How to Stop Beating Yourself Up | POF56
Parenting Our Future
One of the things I’ve been really good at, especially since becoming a mom, is beating myself up. I know you know what I mean. As moms, we all do it because we think we have to do it all.

We know being a parent is the most important job in the world and when we struggle, most of us have deep shame.

Parenting Our Future
This is an episode that EVERY parent needs to listen to. Pornography is simply, picture poison and is a health crisis we can’t ignore. Any child with a device has access to porn. By the age of 12, it’s extremely rare for a child not to have seen a pornographic image according to my guest and author, Kristen Jenson. There are SO MANY reasons why you NEED to teach your children to reject porn.
