Can You Use AI in Your Parenting?: Answering Your Parenting Questions-Anna, Laura and ChatGPT Oct 12, 2023

Show notes

In this episode my friend, colleague and occasional co-host Laura Froyen and I answer your parenting questions but we have another person with us, Jen, who brings her incredible skillset of incorporating AI into the mix. Hear how ChatGPT answers the same questions after we go first.

DISCLAIMER: AI can be a helpful parenting ally, offering insights, information, and suggestions across various parenting topics. Yet, it lacks emotional understanding and the context of your family's unique dynamics. So, while AI can assist, remember to rely on your instincts and consider your child's individual needs when making parenting choices.

Navigating Adult Friendships Oct 05, 2023

Show notes

It's hard to make friends as an adult and yet the value of friendships in our life is vital. Relationship expert Esther Perel says that the quality of our relationships determines the quality of our lives. Unlike other relationships, we choose our friends. One of the 5 regrets of the dying according to Bronnie Ware IS about friends: "I wish I had stayed in touch with my friends." Friends enrich our lives, they nourish us, and remind us of who we are among other things. A returning guest Kristy Lauricella has some good advice about making and keeping friends. We both share a current friendship issue that we are dealing with. She suspects I might have fear for not wanting to confront a friend, while I question certain things.
