A pandemic conversation where I had written a book about what our kids need next when they leave us in this crazy, rapidly changing world.
What was happening when that conversation was happening in real time was as I was going out and talking about the book, talking about the future, I kept hearing people ask the same question over and over again, which was
How do we make sure that our kids don't give up or burn out before they get there?
Like we do need to know what our kids need next, but what do they need right now and what is most timely?
and timeless like it's gonna work no matter what the conditions are, no matter what the circumstances are.
The book came out at the very beginning of the summer 2023.
And before that it was really a whirlwind, like nine months of writing, the
US Surgeon General had declared that we were facing a unprecedented youth mental health crisis, which I was feeling and experiencing in my own home.
And my friends were also experiencing with their kids.
And so what whole child whole life
was was really like writing the book I needed right now, which was this cross-training reference of all the things we need to know that go into making sure our kids can be healthy and whole.
And I think that has been the journey I've been on also as a mom coming out of that lockdown wave of the pandemic.
But continuing to live in a world that is altered and that needs that constant kind of like adjustment and recalibration that still feels very chaotic.
constantly asking like what can it take?
For me and my kids to thrive regardless of what's going on around us.
Yeah, so I want to bop back over to when I wrote making it for a moment, because the impetus for me to start writing was
You know, I was a parent, I had been a teacher, I ran a school, was a social worker, sports coach, all these things kind of like on the front lines working with kids.
And there were so many questions I had about how to really take good care of them and make sure that they were ready for the world that we were trying to prepare them for.
And then I left local work.
I left working at a school.
