Description

With summer in full swing and routines shifting, they offer a warm and honest conversation about the importance of intentionally connecting—both with your kids and with yourself—by stepping outside.


Whether it's a camping trip, a simple walk in the woods, or unplugging for an afternoon picnic, this episode is a loving reminder that some of the most powerful family moments don’t happen in front of screens—but around the campfire, on a trail, or under the stars.
