You Are the Boss of Your Body-Teaching our Children about Body Boundaries & Respect
One of the most important things we can teach our children is that they are in charge of their bodies. Children should learn early on what body boundaries are and how to have respect for their body and someone else's.
In this episode, we unpack how many well-intentioned parents may interact with their children in ways that end up teaching our children the exact opposite.
We will explore and reframe how we handle the way we interact with our children to ensure that it is done respectfully to develop their understanding and voice in a healthy manner.

Our Relationship with Nature: why we need nature for our physical, mental and emotional health
Our society is struggling from what Richard Louv has coined, a Nature-Deficit Disorder. Using his book, Last Child in the Woods, we explore how our society is moving more indoors and less outdoors and how this is causing a decline in our physical, mental and emotional health.
Thankfully, there are so many ways we can create a family culture that prioritizes nature.
In this episode, we explore how a disconnect with nature causes physical, emotional and mental decline, what might be stopping us from being in nature more and how we can reconnect with nature.
