycle with her own girls.

Today's podcast is sponsored by Dr. Brown's. Visit their website to learn all about their bottles, bottle feeding accessories, training sippy cups, and more at drbrownsbaby.com.

Elizabeth (Lizzie) Agostino was born and raised in Queens, NY. There is no better city to have grown up in or live in, in her humble opinion. She gave up a corporate career to stay home with her twins when they were born. This was the single best decision she's ever made. She found a creative outlet in baking. It keeps her sane - barely. Find her on Instagram @vandcbaking.

Lizzie's 3 Pieces of Advice for Twin Parents

1. Twin momming isn't easy, find your squad - you'll need them.

2. Try to ignore people who "other mother"- no one knows truly what they're doing.

3. Figure out a schedule that works for you and stick to it.

What She Wants You to Take Away from This Episode

1. Working on yourself is the only way to break any toxic cycle.

2. Put your and your kids' mental health first, always.

3. Have confidence in yourself, don't look for validation from anyone.
