Hi, we’re Elena and Janos — parents of a two‑year‑old toddler with big ambitions and intense hobbies. We’re navigating everyday life while trying not to lose ourselves (or each other) in translation. We talk about the daily juggle: fitting training, practice, work, and fun into our calendars, while staying present enough to truly enjoy family time. This podcast offers an honest look into family life without a nearby “village,” as we strive to live up to our own expectations of equal parenting.
