Long walks and podcasts go hand-in-hand. Which is why we have compiled a list of six top parenting podcasts (with a collective 813 episodes and counting) so you can work through your top parenting dilemmas while you get in your steps.
As a parent, one of the most heartbreaking things to hear your child say is “no one likes me.”
You work hard in their formative years to teach your children to socialize, be kind and share so they can make friends during school and create the important relationships that will last into their future.
We all know that volunteering can be good for the soul, but our busy lifestyles can make it easy to say, “I just don’t have the time.”
Between work, school, extracurricular activities, cleaning the house, keeping the kids fed and trying to carve out some quality family time, volunteering can fall to the bottom of the priority list. One solution can be combining your family time with volunteering at a local organization. Donating your time to others in need teaches children a plethora of important skills and life lessons.
