Meet Shannon
Shannon is an anxiety driven, overthinking, perfectionist who stresses over not b eing perfect. She is blessed to be a mom of three miracles. Her oldest is adopted out of the foster care system. After 11 dark years of infertility, she was surprised with a twin pregnancy. Shannon turned in her special education teacher hat to fulfill her dream career as a behavioral and educational consultant.
Meet Jess
Jess is a teacher at heart and a natural leader. Her goal is to leave sparkles of positivity wherever she goes. The practice of finding joy hasn't always been easy - from loving and leaving an addict, to finding self-love and new love, to navigating a nightmare of an adoption process - she is stronger for enduring challenges and is now living her own dream life. Much of her time is spent with her son, but her life wouldn’t be complete without also contributing to the field of education in various ways.

66. Intensive Parenting: A Public Health Crisis
Welcome to this episode of our podcast, where we dive deep into the concept of "intensive parenting." Inspired by our recent listen to the podcast episode, Parents Are Not All Right, we explore the surgeon general's alarming warning about a nationwide public health crisis affecting parents today. Hosts discuss the evolution of parenting styles over the years, leading to the prevalent notion of intensive parenting.
Join us as we unpack how parenting has evolved over the decades, shifting from a noun to a verb, and ultimately to a role of protector and currently, teacher. The hosts share their personal experiences with parenting, exploring how they have been navigating and alleviating feelings of guilt and societal pressure. They reflect on the impact of social media on their parenting journeys, recognizing that while it can often add to the pressure, supportive parenting communities can provide a much-needed positive influence and the encouragement we all need!
