IMO with Michelle Obama and Craig Robinson

“Success” Looks Different for Every Family with Glennon Doyle and Abby Wambach

Wed, 14 May

From Default Workspace • No contributors

Description

Author Glennon Doyle and superstar soccer legend Abby Wambach sit down to give advice about what an IMO listener should prioritize while figuring out where to move her young family. Glennon shares why she moved her family seven times, and, as the “bonus parent,” Abby discusses what she thinks is most important to their kids’ and family’s happiness (hint: It’s not unlimited cake-pops, though she’s tried). Craig and Michelle discuss their own stories of uprooting families for careers—including a very strange move to a big house in Washington, DC. Have a question you want answered?

2126.539 - 2145.972 Craig Robinson

She'd just sucker me. And it's like, I'm going to think about that. You have one of those. And I'm just like this kid. Then I was like, you're just, you're punking me. Yeah. You know, so now it's a semester. Yeah, yeah. You know, and Barack is trying to, he's trying to be the president, but also trying to be a good parent. And he's like, yeah, whatever your mom says.

2146.012 - 2158.006 Craig Robinson

Although he's looking at me like, semester? I was like, I said a semester. Yeah. And I cannot go back on it. No, you can't. You know, so. Wait, wait a minute. Stop. Abby, what's the longest you've been on punishment?

2158.607 - 2167.684 Abby Wambach

In my life? Like when I was a kid? Yes. I mean, I was a pretty bad kid. But the longest one term. I got grounded once.

2168.285 - 2184.874 Glennon Doyle

And it was one night. And how about you? I was grounded for a quarter. We had quarters. I got a couple C's and that was it. But I used to get grounded outside. Because all I want to do is sit inside and read. That sounds familiar. You must go and be with people. You must people.

2184.934 - 2203.641 Craig Robinson

And that was a horrible punishment. You never got to see again. How long have you been grounded? I was never really grounded. Never grounded. But I never, I wasn't a bad kid. I wasn't doing anything. Who never gets grounded? What about you? Who never gets grounded and then assigns a semester?

2203.661 - 2224.249 Abby Wambach

Somebody who is worried. Yes. About the choices her husband is making. That's exactly my point. Is royally messing up her children. I get it. Thank you. Because look, anytime our kids do a very, very minor, minor situation, I'm like, oh, they can't ever leave the house again. She thinks it's because you think it's your fault. Yeah. I'm like, oh, it's because of the fame.

2224.269 - 2230.455 Abby Wambach

That's because you're only grounded for a week or a day or whatever it was. It's because of the world knows us. It's because of money. Whatever it is.

2230.475 - 2232.277 Craig Robinson

You don't want them to be entitled.

2232.557 - 2232.677 Abby Wambach

No.
