Breanna Churchill, a dynamo in the world of children's education and literature, joins us for an enlightening conversation that’s as engaging as a bedtime story filled with giggles and wonder. As a full-time home educator and the founder of the Brown Bear Book Club, Brianna opens up about her journey through the whimsical world of children's books—a journey that began with her toddler's fascination with transportation.

Throughout our chat, we get a peek into Breanna's philosophy on literacy and child development, sprinkled with humor and relatable anecdotes. She emphasizes the importance of creating a literacy-rich environment at home—think books in every nook and cranny, including the car! We also discuss the powerful role of storytelling in teaching children about kindness, empathy, and the importance of making choices in their reading adventures. Breanna’s insights are not just for parents but for anyone involved in nurturing young minds. Her tips on how to choose books that resonate with kids are pure gold, and her enthusiasm for making reading fun is downright contagious!

Prepare to be inspired as we explore Breanna's upcoming projects, including a delightful new book featuring a young cheetah that navigates life lessons in the savannah.

Dr. Ali Lankarani, affectionately known as Dr. L, takes us on a rollercoaster ride through the world of child development, education, and family dynamics in this lively episode. We kick things off with Dr. L sharing his journey from a neurodiverse childhood to becoming a clinical neuroscientist. He dives into the challenges families face when navigating educational systems that often feel like a one-size-fits-all solution—spoiler alert: it doesn't fit everyone! Dr. L passionately discusses the importance of recognizing that not all children thrive under traditional expectations. Instead, he advocates for a more individualized approach to education that acknowledges each child's unique needs and talents. We chat about the “mini-me” syndrome parents often have, where they project their aspirations onto their kids, and how that can lead to disillusionment when those little darlings turn out to be their own individuals with their own dreams. By the end of our chit-chat, we’re equipped with tools to help us nurture individuality in our children, ensuring they can grow up to be happy, healthy, and hopeful adults who know how to harness their passions and strengths. Spoiler alert: it’s all about allowing kids to explore and discover themselves without the pressure of fitting into a predetermined mold!

Dr. Ali Lankerani, affectionately known as Dr. L The Parent Whisperer is a clinical neuroscientist, a Family Advocate, and a consultant to the United Nations.

Dr. George Maurer joins us today, bringing more than three decades of journalism experience and a fascinating background as a retired Air Force master sergeant. He shares stories from the frontlines of the Pentagon Press Briefing Room, where he rubbed elbows with high-profile personalities like Sammy Hagar and Pat Benatar, and covered monumental events such as Super Bowl XLII. But it’s not all about star interviews and glitzy events; we dive deep into a pressing issue that’s infiltrating the American education system: Critical Race Theory (CRT). Dr. Maurer passionately argues that CRT has been surreptitiously woven into educational curricula, often without parents’ awareness. He sheds light on how educators deny its presence while supporting its ideologies behind closed doors. There’s a sense of urgency in his voice as he recounts how CRT can create unnecessary divisions among children, leading to confusion and hostility that they aren’t equipped to handle. We explore how parents can take action and engage with their children’s education, from scrutinizing school materials to attending school board meetings. This episode is a call to arms for parents to reclaim their role in their kids’ education and to ensure that schools are places of unity rather than division.

Dr. Maurer is an award-winning broadcast journalist with more than 35 years of experience. He’s a retired Air Force Master Sergeant who deployed to Iraq during the Global War on Terrorism. He also served overseas in Japan, Korea, and the Portuguese Azores. For his final assignment, he served in the Pentagon Press Briefing Room alongside all major news organizations. He’s interviewed high profile guests such as Sammy Hagar, Pat Benatar, Dan Ackroyd, Gene Simmons, Paul Stanley, and many more. He’s covered major events such as Super Bowl XLII and two Major League Baseball All-Star games. He also interviewed top Defense officials such as Secretary of Defense Robert Gates and Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Michael Mullen.

Imagine being a parent and suddenly realizing that the virtual playground your kids are playing in might not be as safe as you thought. Tom Arnold shares a riveting tale of how a seemingly innocent game turned into a near disaster for his grandson. This heart-pounding moment ignited Tom's mission to educate families about the hidden dangers lurking online. With his extensive background in cybersecurity, Tom breaks down the concept of 'cyber hygiene'—a fancy way of saying, 'Keep your digital life clean and safe!' He walks us through practical tips for parents, like recognizing behavioral changes in kids that might signal something's amiss. Plus, we dive into the nitty-gritty of online interactions, stressing that not everyone in the digital world has good intentions. Tune in as we learn how to empower our kids to navigate the internet wisely, ensuring they know when to run like the wind from potential threats. With Tom's engaging storytelling and passionate advocacy, you'll leave feeling more equipped to tackle the challenges of modern parenting in a digital age.

Tom Arnold (CISSP, ISSMP, CISA, CFS, GCFE-Gold, GNFA, GWEB, GBFA) is a cybersecurity expert, digital forensics investigator, and educator. He lectures on digital forensics and incident response at San Jose State University and the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, where he is also helping to develop a new digital evidence and forensics degree program. A co-founder of Payment Software Company (PSC), now part of NCC Group, Arnold has led large-scale breach investigations—some involving more than 7,000 servers—and served as lead investigator in complex threat-hunting operations. He has testified before the U.S. Senate and House on cybersecurity legislation and sits on the steering committee for the Las Vegas branch of the USSS/Cyber Fraud Task Force. He also serves as Operations Manager at Cloud 10 Studios, a full-service animation studio that creates original series, long-form content, and commercial projects.

His novel The Digital Detective: First Intervention was inspired by a real-life cybersecurity scare when Arnold’s grandson was approached by a stranger on Roblox despite parental controls. That moment launched Arnold’s mission to help families and schools recognize hidden online dangers—and to give kids the tools they need to stay safe in the digital world.
