There’s a lot of confusion on the difference between these two things. Many people are opting for toxic positivity or false positivity and it’s not helpful. Like at all.

117. Optimism vs. Toxic Positivity

A podcast for conscious parents who drop the f-bomb. A lot. We are the overthinkers, the dreamers, and the doers. We are parenting in a radically different way than those before us. But our divine vision gets blurry cause...OMG...kids can be such a pain in the ass. Let's work from the inside out, in a whole brain, whole body way to mitigate the crappy behavior. Not just with our kids but with ourselves. So you can be the parent you envision.

Today I’m talking with Ilene Steinberg who founded and is the CEO of the Center for Lice Control. Ilene’s going to run us through some huge misconceptions about lice, what you can do to truly stave off an infestation, and the actual REALLY good reason that lice are so contagious.

154. Every Thing You Should Know About Lice (Even Though You Probably Don’t Want to)

Today, we’ll start with a few more autumnal things, especially cozy food like braising.

We’ll also talk about what little things we can do to plug up our own energy drains. One way to do that is brutal self care. In these early childhood days…you are in the thick of it. Self care isn’t necessarily pretty at this stage but more about making your life evenly paced and easier.

151. Finding Your Energy Drains and Brutal Self Care

Today, we’ll start with a small download about my epic Spartan Race that I did with Pascal. Then we’ll move into keeping your child well this fall…which directly leads into the sports question. Sports for kids under the age of six gets tricky and it’s important to know your “why”. Being intentional about it can really help.
