*Trigger warning: This episode discusses sensitive topics, including child safety, screen time, sleepovers, and conversations about sex and boundaries.*

Oh hey, y’all - this one is a must-listen. 

I know I say that a lot, but seriously, my conversation with Amie Anger is packed with the kind of parenting wisdom that’ll make you rethink a few things. 

We’re talking about sleepovers (should you even allow them?), screen time, how to have the talk with your kids, and so much more. 

Amie is a mother of six - yes, six - and she’s got the experience and expertise to back up every piece of advice. 

Fair warning: some of these topics might challenge the way you’ve been thinking about parenting, but that’s exactly why this episode is so important. 

Let’s get into it.
