What do we want our children to believe about themselves? And how do we help them build a strong inner identity, so they’re less likely to suffer from depression or anxiety?
I’m super excited to share this special conversation with a dear friend, Kadzo Kangwana. Kadzo’s wisdom and support in the early years of my parenting have influenced the work I do today. And her recent book ‘Noble Soul: A Guide to Spiritual Growth for Women’ is a must-read for women and anyone raising a woman!
