Interview with Nadim Saad – Part 1

My next interview was so good I’ve split it into two parts! So for the next two I am joined by the excellent Nadim Saad. 

Nadim is a parenting and relationship coach and author of seven books including the highly acclaimed Kids Don’t Come With a Manual, Happy Confident Me Journal series and Raising Happy Confident Kids. Father of three and founder of The Happy Confident Company – focused on helping children become the best version of themselves.
