No question is too big or too small! This is YOUR hour for judgment-free talk, as we all share tiny victories - ups and downs of growing positive relationships with children, co-parents, grandchildren. >>> Your Family and You: Adapting to Life After the Pandemic Are your children adjusting to busy schedules, places with lots of people, and social situations? Maybe you have seen some different kinds of behaviors at home and school? Summer can be one of the best times for families to reset, recharge, and create new memories! Let’s share ideas on ways to readjust together, and help our young ones ease back into the many events and experiences they have missed over the last few years. Join our conversation about how to give ourselves the grace we need to return to the activities and adventures we love so much.
