πŸŽ™οΈ TMIT Teammates #3: Noah Zaltz on Building Family Norms

In this episode of TMIT Teammates, we sit down with our friend Noah Zaltz, a fellow investor, deep thinker, and someone who brings the same intention to family life as he does to his work.

We explore what it means to create a family culture that feels like home, not through rigid rules, but by shaping a sense of β€œnormal”—the daily rhythms, values, and habits that help kids feel safe, grounded, and capable of becoming their best selves.

In this conversation, we cover:

  • Why β€œnormal” is a feeling, not a strict set of rules.
  • The role of labeling exceptions (treats, adventure days) to maintain family balance.
  • How family norms emerge from both our upbringing and conscious new choices.
  • Nutrition, sleep, and outdoor time as pillars of a healthy family baseline.
  • Potty training and other milestones as opportunities to honor a child’s readiness and agency.
  • The importance of having an β€œin here” family culture as a safe base for exploring the world.
  • Why this generation of parents is reframing conversations about family and culture.

TMIT Teammates is about learning from families we admire, trading stories and hacks, and building intentional home lives together.
