Digital Parenting with Evelyn Kasina

Learn some skills, tools and knowledge on how to support your child(ren)'s online experiences and promote their digital wellbeing.

Nellie truly believes that a family filled with creativity, fun, laughter,  challenge, adventure, problem-solving, hugs, good food, sound discipline  and learning can not only change a person’s life, but can change the  world.

She also knows, as a parent myself, that we have a limited time to get this  accomplished and an arsenal of distractions and obstacles all around  today.

This is why she focuses on the ONE THING, the  one process, that will help every parent set their daughter up to leave  childhood equipped with the confidence, respect and wisdom every young  woman needs today!

... and the best part?  We leave the anxiety and power struggles behind! (yes, it's possible!)

Tara O'Brien is on a mission to help people reclaim their confidence and feel empowered when living with or loving someone with ADHD so that they can live happier, more fulfilled, drama free lives. Tara's mission began at a low point in her own journey with a simple question "Am I part of the problem?" She quickly realised that how she showed up in her home directly impacted how her husband, children, and students in her classroom responded as well as directly affected her own happiness. As she transformed her life from chaos and crises to calm and joyful, she started sharing her process with others in the same situation. Tara realised she has the key to supporting people who love someone who is neurodivergent. She now shares her journey and methodology so that anyone can start on the path to being drama free.

What do you know about OCSEA - Online Child Sexual Exploitation and Abuse? At least  8 out of 10 children who have access to the internet have experienced OCSEA in different ways. It could be from being exposed to sexual material to being asked to share explicit content or watch a live stream. Some children share their content privately only to find their images all over the internet without their consent.

According to a recent report funded by End Violence Against Children and implemented by Ecpat, INTERPOL & UNICEF stated in part that

"Children are subjected to these potential and actual instances of sexual exploitation and abuse both online and offline. In Kenya, most children who have been exposed to any manifestation of OCSEA have also been subjected to physical, sexual or emotional violence in person."

I had a conversation with Caroline Atieno, a counselor at Childline Kenya who painted a picture of our landscape and her experience working with children who have experienced sexual exploitation and abuse.

The hardest thing for any mother is leaving behind her child and moving to a destination that puts distance between them. Thoughts of her baby's welfare, the risk of losing the bond, and coming back to a child who calls her "auntie" linger in her mind. Even with that, Brenda Oloo chose to trudge the road less taken 

We have seen parents taking up work or educational opportunities abroad and they would have to leave their families behind, we have others thinking about it and wondering - HOW they can make it work as well. 

Well, I would like you to be inspired by, Brenda Oloo, a woman of many worlds. She is an aviator who's been in the industry for over 15 years, a businesswoman, and an artist. 

Away from the career space, she is a daughter, sister, wife and mother to a seven-year-old son called Milan. She dared abroad and has been an expatriate in the Middle East for nearly five years.

               "When I turned 40, I began looking at life differently." Philip Ogola

A digital humanitarian, husband and father to two boys, he has purposed to break generational cycles by being different. Philip talks to me about culture, presence, energy and he opens up about being abused by their nanny when he was young. 

As a story teller, he shares how he got to bond and know his father while he was on his death bed.. he challenges parents to be present with their presence and not presents. 

               "If you can drink with your boys till morning and cannot sit with your children to bond and know who they are - you are investing in the    wrong relationship."

He calls himself a husband and a dad before any other titles, meet James Martin Okumu. A senior pastor at Destiny Chapel, a Radio & TV producer and presenter at  Family Radio 316.

James is an intentional parent, focused on men's ministry with a purpose to see them "man up". This conversation is insightful, funny, impactful and provoking.. 

We delve into choice, in parenting, ministry, service and growth. 

Let us walk down memory lane, do you remember your first period or wet dream?Do you remember the experience of transition from being a pre-teenager to a teenager?  For some of us, it was scary, confusing, embarrassing even painful.

It is my pleasure to introduce you to Esther Mbugua - Kimemia, a wife and mother of 3 who's journey was painful but birthed an amazing program for pre-teen girls called Furaha and pre-teen boys called Kito. 

The program seeks to help pre-teenagers understand what is happening in their bodies during the transition to teenage hood, how to take care of not only themselves but others. 

This is an impact filled conversation, together with Esther I chose to empower my community of digital champions.
