This one has lighthearted summer music vibes but goes deep as we discuss the power of our words (especially through the lens of parenting) and share lessons learned so far this year. We hope this episode has you reflecting on summer concerts of your past and those in your future, and inspires you to know the power of your words and those you model to use.
