Hi friend, to celebrate the fifth birthday of the podcast we're doing something extra special this week.

Every day I'm airing a mini episode with a throwback to an early episode of 3 in 30

that has deeply impacted my life and been part of my motherhood journey of learning how to love.

For this series I'm only going to share one takeaway from the original episode

so it will be a quick and easy tool for you to think about or even put into practice today.

And then if you're interested in hearing the rest of the episode I'll link the original and the show notes.

For today's mini episode I'm throwing it back to the episode that put 3 in 30 on the map.

This was the first episode that was widely shared back in 2018 and it brought a lot of new listeners to the podcast.

Sharing episodes really does make a huge difference to the growth of a podcast and I'm so grateful to every one of you

who have shared an episode that has made a difference to you with your friends, family or social media over the past five years.

I'm also so grateful if you're participating in our five days five way sharing challenge this week.

I'm giving away $500 as a thank you for sharing the podcast with your people.

Each day you'll have a chance to enter the giveaway for $500 by sharing the show in a different unique way.

There'll be one grand prize winner at the end of the week who will get $500 and there will also be four runner-up winners

who will get a care package for me so enter each day if you can.

For today's five days five ways challenge we invite you to share a favorite 3 in 30 episode on your Instagram story.

It's even better if you show your face and explain why you love the podcast or write a few meaningful words in the caption on the slide.

If you tag me in your account as public then I'll be able to see it and re-share it, though that is not required.

After you've shared go to the link 3 in 30 podcast.com slash 5 F-I-V-E and fill out the form to be entered in the giveaway.

We'd love to see a screenshot of what you shared on your story.

Okay, so in this episode I talk with clinical psychologist Dr. Katie Penry about why it's important that we look up from our phones and engage with our babies and children to help them learn that they are seen and seeable.

This can be difficult in our modern technological world and we don't want this episode to bring you guilt.
