Welcome back to No One Told Us, the podcast that tells the truth about parenting and talks about all the stuff you wish you knew before having kids. I'm your host, Rachel, and today I'm speaking with my friend Cynthia R. Scott.

Cynthia is a certified meditation teacher and teaches meditation and mindfulness to children in schools and online throughout North America to enhance focus, reduce stress and anxiety, and improve
