Your Parenting Mojo
Hi I'm Jen, host & founder of the YourParentingMojo podcast and a '23 debut author. While the podcast has been downloaded 3+ million times, I'm new to YouTube. There's no lack of info about parenting. When I started, I longed for useful info I could trust - the kind seemed few & far between. 2 main principals guide my work:
1. Scientific Research
I look across the entire body or research on a topic
I point to the strengths of the research, as well as its limitations
I interview the researchers who are deep experts in their specific field
2. Respectful Parenting
Societal problems are perpetuated through the way we raise our children. Our interactions with them today (teaching them about race (or not...); telling our boys to "stop crying;" telling our girls to "stop being loud" shapes how they will treat others and expect to be treated in relationships. If we want our children to be part of solving the world's problems, we need to equip them with the leadership skills to do this.
