Kristin was Keira's very first mastermind client back in 2019, and their journey together has been a beautiful unfolding of growth, impact, and transformation. Together, they discuss Kristin's inspiring work with children and teens, her profound chapter titled "The Wild Child," and the magic that exists within every young person. Kristin shares her wisdom on conscious parenting and the importance of guiding children to express their authentic selves rather than conforming to societal expectations. The conversation dives into embracing the "wild child"—those who defy the norms and live outside the box—and the critical role parents play in nurturing these children to become the powerful leaders the world needs. Kristin and Keira also explore the challenges of parenting, healing old wounds, and the deep lessons that come from raising spirited kids. They share their own experiences, struggles, and victories, reminding us that when we see the magic within our children, we can help them shine in their unique brilliance.

Kristen’s insights on reparenting, grounding practices, and nurturing the inner child provide a pathway for parents to heal and grow alongside their children. Key Takeaways: The Power of Saying Yes: Keira shares how Kristin's "yes" changed her business and why it only takes one "yes" to change a child's life. The Magic of the Wild Child: Kristin explains that children who don’t conform are often the ones who will change the world if nurtured properly. Reparenting for Healing: The importance of addressing our own inner wounds as parents and how doing so can heal our relationship with our children. Raising Conscious Children: Moving beyond traditional parenting techniques to a more intentional approach that honors the unique gifts of each child. Trusting the Next Generation: While the world may seem bleak, our children are coming into it with magic and potential we've never seen before.

    Your Voice vs. AI: Why Writing Your Book Now Is More Important Than Ever | Joshua Pellicer

    In this very real but also honest conversation with Joshua Pellicer on the I Was Born to Do This podcast, I opened up about the seismic shifts happening in our world, especially around AI, and the urgent need for authors to ink their wisdom now, more than ever. With the landscape of content creation rapidly morphing, Joshua mentioned the pivotal moment we're in. AI's ascendancy means our window to establish our voice, our expertise, through the written word, is narrowing. In the next couple of years, how we're perceived as thought leaders hinges on our ability to share our unique insights and stories. AI, while a tool of incredible potential, ushers in a future where the value of authorship could diminish, making it paramount for us to act swiftly. This isn't just about racing against the tide of technology but seizing the opportunity to embed our perspectives in a world that's increasingly looking to AI for guidance. Joshua's message is a call to action: Write that book, share your truth, and do it now, because soon, the rules of the game might just change. Key moments: 8:00 My process of writing a book 20:10 Common misconception with AI 23:22 How to properly work with AI 40:40 A message to authors about AI 46:25 Why you need to write your book now If you are anything like Joshua and want to share your magic with the world but don't know where to start, click here - https://www.joapublishing.com
