Summary

You can pretty much sum up all of parenting research into one primary conclusion: Our kids become who we are. That's why we don't like using the word "parenting" to describe our task of raising kids to become great adults. Instead, we like to use the word becoming.

In this episode, Josh and Christi talk about chapter 8 in their new book, Famous at Home. They discuss the importance of giving yourself permission to focus on your own story, so that you can gracefully step into your child's story. The question you're left with is: "Who are you becoming?"
