Put Your Mask On First (And No, We Don't Mean the Cloth One)

The last couple years have been mentally stressful for kids and adults alike. We know that kids tend to "bounce back quickly", but that tends to make us feel like they are immune to mental health struggles...and that mindset could not be more wrong.

Our guest for Episode 3 is Jacquelyn Lazo. She is a Mental Health Advocate for kids and the author of the book "Comeback Kids: A Pocket Guide to Post-Pandemic Parenting". As a Parenting Coach, I have found this book to a true guide and manual for self-care, self-awareness and starting really difficult conversations with our kids.

If you're ready to take your head out of the sand (because many of us have been hiding there just to keep moving forward in survival mode) and become more self-aware so that your emotions and experiences are not silently driving the train, you have come to the right place.
