We all know there’s no such thing as a perfect parent—but then why do we so often fall into the trap of thinking we need to be that perfect parent raising the perfect child?
Brittney Serpell is an author and expert in helping parents create strong relationships with their children. She joins me today to share what she believes is the true goal of parenting. Our discussion focuses on all the highs and lows of parenting, and Brittney’s authenticity about her own experiences gives insight into what works, what doesn’t, and how to create systems and boundaries that create the family culture you long for.
