Parenting is about purpose, not popularity. In this perspective-shifting conversation, I explore why "being a parent, not a pal" is one of the most impactful choices you can make for your child’s future. Join me as I unpack the importance of setting boundaries, providing guidance, and fostering resilience to help raise well-rounded, confident children.

Through personal experiences and practical strategies, I share how purposeful parenting can strengthen family bonds while preparing kids for the challenges of adulthood. Listen as I reflect on the lessons learned from navigating tough moments, like holding my son accountable for a critical school project, and discover why kids thrive when parents prioritize wisdom, structure, and love over constant agreement.

From creating security through boundaries to modeling responsible behavior, this episode is packed with valuable insights to help you embrace your role as a nurturer, caregiver, and coach. Are you ready to take on the challenge of parenting with intention? Share your thoughts below, and let’s start building a legacy of strength, authenticity, and faith for our families.
