  • Parents: Are you equipping your child(ren) for success?
    Being a parent is by far one of the hardest jobs to do because their is no real correct way to do so. It's all subjective. As kids we always think our parents are wrong, controlling, overbearing, or that they simply just don't understand us, but we don't realize until we're grown that is not always the case. But parents ask yourself, are you really equipping your child or children with the necessary tools to be successful?? When we mean success it's not just preparing them for the workforce, but financially, physically, mentally, and emotionally preparing them on their journey through this swallow you up and spit you out world. In this episode, Damon and Caroline Witherspoon sit down with us to discuss navigating the world of parenthood (being young parents), the trials and errors they accrued over the years, and some of their best practices. We hope you enjoy the episode!
