October 21, 2020 Parenting Series: Anatomy with Tamara Villanovoa of Regina Educa
Tamara Villanovoa, the founder of Regina Educa, was inspired by her time growing up in Chile to learn to be more communicative than the culture often allows. She uses her creativity to offer caregivers and educators resources to teach young people about their anatomy so that they might see beauty in their bodies and find empowerment in fully understanding themselves. She uses her artist background to create puppets of sexual organs, which she uses, and has found great success, in her education. She’s a true believer in laughing at yourself and learning in a fun, honest way. As she says: the topic of sex is too serious to take too seriously.
The HIP team explains that the best time to talk about sex, love and biology, is any time!

October 14, 2020 Parenting Series: Addiction and Hope with Andrew Jurek
In Part 2 of our discussions on addiction, Andrew Jurek explains his experience, which was partly detailed in his mother Deborah’s book High. Last week, Deborah spoke of her perspective as a parent of a young person struggling with addiction, and Andrew is here to share how he felt in his most challenging moments and lessons learned along the way. He explains what goes through the mind of someone unable to control their addiction and how it can happen to anyone. His advice: nix the “not my child” philosophy. Andrew believes there's not always a way to prevent a young person from going down this path, but opening the lines of communication early within families is the key to helping those struggling know they are not alone. We thank Andrew and Deborah for sharing their stories and especially for continuing to seek to help others facing similar circumstances and fight stigmas.
Karen reflects on addiction she’s seen in her family members' lives and how it doesn’t have to define you.

October 07, 2020 Parenting Series: Addiction and Hope with Author Deborah Edwards
We love and nurture our kids; though as they become teens, there can be a disconnection. It is challenging to know if it is 'normal' teen behavior or something more. Author and executive coach Deborah Edwards found herself in a moment of 'something more'. While her son, Andrew, became addicted to drugs, she had to balance her own health through his recovery and relapse. It is a beautiful story of parental love, self-love and triumph. She shares this journey in her book, High, and in this episode, provides tips for parents to navigate challenging moments with children and addiction. She explains the concept of patient love as well as living experientially and how those two practices helped her find deeper understanding along her journey. Her bravery and awareness help us to understand that one person’s journey, even that of a child, does not have to be your own.
Sean shares how he learned about addiction growing up with his drug-busting Special Agent father.

September 30, 2020 Parenting Series: The Talk with Sexologist Dr. Lanae St. John
Dr. Lanae St. John Loves talking about sex! After living in Germany and experiencing a cultural shift in thinking about sex and sexuality, Lanae made it her life’s work to help others understand themselves in order to talk with their partners and kids about relationships, sex and pleasure, free of shame. She dispels taboo and challenges parents to let go of the minimal or faulty education they received so that they can share an ongoing, healthy dialogue that teaches kids how to know themselves, set boundaries, respect others and expect respect in return. She is the author of Read Me: A Parental Primer for “The Talk.” As a mother of two young women herself, Dr. Lanae understands the importance of getting it “right” the first time, as she has created an environment of openness and body positivity in her own home.
McKenna, Karen and Sean discuss how PF Chang’s is as good a place as any to talk about sex.
