We’ve got a super rich conversation for you today, wild souls. As always I love having parents on the show and getting to ask them not only about their own processes and experiences, but how in the complex world of 2016, they are imparting the lessons for their children that they didn’t get to learn. This means being a REAL role model. We get into that and much much more today with our guest Andrea Owen, host of Your Kick Ass Life podcast and author of 52 Ways to Live a Kick-Ass Life
Enjoy!
