Where It All Began: Endings, Beginnings, and the First Authentic Parenting Episode
About this episode
To close the 10-year anniversary series, I'm sharing the very first episode of the Authentic Parenting podcast, recorded in 2015 and lost for many years. Listening back, I was surprised that it began with such a humble and honest conversation about overwhelm in the lives of busy mothers.
