We discuss what an empath is, and how draining it can be. Energetic protection and boundaries are so important to exist in this energy intense world. Join us as we talk about how our society is programmed to take from us energetically without permission.

Parenting is hard even on the best of days. Shedding your programming from the way parenting was shown to you or learned through social norms is even more difficult. We talk about giving children the tools to not only feel their emotions, but the ability to feel comfortable in expressing them. Join us as we discuss how we navigate parenting, how we get it wrong, and the importance in apologizing to our children when we do mess up. If you're offended by the "F" word then this episode might not be for you. After all this is Life; No Filter.
