Seiji, director of High Noon Highschool, joins School of Love, diving into meaningful questions like:

Why don't teens want to talk?

Why do they avoid the topic of sex?

How do they feel seen and heard?

Join us in this conversation of what teens are going through so we can discover how we can bond and thrive in our parental role.

In this episode, I share about my recent experience of childbirth—my sixth birth and fifth child.

This time, I approached it with a clear intention: to make the birthing experience my own creation. I'll share which parts of that vision came to life, what I had to let go of, and the lessons that unfolded along the way.

I also touch upon why it's so important to bring childbirth out of the shadows and into the light of family conversations—where it belongs.

In this heartfelt conversation, Yun-A and I explore what it means to pass on our faith to our little legacies — our children. We share practical tips for nurturing faith in daily life — from cultivating emotional resilience to practicing unconditional love in parenting. Along the way, we touch on the powerful role of Nature in spiritual growth and reflect on the essence of faith and connection with God.

Tune in, be inspired, and take a moment to ask yourself: What's the most important thing in my faith I want to pass on? And the School of Love question for us all: How can I have great conversations with my child about God's creation of sex?

What could be the linchpin of adolescence, transitioning into a healthy, whole, loving adult? A linchpin is a small but essential part that holds things together. In this episode, Andrew talks about rites of passage, and I see how this could be a linchpin every child needs when growing up and facing puberty. Creating a support system, cementing a security of being present for our kids. We all need connection, especially in this age where true connection is drowning deeper and deeper under in the superficial disguise of phones and social media. In the past, tribes found ways to create rites of passage to show a child a special time of growth and responsibility, welcoming them into the elder circle. How can we mark this time, create connection, and why is that so important?

We all need connection, but often don't feel connected enough or at all. What is the glass between us that makes that connection even more out of reach? Jason Frost shares all about the many ways social media, pornography and general time usage behind a screen -especially amongst youth- has detrimental effects to our kids' childhood and for us all. Founder of Wired Human and author of the book, The Glass Between Us along with his wife, Lisa Frost, Jason shares the wake up call for us to be aware of what is taking the essence out of our kids' lives, and what we as parents can do about it!

How do you feel about sex, and where did that influence come from?

William Haines, a teacher, lecturer, pastor and much more, explains the religious history around sexuality. We dive into who influenced the Christian perspective of sex, as well as different perspectives held by Judaism.

We also examine the story of the Fall of Man, and how that may be influencing us still today.

The important take away - let's start choosing God's perspective of sex, and let that be the inheritance for our children.

What's God's fashion advice? How can we mix our creativity in how we dress along with respect for our bodies? How do we have conversations at home about dressing in a way that truly values ourselves?

Kristen Miele, a Christian sex educator with over 15 years of experience, shares her knowledge on biblical insight as well as her own experience.

We hope this episode helps you to find ways to have great conversations about this topic at home!

Sandra Lowen shares heartfelt insights on parenting in today's increasingly unsafe and hypersexualized world. We explore how to truly support our children through complex challenges like low self-esteem, exposure to pornography, and questions around masturbation—topics often difficult to address, especially within a faith-based context.

Sandra speaks about the disappointments and struggles many parents face, offering both compassion and practical guidance. She emphasizes the importance of physical affection, understanding, and forgiveness—not just during childhood, but as a lifelong foundation that carries into the teen years and beyond!

Whether you're a parent seeking guidance, comfort, or tools for deeper connection, this episode offers wisdom, encouragement, and real-world strategies rooted in love and faith.

In this episode we take a look at what's normal and how it can become a dangerous trap to slip into. Human beings have a natural instinct to fit in, and if we aren't mindful about the influence of our environment, we can end up fitting into something that isn't even good for us. This affects parents and children alike. Here we take a look at the culture in this world, specifically around sex, and how that may be influencing us as parents as well as our children. There are a lot of norms to break. So let's exemplify a true culture for our kids, support them in the challenges in standing up for their true selves, and let's build a community and culture that lifts each other up to an enriching standard, rather than a destructive one.

Don't miss this episode, an interview with the brilliant duo, Mary Flo and Megan, two lovely ladies who partnered to create Birds & Bees, which revolutionizes "The Talk" about sex into something so much easier - approachable, everyday conversations that build up over time.

Here we talk about finding our voice in this important topic, and making that awkward leap into the conversation a much more natural and simpler step.

I loved getting to know these ladies and truly support their message! If you're interested in doing their course for parents on talking to your kids about sex, visit https://birds-bees.com/ and get 20% off with the code I share at the end of the episode. ;)
