It's the 4M Podcast TEENAGE edition! This week, we're dishing about our first jobs... believe us, we had some weird experiences. Miranda shares about the teen employment rate and benefits of teens flipping burgers and slinging lattes. Spoiler alert: it's not just about the paycheck-- there may be some long-lasting advantages of working hard for the money before you graduate. Lastly, Mel teaches us about the dreaded and mysterious teen illness of mononucleosis. What is it, how do you treat it, and why does it always strike at the worst possible moment? Pop in your earbuds, pour yourself some wine, and prepare to laugh and learn again this week on the Motherhood, Mayhem, and Medical Mysteries Podcast!
