| 0:03.3 | We're trying to be the parents that we wish we had and to be the parents we know we are capable of being. |
| 0:09.4 | That's what I'm trying to do. |
| 0:11.0 | And one of my biggest influences in doing that, someone whose books and teachings and then just actual direct parenting advice that she's given me, |
| 0:20.0 | I've been lucky enough to get to know her, |
| 0:21.9 | as well as the community that she's created that I'm a part of, Good Inside. Dr. Becky is just |

And on December 15th, she's hosting her How Not to Lose it over the |

| 1:43.2 | Well, one teacher and one classroom I have been using is master class. |
| 1:47.8 | I actually recorded a master class myself last fall on how to apply philosophy to modern life. |
| 1:54.8 | It was amazing to see the production that goes into it, the experts they bring in to help you get your best lessons out there. And then we've |
