Episode 19 - - Understanding the Digital Impact on Love, Friendship, and Relationships - with David Kobler from Your Choicez

Discover how to navigate the complexities of relationships in the digital age by understanding the red and green lights that help inform our decisions. Join us as we chat with David Kobler, director of Your Choicez, about the impact of the internet on love, friendship, and consent, and why it's crucial to discuss these topics with young people. Learn how to empower your children with vital tools for fostering healthy relationships, and why parents should be their child's most trusted source of education.

Together, we'll explore the challenging subject of pornography, its potentially damaging effects on our brains, relationships, and self-image, and how to support your kids if they're caught in the cycle of addiction. We'll share strategies for having non-shaming conversations about this issue using resources like Good Pictures, Bad Pictures, and discuss the importance of early intervention. Plus, discover the vital components of healthy relationships, such as positivity, kindness, and consistency, and how vulnerability can help build trust.
