Emily and Gigja are first-time mothers to Frida and Thor, born ten days apart in 2019. As Emily navigates first-time motherhood and is attracted to a less traditional approach to raising Frida, she will always go to Gigja with questions due to her extensive educational background. Despite a master&#39;s in Child Development, formal training, and working for many years with children Gigja finds raising Thor provides continued learning experience. The Frida and Thor podcast shares these conversations, questions, and surprises on a weekly basis so others may relate or learn along with them.
