Raise Resilient, Whole-Hearted, and Empowered Kids - Join a community of childhood experts, active parents, and even kids themselves to support the growth of our next generation. This 9 part documentary series explores the challenges to parenting in the modern world. From devices to drugs, from yelling to over nurturing, what’s the right approach?

Our parents got a lot of things wrong but, in a way, they also had it easy. There was a “formula” that was to be followed…one passed on each generation. The problem is that it was broken. Trauma, poor judgment, parental disagreements, and more all led to us entering a new phase.

Now the experts tell us what to do and it doesn’t always feel right. Are these kids better off or are they doomed to get crushed in an ever changing world? It’s a very difficult time to be alive- let alone to be a parent.

We went about interviewing the world’s leading experts in an effort to bring you this raw, authentic, and powerful piece. There are a lot of different opinions out there and yet there’s also a lot the experts agree on. 

Join us in Conscious Parenting and learn how to do it just a little bit better. Generations to come will benefit from you doing this!

Do we so badly want to get it “right”… that we miss what’s truly important?

Modern parenting can sometimes feel like a laundry list of boxes to check and challenges to handle…

Toxins are in the air, water, food, and household… Technology is taking over creativity and connection… Outside influences and peer pressure stifle children’s independence… Lack of motivation and fear of failure curb kids’ natural desire to contribute… And on and on.

Plus, as parents, we have our own triggers from past unmet needs that we unwittingly unleash on our kids. We struggle to keep them fed and get them to classes. We have short fuses, dramas, and time crunches. The world’s toughest job can feel very lonely and overwhelming. And the last we want to do – tempting though it can be sometimes – is perpetuate the cycle of trauma by lashing out at our kids. (By the way, that doesn’t make you a bad parent – it makes you HUMAN.)

That’s why a new path is emerging that is allowing both parents and kids to…

Not be “perfect”…but present.

Not bombard kids with information…but support each other with connection.

Not deflate hopes…but build confidence.
