Parent Perspectives: DJ and Roque Share the Joy of Taking Risks in Life
Description
In this episode, DJ and special guest, Rachel “Roque” Stutz (DJ’s daughter) are discussing the various types of risks that parents and children encounter, including physical, emotional, and social risks.
In the segment, they share their approaches to encouraging children to take calculated risks while balancing safety and fun and challenge the traditional definition of cowardice, arguing that it's not always about facing danger head-on and that running away from a dangerous situation can be a smart and brave decision. Tune in to hear them share the importance of standing up for one's beliefs without being aggressive or confrontational.
