Welcome Back No-Problem Parents!
Today's episode is all about discovering your purpose and passion and how doing so will create positive social change. My guest today believes the shortest distance between contemporary social shortfalls and optimal social paradigms is through the family (no matter how one defines family) and ancillary caregivers.
We discuss the Four Pillars that parents and their children can use as their foundation for discovering their purpose and passion.
