We want to close out the year with some truth-telling from a very funny mom, author, and comedian, Jessi Klein. This week, she joins Dr. Becky to talk about how this s**t is hard. Jessi's book I'll Show Myself Out: Essays on Midlife and Motherhood is a bedside table must for a brand new parent and a not-so-new-to-this parent. Listen in and fill in this sentence for yourself, "I am a good parent who _______."
