Summary

Any day I get to hug Sissy Goff is a great day! She's one of your favorites (and mine too). Sissy is one of the most trusted voices when it comes to parenting and raising kids. Today, we talk about identifying and rewiring anxiety in us and our parent friends. I think this is SUCH a helpful conversation if you are a parent, an aunt or uncle, a babysitter, a friend, or just anybody that loves a miniBFF. Sissy's newest book, The Worry-Free Parent is incredibly helpful. What a gift Sissy is to us all! . . . . Subscribe to Let's Read the Gospels with Annie F. Downs HERE.
