In this episode of Parenting Wisdom, I sit down with Jodi Kahn, a breakthrough coach, healer, and expert in health transformation and conscious living. Jodi is an observant Jew, a mother of three grown children, and a passionate advocate for integrating tradition, spirituality, and mindfulness into everyday life.
We explore how parents can instill values in their children by living them, how to create a home where tradition fosters connection rather than restriction, and how family rituals can help kids develop a sense of meaning, responsibility, and belonging. Jodi also shares insights from her work as a certified somatic coach, social worker, and trauma-informed practitioner, offering practical strategies for parenting with presence, resilience, and confidence.
If you're looking for ways to strengthen your family’s emotional and spiritual foundation while also supporting each child’s uniqueness, this episode is for you!
