SENSITIVE TOPIC Parental Advisory Advised!

Can a warm parent-child relationship safeguard your child from misinformation about sex and intimacy? In this engaging episode, we're joined by Caralee Frederick, a renowned licensed clinical social worker and certified Gottman therapist. Caralee offers her expertise on why proactive education by parents is crucial.

We explore methods for teaching healthy boundaries, body positivity, and respectful interactions with others in age-appropriate ways, making these necessary conversations less daunting and more effective.

As we navigate through the various stages of a child’s development, we touch on practical strategies for addressing puberty, sexual development, and the inevitable exposure to inappropriate content.

From the basics of sexual anatomy to the complexities of consent and intimacy, this episode equips parents with the tools and confidence needed to approach these topics thoughtfully.

Join us for a comprehensive discussion aimed at empowering parents to reclaim their role as the primary educators in their children's understanding of sexuality and relationships.
