#48: More Than Anti-racism || Practice Makes Progress
Anti-racism is one of those things I can’t fit into a perfect box, but just like we talked about in our latest episode, I sincerely believe that the single greatest action that would change the world is being willing to listen to, and have more empathy for, each other’s stories.

Educating Your Kids at Home During Quarantine
Yesterday, Joe and I did a live Q&A about educating your kids at home during the coronavirus quarantine. My husband has a PhD in Education, but we are first and foremost parents. After listening to several exasperated mamas plead for understanding about suddenly facing the call for the “proper credentials” and the emotional bandwidth to coach their children through their schoolwork at home, I asked Joe to come on and offer some support and advice.

First things first, I am NOT the best parent out there 😂. In fact, I am a BIG believer that there is no “best” way. You are simply the best parent for your child because you love and know them best.
