    E.113 Creating Strong Family Values - an interview with the Hashey's.

    Join us as we interview Mell from the Strong Family Co all about their 7 Elements of the Strong Family Path. We zone into a couple of the 7 elements with Mell and can't wait for you to listen and hear all about them!


    Joe & Mell have been married for 16 years and are raising 3 boys, ages 5, 11 and 13. Joe was a teacher turned entrepreneur who realized he was spending more time on his work than on his family life. Mell was a social worker turned stay at home mom. In 2020, they decided to move 2000 miles from home to a place better aligned with their family values in order to refocus on the most important organization in their lives: family!


    It was an inspiring conversation and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did.



    Be sure to follow Mell and Joe on all of their social media

A gift to parents

Thank you thank you thank you! Y’all are such a gift to parents! Your podcast is marvelous, there is something that can help any parent on here! Your podcast led me to your consultation services which were wonderful for helping our family get on track for sleep! I cannot speak highly enough of you, your skill set, and the way you connect to meet each family where they are. Thank you!
