After Stewart—dad to son Nathan, 22, and daughter Maggie, 20, with wife Tracey McShane—asked Michelle if she missed the “job” of parenting, she bluntly responded, “No.”
“It gave meaning and pattern to my life,” Stewart added, to which Michelle candidly replied, “I’m good.”
“Looking at all this meaning,” she continued, appearing to gesture to her and her brother’s podcast studio. “I have a wonderful pattern.”
While Stewart and Robinson agreed that they enjoy their kids’ schedules, Michelle quipped, “I love my schedule.”
“I have a great schedule,” she added, “and it’s all mine.”
But the Becoming author pointed out that there’s a reason why dads may feel differently than moms about kids leaving the nest.
“I think fathers can be that way because you weren’t there from 6:00 to 9:00 at night, you missed a lot of it,” she shared. “I mean, I’ve had so much quality time with my children, so much. I know them inside and out.”
