In this heart-opening episode of The Freedom Alchemist Podcast, Paul Greene and Kate Austin dive into the wild, messy, and beautiful world of parenting. 

From backpacking across Asia with a toddler and an 84-year-old, to healing their own childhood wounds, Paul and Kate unpack what it really means to parent from love, not fear.

They explore:

• Why obedience isn't the goal (and what to focus on instead)
• How generational patterns show up in parenting
• Raising kids with self-expression over submission
• The myth of the "perfect vacation" — and why the messy ones matter most
• A powerful story of fear-based obedience vs love-led connection
• iPads at dinner vs. wrestling at the airport — what memories are really made of

Whether you're a parent, grandparent, or just healing the child within, this conversation will shift your perspective and invite you to choose freedom — in parenting, in love, and in life.

If you're navigating parenting or reflecting on your own upbringing, this episode is for you.
