Before You Email the Principal: Let's Talk Health Class

Parents have a lot to say about health and sex education in schools, which is fair. In fact, it’s the reason we named our own health + sex ed curriculum That Health Class (insert wink, wink) because of the baggage those words carry. If adults received this education at all, their memories of health + sex ed induce giggles, queasiness, a cold sweat or all three! So why is health + sex ed so important? What should it cover? What are the biggest objections parents have and do they actually hold up? The answers might surprise you. Show Notes: THAT HEALTH CLASS Watch the full episode on Youtube!

Finding Purpose & The Reality of Plant Medicine with Jordan Foster

n this episode, we sit down with Jordan Foster, the Style Director behind Favorite Daughter, to pull back the curtain on balancing a high-profile fashion career with an intensive, lifelong relationship with "the woo." While Jordan is a master at crafting impeccable aesthetics, this conversation navigates the deeper, often messy healing that happens off-camera. We unpack her journey with plant medicine—and why the trend of "journeying" is only half the battle—discussing the critical importance of long-term integration, somatic therapy, and building true safety within the nervous system. We also get real about the intersection of motherhood and high sensitivity, exploring the challenges of parenting "deeply feeling" children while navigating her own triggers and the ongoing process of "firing herself" from professional obligations that no longer align with her soul. And, because we couldn't let her leave without an answer, we finally settle the family mystery: who is the actual favorite daughter? If you've ever felt like career success felt empty, or if you're a "sensitive" trying to navigate the noise of modern life, this episode is a reminder that the most important work isn't what we show the world—it's what we do to build a home inside ourselves.

The 5 ingredients to keep off kids’ skin

As the obsession with expensive, make-me-look-younger skin care products rages on, the public deserves to know why some of these products are concerning. There are real medical reasons for young people to avoid these products. We explain which ingredients should be avoided in the tween and teen years, and which ingredients actually help (yep, there are some good ones out there!). This episode isn’t about the bananas nature of already young people seeking younger-looking skin, but rather the potential risks that can come from slathering this stuff all over themselves.

When Your Kid’s Friends Worry You

Friendship choices are a huge part of growing up and can shape kids in great (and challenging ways.) When parents are concerned about friends it’s hard to know if another kid is a “bad influence” or just part of a normal part of the trial and error of relationships. Figuring out how to handle our concerns can be the trickiest part so this episode focuses on how to constructively address kids’ friendships, addressing as kids age up, the critical aspects of safety, and knowing when to watch from the sidelines.
