253: Raising Capable Kids with Katie Kimball


Listen Later

I'm super excited to have Katie Kimball with us again. You might know Katie as the genius behind the Kids Cook Real Food e-course, which even the Wall Street Journal called the best online cooking class for kids out there. We’re diving into something all parents think about: how to raise kids who are ready to take on the world.

Katie, a former teacher and mom of four, is here to chat about why it’s crucial (and totally doable) to teach your kids practical life skills. We’re talking about everything from cooking to cleaning, and why these aren’t just chores, but opportunities to build confidence and reduce anxiety in your kids.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • Why letting kids help around the house is a good thing (and not something to feel guilty about).
  • The big wins your family can score when your kids learn to handle tasks on their own.
  • Tips on how to get past the common hurdles parents face, like guilt and a crazy schedule.
  • Heartwarming stories from Katie’s own life that show the magic of teaching kids to be more independent.

Katie's got some fantastic stories to share about her own journey and the surprising ways these skills have brought her family closer. Whether you’re dealing with mom guilt or just trying to figure out where to start, this episode is packed with insights and laughter to guide you.

Ready to dive even deeper into building life skills with your kids? Join us for the #LifeSkillsNow Summer Camp! It’s the perfect place for your kids to learn, grow, and have fun, all while gaining those crucial skills they’ll use for life. Whether it’s cooking, managing chores, or handling their first debit card, we’ve got it covered. Don’t miss out on the fun and learning—spots are filling fast! Sign up today and let’s make this summer one to remember!
