Are Large Families Better For Kids Than Small Families?

There's a ton of talk lately about whether large or small families are better for kids, with most people saying small families are "obviously" better. This comes on the heels of influencer Ballerina Farm sharing that she's pregnant with her 9th, after which she received pretty hard push back from some people on X. In this episode, I'll walk you through why you're probably thinking about large families wrong, and explain the family teams way of thinking about this where the larger the family, the larger the blessing.

Build Family Assets, NOT Careers with Jeremy and Kristin Netting

One of the things we talk a lot about here at Family Teams is the idea of ASSETS over CAREERS. In other words, we've found it extremely beneficial in building family teams to find ways to build assets together - especially businesses. While it's not right for everyone, we think it's right for way more people than are currently doing it! Jeremy and Kristin Netting join us today to talk about how they've started building family assets, and it goes WAY beyond just "start a business". We're talking things like how to actually work with your family as a team, how to start training your kids young so they want to be involved, the power of local community and land, and how to navigate the cultural tension of "limiting" your kids' choices. Absolute must-listen if you're ready to break free from building another man's family assets and start building your own.
