"If you want to change the world, go home and love your family." - Mother Theresa

Mercedes Samudio, LCSW is a parent coach, speaker, bestselling author, and founder of the Diversity in Parenting Conference who helps parents and children communicate with each other, manage emotional trauma, navigate social media and technology together, and develop healthy parent-child relationships. Mercedes started the #EndParentShaming movement as well as coined the term Shame-Proof Parenting – using both to bring awareness to ending parent shame.

In this episode, Mercedes and I talk about:

• How to raise emotionally sound children

• How to cultivate a healthy parenting identity
• Showing more diversity and inclusion in parenting identities
