The Parenting Wisdom
The Parenting Wisdom Podcast is a place where we explore parenting from a truly holistic perspective. I believe that a wise parent is one who asks questions, keeps an open mind, and also trusts their deep inner knowing.
Here, we integrate insights from psychology, sociology, holistic medicine, child development science, philosophy, and ancient wisdom. Because there is no single “right” way to parent — each of us is unique, and every child is a unique soul.
The guiding principle of The Parenting Wisdom Podcast is that parents are their children’s leaders. And as leaders, we must be both humble and courageous as we raise children who will grow into independent, resilient, and fulfilled human beings — ready to share their unique gifts and live lives of meaning and purpose.
We believe that our children are strong and capable, and that challenges are part of their growth. Our role is to let them face those challenges while remaining their safe haven — the steady presence they can always count on, no matter what.

Finding Joy in the Hard: A Mother’s Story of Love, Loss, and Meaning- A Conversation with Suzanne Andora Barron
In today’s powerful and heartfelt episode, I sit down with Suzanne Andora Barron—yoga instructor, breathwork and meditation guide, and host of the Finding Joy in the Hard podcast.

This episode is a moving reminder for all of us to slow down, savor the fleeting moments of parenthood, and live each day with intention.
