In this episode, Val is chatting it up with Amanda Rueter of Dirt & Boogers.

Amanda was a Mental Health Counselor who worked with children and mothers in both individual and group counseling environments before she became a Stay at Home Mom to two boys.  She has a Bachelors Degree in Child Development and Family Studies and a Masters in Counseling where she specialized in Play Therapy.

She left her job in 2010 when she had her oldest son.  Her husband is in the military and they have moved 3 times since her oldest was born. Maintaining a license while moving so often is difficult, so she decided to share her love of children and families on the internet instead.


Highlights:

- Learn how to stop yelling
- Find out the one thing all parents should know
- Have YOUR parenting questions answered!
