About This Podcast

Parenting content focused on relational, spiritual, and psychological well-being for parents and children. This podcast features a mother/daughter duo. Mom is a licensed mental health provider and parent-child relationship expert, hosted by her own daughter who's a young woman finding her way in the world with a passion for the next generation. Authentic, hilarious, heart-felt, and informative. We hope every parent who listens is reminded of how important they are in their child's life, and how important they are to God.
