Alooooha…from Santa Barbara, California.  ☀️

I’m all settled in here, hanging with my two college boys and waiting for my parents to arrive for the week.  I get to celebrate my birthday on Friday — with them, and hopefully with all of you!! —  tuning into the…PERFECTLY IMPERFECT  parenting event (October 23rd-24th!)  More on that in a minute…

Meanwhile I’m happy to share this week’s podcast episode with all of you! I’ve been gathering some Q & A’s from your emails and social media messages for a while, and my son Luke (16) came on to interview ME for this episode!  My favorite part of the chat is that Luke adds quite a bit of input from his perspective as well. So fun.  (Some of your kids may enjoy listening in on this one.)  We cover some actual parenting questions (how to respond to a tween who spends most of his time in his room, what to do about toddlers who constantly get out of their beds, and more- ) as well as some ‘just for fun’ questions (how’s my bang-growout process going? and more-) Luke does a great job ‘hosting’ the show and I hope you all enjoy!

If you do not yet have tickets for this weekend’s all-digital Perfectly Imperfect Parenting Event, I hope you’ll grab one now!
Use this link to sign up:  boymom.perfectlyimperfect.org.  I’ll be speaking on: “What Your Son Needs Most from You, Now.”

And there are many other amazing speakers as well.  (And the good news is, you’ll have to the end of 2020 to listen to all of the messages. ) Here are just some of the incredible speakers…

    Loved your Q&A with Luke. I do have a question though about your upcoming seminar. Is it primarily going to be for moms of young kids or teens? We are entering a new season in our home where we have two kids at college and one teen son still at home. Finding helpful tips on how to navigate these uncharted waters is very difficult. I definitely feel perfectly imperfect for this current season. Hopefully this topic will be included but if not might I encourage you to do some talks about this season of life. I would even love to hear what your sons at college find helpful or not helpful from their mom in this season of their life. I feel like you can find hundreds of books about all other seasons of parenting but nothing about the hardest season of all, letting go.

      Thank you Stacey! So glad you enjoyed the episode!๐Ÿ˜ƒ With around 50 speakers I have a feeling the event will address just about every stage and season of raising kids! I don’t know all of the topics, but I think you’ll find tons of encouragement and practical help. My talk will apply to the teen years for sure, and I think many others will too. As for college years, I am not sure — Love your idea, too, for future writing/episodes! Blessings and thank you! Hope you can join the event!
