    • Raising Kick Ass Kids with Dr. Robert Zeitlin

      Welcome to Season 3 of the Lattes and Lenses Podcast. This season my focus is on providing more meat to these episode. Really digging in to the topics that weigh on the hearts of entrepuernal parents.  From self care to the ever elusive work life balance this season will be full of engaging content. 

      This episode, the first in our 3rd season we kick off with one of my favorite people, Dr. Robert Zeitlin. Robert's field of specialty lies in Positive Parenting'. He focuses on helping guide the next generation toward Laughing More and Yelling less. His new book entitled-Laugh More Yell Less the Stuck at Home Edition is a wonderful book and easy to digest. No spoilers but I will say go buy it.

    • My 6 morning routines
      We hear it all the time having a solid morning routine is important. It helps set the mood and direction for the day. Today I share what I do in the morning. Now while it may change a little based on the schedules of my kids and husband I do work hard at keeping some level of consistency with this list. 
      I'd love to hear the things you incorporate into your morning routine if you have one and if not I hope this inspires you to create one because it's not hard at all. Start by adding ONE small thing to your list and see if that works for your life. 
      Good Luck!

    • How I was inspired by a birds nest
      Have you ever given any thought to the HOW's and WHY's of birds nest construction? You're answer is probably  NO! I didn't either until I decided to clean up the leaves in my back yard a few weeks ago.  Because of the enormity of the leaf piles  I looked up at ALL of the trees that were in our back yard and those of the neighbors and spotted 2 birds nest. It got me to thinking about how they were made, what they were made of and why birds build nest. I mean its January and windy and those 2 nests have been there for quite some time. So I Googled this topic and down the rabbit hole I went. Today's episode talks about how to think about what you do and what you want for  your life. I hope this episode serves as food for though and ask you to share it and if you're feeling REALLY motivated leave us a review in whatever platform you're using to listen to this. 
      Love and Lattes,
      Wanda
