Episode 113 

It is so good to have my friend Dave Boden back on the podcast! Dave is a real-life friend, who inspires me greatly. I love his fun and joyful spirit. We laugh together a lot. He is the husband to one of my dearest friends, Leah, and dad to 4 amazing kids. He is also a fantastic writer and author of 4 books. Today we talked about his newest book, releasing in the world today, Raising Gen Alpha: Helping Kids Navigate Everything from Anxiety to AI.  

One of my favorite things about Dave is his passion for teens and especially to see them develop relationship with Christ. So many adults write teens off, maybe now more than ever, but Dave is out on the front lines, reminding us that the next generation is worthy of our hope, our care, and our love. This newest book of his does just that! It reminds us of all Gen Alpha has been through, is going through and how much they need us and even more, how much they need Jesus. This book of Dave’s gives us all the tools we need to understand Gen Alpha and all the encouragement and passion for reaching their hearts. It is not a doom and gloom book. It is deeply practical and deeply hopeful. I came away from my conversation with Dave feeling so excited about serving this generation of kids. I know you will to! Enjoy this convo and then share this episode with a friend! 

And don’t forget you can get more info about my upcoming Women’s Walking Retreat in the Cotswold’s right here. I got to meet Dave in person last time I was in the Cotswolds! We had the most delicious meal in a pub in the charming town of Stowe on the Wold. It’s such a good memory for me! This retreat is perfect for any women who is looking for an opportunity to rest, celebrate, reflect, heal, or simply spend a week chasing beauty, adventure, and friendship. Spots are filling up so make sure you get info and reach out soon if you are interested. 

But if a family trip is what you’re looking for right now, then consider joining me and my family in Italy this Christmas! We’ll be hosting a trip to Rome and surrounding areas the week after Christmas with Select Tours International. The trip will be all planned out for you so you can absolutely rest and focus on time with your family! But we have also built in plenty of time to explore and adventure on your own. It’s the best of both worlds and we can’t wait to spend a week with you learning history, appreciating art, eating the most delicious food and creating lasting connection through adventure! Find out all the details here!
