On this episode of the Christian Homeschool Moms Podcast, I had an awesome conversation with children's author and book coach, Charity Rios, from Clarity With Charity. We talked about:

*How she began her career as a writer and children’s author (God showed her how to work on her book while raising and nursing her child)

*Things that she has done in the church and in her professional life that influence her work

*What inspired her to write her children’s book and workbook: My Heart's Garden, and what the story is all about

*How to help our children dispel the lies that the enemy fights them with concerning their identity

*Raising children in today’s society isn’t easy and neither is nurturing their hearts when we are in such a rush through life

*Valuable tips on how to tend the hearts of our children by looking for "heart flags"
