Have you ever wondered what it takes to get your manuscript published? Or what the process is like for authors? And if you have any questions about editing or book coaching, Josee & I address that in this episode. Hopefully you enjoy! :) 

Lenora Edwards is so mindful & intentional about communication; this chat was not just centered around speech pathology (her specialty) but about all the ways we can communicate, read & encourage our kids to read & speak more mindfully. You'll love this one!

Since we are always discussing SEL and how it impacts our kids, I decided to find an author out on a mission to publish children's books that address the various emotional issues facing our kids today. It was a nice author-author chat, but also mom-mom in many parts of the conversation; hope you enjoy it!

Summer has come & gone by quickly! But don't feel discouraged if your kiddo lost or didn't retain some of the intelligence and skills from last school year; there's still a lot you can do at home to get them on-level & in a good place for a new year of learning!

Everything you've been wondering about the basics involved in teaching your kids to read, is included in this episode. It also made for a great conversation since Karla & I both are former educators. We loved discussing how we stepped outside the box many times to help our students, & how that led to Karla's journey in her masters of educational curriculum development.
