What Are Giant Companies Really Putting In Our Food? Jan 12, 2024

Show notes

If you take a look at grocery store aisles across America, it's likely the majority of the food you'll pass is loaded with chemical ingredients you can't even pronounce. Yet, the majority of Americans have let that become the norm, without wondering how eating this food and feeding it to their children is contributing to the growing amount of sickness and disease we see in our country. The good news is, people like author and TrueMed co-founder Calley Means are calling out the food industry. Calley joins Sean and Rachel this week to discuss the ways the food industry and government seem to promote an unhealthy diet, and how it's impacting our kids, farmers, and those who live in poverty.

Later Calley discusses how he breaks down this broken system in his new book, 'Good Energy,' that's set to hit shelves in May of 2024.

Being A Care-Free ‘Tween’ Is A Thing of The Past. The Culprit? Social Media. Jan 11, 2024

Show notes

15 years ago, girls ages 8-13 were worried about playing sports, sparkly lip balms, and which food-shaped earrings to wear. Now, young girls have 6-step skincare routines, smartphones, and no regard for many of the activities that used to be considered cornerstones of happy childhoods. So why is this happening, and how can it be good for our kids? Sean and Rachel are joined by their daughter and writer at The Federalist Evita Duffy-Alfonso as they discuss how the extinction of being a true “tween” reflects the damage social media and other cultural norms are causing in society.

Later, they discuss how ‘mommy influencers,’ may be permanently damaging their children by sharing their lives online without permission and how parents can preserve the joy of their kids’ childhood by prioritizing their well-being over their desire for

technology.
