Timeless Parenting Wisdom {Episode-107 with Chrys Howard}

Do you ever wish you had a wise mentor — someone with life experience that might pour into you and your family? 

It seems like whenever I am gathered with a group of young moms, the topic of mentors come up…And while some women are blessed to have a wise mentor in their life, oftentimes I hear them say how they only WISH they had someone like that.  

I would love to see more connecting between the generations, and that is something I think we can all work on — in our churches and in our communities (and in our own families!) But meanwhile, I love that I get to share a dream mentor on the Podcast today!  

Chrys Howard, aka ‘2Momma’//Duck Dynasty Grandma, is with us to share some tried and true, timeless parenting wisdom, and I think you’re going to love it!  Chrys has been speaking into the lives of younger women for years through a radio show and now on her awesome “Rocking it Grand” Podcast.  She has also written a number of books, including co-authoring Strong and Kind, which Korie Robertson was on the Podcast to talk about in Episode 97.

Today we dive in to a list of topics that I think you’ll love! From the importance of Mom-communities, to the lost art of manners, to why traditions matter, to the value of FUN… and more!  Grab a cup of tea or put on your walking shoes and join us now!
