Description

In this heartfelt episode, host Quinn shares a touching story about a quiet Saturday spent with her son, Aidyn. While engrossed in Ta-Nehisi Coates' "A Beautiful Struggle," Quinn is drawn into an unexpected and profound conversation initiated by Aidyn's curiosity about the Bible and the wildfires in LA. This moment of connection reveals the incredible insights children can offer when we take the time to listen.

Quinn reflects on the power of embracing these interruptions as opportunities for empathy and understanding, rather than viewing them as distractions. By staying open to Aidyn's questions, Quinn discovers the profound impact these dialogues have on both parent and child. The episode encourages listeners to celebrate and cherish these precious moments of discovery with their children.
