Kids Today with The Parenting Mentor Sue Groner

Susan G. Groner is the founder of The Parenting Mentor. This resource works one-on-one with families and corporations that recognize the importance of helping their working parents reduce everyday stress and thrive both at work and home. She is the author of Parenting with Sanity and Joy, 101 simple strategies. Additionally, she is the mother of two reasonably well-adjusted grown adults.

In this episode, Dayna talks with Susan Groner about her parenting journey and how to parent your children. Dayna and Susan both share their experiences raising children and when they found it most difficult. Susan explains why it's essential to ask your children questions and allow them to explore their interests instead of yours. Susan also talks about how she was the "original stalker" by figuring out how to get a phone call with Daryl Hall from Hall and Oates. Dayna also talks with Wilene Dunn about the return of live events and what that means for speakers in a post-covid world.
