Wife of the Party Podcast # 249 - Ila Kreischer 

LeeAnn’s way of speaking to her daughters is so affirming and healing. It seems like she’s great at helping Ila feel seen. It’s beautiful to watch. ❤️

I love that Ila also uses the term “secret time” like Bert 💀

I can’t imagine a mother speaking to her child that way! It makes you appreciate the good people/family in your life. Granted overcoming that situation allows LeAnn to become an even better mom

Aghhh hearing a mom acknowledging her daughter’s feelings and willing to change her behavior accordingly was emotional for me

Its always so touching to see Leanne talk to her daughters and this episode with Ila wasn't the exception.

Awwww. Ila's been blossoming these past few years, and looking back at the time stamps through out the different times your daughters have appeared on the podcast, you've raised them into wonderful young adults. I hope you've been the proudest mama for how you have raised them. 👏👏👏

Bert lucked out with LeeAnn. What a great family. Love the Kreischers.

Ila saying hemorrhoid in the brain just made my night complete

Listen to Ila saying “Can Halston cut it out?”. She’s becoming a proper podcaster. I’d watch The Ila Show podcast in a heartbeat. We need Ila to guest host on 2bears one day, it would be absolute chaos in the best way 🤣🤣

"I'm missiful person." - Ila Kreisher I love her! The way LeeAnn reassured Ila about her brain was so damn sweet. This family is awesome.

EXCELLENT episode Leanne. To hear and see how Ila has grown is testament to what a wonderful, understanding and supportive mother you are. I was tearing up when you shared a bit of your mothers story with her, and cried right along with you when you spoke of Jan. 💕

Cool episode. I know LeeAnn has done a lot of therapy and it shows in her conversations. It's really nice to see a person be able to have good, healthy, mature interactions. Great example to the rest of us.

Awww I love being able to hang with such a wonderful mom. 💕 lovely girls you raised. Good job mommy

Your episodes with your kids and/or Bert are my favorite!

LeeAnn you have no idea how validating that story was to hear. My grandmother was and still is a very hurt person and struggles with mental health issues and addiction. She lashed out on all of us countless times even her young grandchildren. I keep her at a safe distance these days, but I do remember her wonderfully magic side as well and cherish those memories. Thank you for sharing about your, mom and for protecting your kids from the hurt they may have gotten.❤

Ila’s blossomed into a really great well rounded young woman, you and Bert have raised a couple of great kids.

My boys (15 & 17) were not taught about the female anatomy in sex Ed. I made sure that they knew both. I didn’t want them “grossed out” by periods or anything else (like some of the guys I went to school with). Luckily, they are not and just see it as part of life, nothing to be ashamed of

I have the exact non-relationship with my mother, Leeann- I really appreciate that you are talking about it, because it makes me feel like I'm not alone, and you aren't either

Love Ila !! Love to see her and her dad on the same podcast, too! ❤️

You and your daughters are some of my favorite podcast episodes ever! ❤❤

Please post more with your kids 20yo and really no parents gotta good job n everything but I learn a lot from these n how you give soft direction in life n it’s really beneficial to me

It’s sweet that ila has her own pet to be responsible for and smart to be teaching her about being mindful of her space

With the jiu-jitsu conversation it seemed like Ila's main feeling/need was safety. Sadly I think a lot of women need something like that to feel safe. Thanks for sharing so much!

an ad for Chewy popped up right in the middle of your squirrel story. way to go youtube.

Beautiful conversation ladies.

. Best podcast ever. THX GIRLS!!!

Awww i love you mom

Now I want to see mother and daughter ju-jitsu fight 😂

Thank you for this candid conversation. It's tough hearing about these close bonds and healthy relationships that people have with their parents. Both of my grandmothers have their fair share of issues, especially my mom's mom who is very paranoid and untrusting. I understand that she's probably just trying to protect herself after years of trauma, but she can be so disingenuous sometimes because she puts up this wall around herself. She often lies to different people to test them, and thinks that her daughters are just waiting for her to die to inherit her home. It's exhausting.

The way you talked about your mom with Ila is a thing I want to have with somebody.

Ila was my grandmas name I just love it but never heard anyone else with that name. U guys are great.

another great episode.. ila is really lucky to have you as her mother, cant imagine what that little tazmanian would be without you guiding her 😂😂 ❤

Ila rules.

I love LeeAnn! I love her for the wife she is to Bert and the mother she is to her children. That's a real woman. Listen to Bert talk about her!

It almost makes me think that there is a reason that you got so emotional in that moment. I hope that when you called Jan, that everything with her was Ok. That was my first thought...and hopefully I am wrong!

That’s what dogs do. My Boston terrier killed several squirrels in her life time.

Damn the conversation got real.

brilliant

We have a daughter two called Isla…I always wondered about the spelling without the s?? P.s. saw Bert this evening in Berlin he was great 🤩🤩🥳🥳😆😆 I think he got the feeling the audience was full of Germans but it was packed with Americans and lots of others. I was holding up the Scottish side down on row 2 with my husband :)

One hour and twenty three minutes in they struck gold. Boys are given a proper sexual education. In fact when I was in fifth grade, they separated the boys and girls and had separate talks. I wonder if the problem we have with men and their obsession with the female body is directly related... Maybe it's not just a sick obsession, but a healthy curiosity shamed as taboo .

Bro I had to read 100s of pages of phych in a single day throughout university. Those psych textbooks were gnarly. And I loved psych, but it was way too much reading.

Such a neato family

leeann is like... the best mom. can she adopt me?

When I grow up I wanna be leanne.

Love me some LeeAnn:)

I'll is an awesome guest cause we need to hear the younger perspective cause we don't know what they are going through and very informative 😂

The funny thing is is that this time of year those squirrels weren’t fighting they were breeding lol imagine getting chased down by a man on a branch trying to knock you up and all of a sudden one of his death by dog

LeeAnn naggin about cleaning (low priority, non essential life skill) and Ila then saying; can't wait till I move out....i can relate being Ila's age; get out when you can Ila and get to move at your own pace

Bert's family is great he must be a better dad than he let's on lol

Sounds like the mother is lashing out at the child in the midst of emotional meltdowns? Rejecting your child only hurts you. LeeAnn's mother doesn't sound emotionally stable. She clearly suffers from mental health issues. Fueling herself on anger & bitterness. Once again, lashing out/hurting your child only hurts you. There may also be issues of betrayal felt by the mother, especially if she felt rejected by the young LeeAnn. That rejection will have deeply stung. LeeAnn rejected her mother & her mother has spent the rest of her life rejecting LeeAnn? How do both parties heal & forgive simultaneously so that things can move forward? I don't know the answer to that. But it's not a good situation. There is no resolution to it. With or without hurts. It's very sad. Because I don't believe LeeAnn's mother doesn't love her. Unless she is seriously psychologically damaged. LeeAnn must still love her mother. The situation must weigh on her. It clearly does. It must weigh on her that her own children have missed out on a relationship with their grandmother. I bet LeeAnn has feelings of guilt about that. It must be tough. But when there's so much betrayal & hurt & words thrown that slash the soul how do you heal that? Can you heal it? I dunno. But with old age LeeAnn's mother may change. Perhaps?

9:00 lol

❤❤

Ila seems like those people that are super smart but just can't get their point across

How does one not drink water ? No judgement it just seems impossible

Marcella was poisoned btw...

I saw a clip of these 2 talking about the matrix. I understand why the kid was confused, but the mother lacks seriousness and credibility in adressing the issue. Next time use google when you have no idea what you are talking about. I agree with the kid, the moms response was horrible, not credible at all. 30 seconds, thats all it woulda took for the mom to be slightly informed. Instead she just flat out lied to the kid, pretended she knew something that she clearly does not. For the record, many of the brightest scientific minds on the planet are open to the idea of simulation theory including the worlds richest man. Seriously, you should look into just how many tremendously intelligent and reputable people have publicly admitted they are open to this concept. Basically, with artificial intelligence improving so quickly right infront of our eyes, its not very difficult to imagine our world eventually being dominated by computers. When the computers take over, whats to stop them from creating a fake world that tricks our small brains into believing something like an advanced form of social media is actually reality? Stupid people use the phrase conspiracy theory when they are uninformed, thats why she used the phrase, she was being stupid. Its actually worse than stupid considering every detective and private investigator in the world is working on conspiracy theories all day long. Personally, when dumb people hide behind the phrase conspiract theory it retards the progress of all around them that have unwisely taken them seriously. Russian collusion in 2016 was the definition of a conspiracy theory, but since the communist americans were the ones selling it nobody labeled it with the bad words. Do you understand what I am saying? Go visit a prison, half the people you will see are there because they were found guilty of some sort of conspiracy. Its very bad to label things conspiracy theories simply because you refuse to do a 30 second google search.

yeah yall most def need to get the dog checked anyway

Ila-Cute, not that bright.

The reason Ila doesn’t take her stuff up the stairs isn’t bc you don’t parent well it’s bc she’s got an attention disorder like ADHD she could tell her self for two hours to bring it up and still forget. It’s an inattentive thing

imagine becoming famous before you've done anythin in life. oh I forgot the kardashions model

So traumatizing seeing your dog kill a small animal 😢.

You should never complain to your minor children. Vent to your friends, lover, therapist, pastor, parents. Equals or authorities, but never children
