Are you parenting the way you really want to?

My husband, Dan Martell, is back on the podcast today as a guest. In this episode, we're going back to the early days of parenthood and sharing what it was like having two babies in one year. From dealing with postpartum depression to conflicting expectations, it wasn't always an easy journey. Now, reflecting onto those days feels more like looking at great memories and stories to share.

Our approach to parenting isn't for everybody, but we're choosing to raise our kids in a way that makes sense for our family. For us, that means teaching them what's important, world schooling them, and allowing them to achieve what they want—not what we want for them.

In this episode, you will learn about:

• How Dan felt having two young kids so close together in age.
• Dan's favorite age for our kids and what his fondest memories are.
• What I thought the rules of parenting were (and why I might have been wrong).
• Dan's best piece of parenting advice.
• Why it's important to let kids lose, plus the teaching moments that come with it.
• Why we've decided to world school our kids next year and what that looks like.
• Why we want our kids to pursue their own ideas of success.
• Who we look to for parenting advice (and who we don't).
