Summary

EP107. We've all heard the proverb "it takes a village to raise a child." Back in the day this made sense. Extended families lived near-by and neighbours were considered family. Today, many of us live far away from our family. We don't have close relationships with our neighbours. For the most part, we are raising our children on our own. In this episode, Renee breaks down what a modern day "village" looks like and why you should be considering teachers, nannies, trainers, and the UberEats guy, members of your village.
