Parenting Our Future

Parents! We CAN change the world, starting with the way we"re parenting our future. Up to this point in history, children have been seen as less than and parented in a way that uses power over a child. Most of us were parented in this way but there is a shift in thinking about the way we raise our kids. Parents don’t feel good about using shame, blame, criticism, punishments, and even rewards, to get their kids to listen. Parents are wanting a different way because they know from their own

The Sleep-Deprived Teen | POF162

Parenting Our Future ·

2022/08/16

Only 22% of teens get the amount of sleep they need to be rested which is 8-10 hours. You might be thinking it’s because they are on screens too long but that’s not the case. The main reasons why they aren’t getting enough sleep is because their circadian rhythm shifts in the teen years that makes them naturally want to go to sleep later and wake up earlier (it’s not just YOUR teen!!). My guest, Lisa L. Lewis shares how sleep deprivation impacts teens in their ability to attain, retain,

I’ve been miserable on holiday, and felt like the whole time away was a waste of time and money. I’m thrilled to be talking to Dawn Barclay who is a travel writer and has written THE book to help parents like many of

Summer Safety Myths & Traps | POF156

Parenting Our Future ·

2022/07/05

I didn’t realise that in the summer months injuries DOUBLE, but most of them are preventable! Parents have a natural instinct to keep their kids safe so we make sure to follow instructions, read labels and buy toys we assume are safe. BUT it turns out that not every toy sold is safe for kids and some can cause minor to major injury, including death. My guest, Joan Siff, is an expert in keeping our kids safe when they play and with the toys kids love. Joan and I talk about what to watch out

2022/06/21

Unfortunately, this is a topic we can’t stop talking about. The online safety of our children is something that needs to be at the forefront of our parenting. It’s one of the hardest topics to face in parenting because there are so many apps, and new ones all the time. It’s like trying to hit a moving target. The world is so fortunate to have people like my guest Tania Haigh, who is advocating for our children’s safety in the online space. What I love about her message is that she wants

We are ALL a hot mess from time to time! There are days we just can’t even and I’m here to tell you that’s PERFECTLY OK! As parents we often struggle with “what is” and we fight against it, beat ourselves up, and say things should be different. What if instead, we could just accept that we just can’t even today? That today is a no makeup, stained shirt and greasy hair day? What I’m talking about is letting go of feeling we have to be perfect (I’ve talked about this so much). Here’s the

Making Sense of Senseless Violence | POF151

2022/05/31

Gun violence has been heavy on everyone’s mind with the horrific massacre at a supermarket in Buffalo, New York and just ten days later, the shooting of innocent lives at Robb Elementary School in Uvalde, Texas. It makes sense that you have feelings about what’s happened and are grieving the loss of life and innocence whether you know the victims or not. As parents, it hits us especially hard when we see innocent children killed. Sending our kids to school brings up anxiety and fear in us, and our

If you are looking for a great grad gift, you’ll want to consider my guest’s book: “Career Toolkit, Essential Skills for Success That No One Taught You”. Why you ask? Because the way our kids are being taught to prepare for their future is NOT TEACHING THEM THE SKILLS THEY REALLY NEED!

Why does it happen and why does it coincide with adolescence? Dr. Varma has over 10 years of microbiome research experience and has uncovered a bacteriophage (a type of virus that infects bacteria - literally a bacteria eater) that’s found on clear skin but is absent on acne-infected skin.
