Hi and welcome to episode 222. Today we're talking a little bit about reentry

getting back into the world after the peak of the pandemic and finding a new

normal. Hi this is is Deney.

I'm the founder of Simple Families.

Simple Families is an online community

for parents who are seeking a simpler,

more intentional life.

In this show, we focus on minimalism with kids,

positive parenting, family wellness, and decreasing the mental load. My

perspectives are based in my first-hand experience raising kids but also rooted in my PhD in child development.

So you're going to hear conversations that are based in research, but more importantly, real life. Thanks for joining us.

Hi there thanks for tuning in I want to start by acknowledging and thanking

Jasmine Bradshaw again for letting me share

her episode last week in how to talk to kids about racism.

And if you haven't already been over to her podcast first

name basis I highly recommend you jump over and subscribe in the past few weeks

I've had the opportunity to learn from Jasmine and many other amazing black women and I am excited to continue to

listen to their stories and to continue to learn about race and to bring that

conversation home and to take action. On behalf of simple families I'll be working more and

more to highlight the voices of people of color in particular within the

minimalism and parenting community. I have a few

collaborations planned and if you know anyone that would be a great fit please email
