Welcome back!
There is just too much to say about the “green” new urban lifestyle on a website so I’m really glad to announce the launch of our audio companion…the New Urban Mom Podcast!
Today will be the introduction of our first full 30-minute show. Program highlights include:
- What exactly is New Urbanism anyhow?
- Eco-friendly grocery shopping tips for moms
- An Interview with one of the busiest moms on the Mom Talk Network – Aurelia Williams! Aurelia is going to share some insight into her “Schools Out” summer resource package for parents of TEENS. Click on the logo up in the top right corner of this page to get more information about this package.
- Some suggestions for creative activities for families, date night, girlfriend night…

LOVED it! Your beginning segment and explanation of new urban living was perfect as well. The points you brought up about shopping locally was of particular interest to me. I look forward to working together on an episode in the new future.

Love your stuff, Sharon. Back tonight to the podcast
Carole unfortunately as you likely know this is a common complaint of new urbanism communities – even where I live.
Sometimes you just can’t win! Obviously some of these developments are not going to have the natural aged feeling of an old community because well they’re not old! Just because a community is created to look like another community doesn’t make it “fake” – it’s called using common sense, best practices and repeating what works
Sharon, common sense you say. What a novel idea lol
Very interesting concept–thank you!
Way to go Mama!
