Welcome to the Parents With Questions podcast. This is the show where we explore how to help parents, kids and families thrive in the midst of great change and global uncertainty. My name is Adam Gibson. As a parent, I’ve got a lot of questions right now about how we raise healthy, happy, incoercible, super conscious kids, given the world is completely different to how we thought it was even three years ago.
This is a podcast to educate, inspire and empower all of us as parents to join us as we ask the big questions, talk to leading experts, and empower ourselves along the way to do the best job we possibly can for the people we love the most. You’re here on purpose, as a parent. You’re raising dragon slayers in a time when there are actual dragons.
We’re not here to tell you what to do, but we’ll offer pathways forward. Welcome to the Parents With Questions podcast.
