      • Stop Caregiving Mistakes You Might Be Making | Kylie Cross

        Parent Projects Podcast - Episode #85

        Necessity drives invention and action, especially in family projects that often carry emotional baggage. Frustration can hinder participation, while past trauma influences identity and self-worth. Understanding personal feelings is essential for navigating sensitive conversations with parents.

        In this episode Beyond The Walls Podcast host, Kylie Cross, discusses how approaching discussions with curiosity improves communication, and establishing healthy boundaries aids healing. Kylie also explains how resources like coaching and podcasts are supporting personal growth and overcoming challenges in family caregiving complicated by childhood trauma.

      • #81 | How To Travel As You Get Older | Ryan Smith

         Parent Projects Podcast - Episode #81

        Ryan Smith serves as Director of Communications and Government Relations. His team manages the marketing, social media, and customer experience for Phoenix-Mesa Gateway Airport. They also manage a volunteer program that consists of 20 volunteers and a few therapy dogs. These volunteers are the frontline workers that help passengers as they arrive at the airport. Their therapy dog program is designed to help those passengers that may experience anxiety with flying or being in large crowds with lots of noise. Gateway Airport is unique in that they are a much smaller and more convenient airport than your regular large hub airport. Providing this Just Plane Easy experience is important for us as many of their passengers are flying for the first time. They also love giving tours of the airport to groups looking to learn about aviation, and school groups teaching about the various careers that are available at and around the airport.
