Bellamy Shoffner is a social entrepreneur, writer, blogger living in Charlottesville. Bellamy and I first connected for the podcast, a few years ago to discuss her magazine Hold The Line.

Samantha-Kemp Jackson is a parenting expert, mom of four, author of the Multiple Mayhem Mamma blog and the Parenting Then and Now Podcast.
Her answers to questions like, how do you talk to kids about consent, how do you manage public tantrums and how do you not get in an argument with a 5 year old are the things every parent needs to hear or be reminded of.
You're doing a great job, but grab a coffee or tea and a huge piece of cake and sit down and listen to Samantha as she answers your parenting questions with humor, sage advise and a practical confidence every parent needs!
