This is Normal(ish) is joined by Kendall Concini-Moore -- a mental health advocate, mom of two, and a children's book author. Kendall, Katiah and Timitri talk about depression in parenting: how we adapt ourselves, work on our mental health, and learn to also name it for our children. Kendall's book "Mom's Cloud and the Beach Adventure" helps bridge the gap between adults and children to open up discussions about mental health, give it a physical representation, and allow children to understand the importance of talking about these things openly.

We discuss parenting challenges and dynamics in family that will hopefully allow our children to grow up without so many emotional barriers and instead have support and guidance to work through these things at an early age.

You can find Kendall in Instagram and Threads @CloudyDayChronicles or visit her website for more information or connection!
