In this week’s episode, I wanted to share my thoughts on “Modern Parenting”. I take a deep dive into why today's gentle approach may miss the mark, and hear raw, real-life insights on discipline, failure, and family dynamics. Join me for a no-holds-barred discussion that's as much about raising strong children as it is about building character in the digital age! Key Points

• Kids need discipline and boundaries

• Failure teaches and strengthens

• Too much protection can handicap your child’s future

• Strong kids need various role models

• Technology should not replace real connection
