In an increasingly complicated world, caregivers have to equip their children with the tools to advocate for themselves, their needs, and their safety. Assertiveness is not innate to children. It is a muscle that has to be exercised. A child’s ability to use their voice will translate to success in the classroom, in social circles, in extracurricular activities, and will foster confidence and competence.
In today’s episode, we discuss why developing your child’s voice is so important, and how this will benefit every aspect of your child’s life. I will provide you with the actions you as a caregiver can take to strike the right balance between a well-mannered child and an assertive, self-advocating child.
Give your child the gift of their own voice, just in time for back to school!

In today’s world, there is no escaping the barrage of likes, comments, and follow requests. Our children are growing up in a world where social media is becoming increasingly accessible to younger audiences by the day. Instead of fighting the online world, we have to prepare our children to become responsible digital citizens. From privacy, to safety, to screen time, it seems like there are countless topics we must help our children navigate.
However, fear not! Social media is not without its benefits! Engaging online can allow your children a creative outlet, and ample opportunities for social connection and interaction.
Being a double-edged sword, it is vital that parents and caregivers give social media the proper educational attention to ensure that our children are reaping the benefits, while minimizing the possible drawbacks.
In this episode of the Summer Series, I am going to walk you through tangible ways to monitor and tailor your child’s time online to ensure the security of their mental health, and their safety.

This week we are in part 2 of the 2023 Black History Month Series!
On this week's episode of the podcast, I talk about the importance of representation.
There is a plethora of research that suggests that it is extremely important for children to be exposed to positive images of people who looked like them! Representation is when children and adolescents see people who look and/or have similar experiences to them in books, media, politics, movies, and the many other things they consume on a daily basis.
Join me in this episode so we can have a conversation about how you can make sure there is representation in your child's life.
