Is Your Teen Struggling? Here's How we can Help‪!‬ Zen(ish) Mommy

    • Parenting

Hey there, Mamas!  Do you ever feel that, despite how busy they are, your kids are missing out on some of life’s essentials? With all that’s crammed into their schedules, perhaps what they still lack is the chance to slow down and connect with the people and the world around them. This week on Zen(ish) Mommy, we chat with Natalie Silverstein, an author, volunteer, non-profit founder,  philanthropist, and passionate advocate for family and youth service. Natalie, who recently wrote the book, “Simple Acts: The Busy Teen’s Guide to Making a Difference,” discusses with us the many benefits of volunteering, including growing a child’s self-esteem, helping them develop empathy and accountability, and increasing their connection to their peers and the greater society. Listen in to hear about the many benefits of service, as well as all of the ways that you (and your kiddo) can get involved!
