Hi, Ali.

Hi, Ali.

Hi, Ali.

Hi, I.

So nice to meet you.

Thank you for being here. Thank you for being here.

Thank you for having me.

So let's just jump right in.

Tell me a little bit what's going on, kind of what's top of mind for you right now.

Okay, so I have five kids. My oldest is six and my youngest are one. They just turned one out of twins who are one.

And then I'm a five-year-old and a two and a half year old. So life is really busy and trying to cultivate really kind thoughtful people is really important to me.

And my oldest, she is six and she is in grade one. She just happened to make friends who when they spend time together and they are friends. They are lovely. But she's kind of a mean girl and my daughter never know is that when

she is gonna go to school if she's gonna be friends with her friend like she's always just waiting to know if she's going to be friends with her friend. Like she's always just waiting to know if she's going to be friends with her or not.

And waiting mode is never good for anybody.

But waiting to know if you're going to be liked that day is like a really, it's hard.

And so on the days where they're good, my daughter comes from really happy.

And on the days that they're not good, there's big emotions everywhere.

And just like not knowing how to navigate that. And we're also friends with the family as well, which makes it a bit tricky.

So just trying to encourage my daughter, like how do I encourage her other than what I have been saying like,

you should make friends with people who make you feel like your best self,

rather than just waiting to be loved.

I know that feeling, I had that as a kid, and even if that my friend from when I was a kid talks to me now
