Why parents should be child advocates with Anna Skates

In today’s episode, we speak with Anna Skates, a child and family advocate, parent coach, and founder of Otterly. In a world where our kids are rarely considered, we need to take a step back and see them as human beings experiencing life. Why is my kid reacting this way? How is my kid experiencing this moment? Anna gives us some important mantras that can be repeated daily to improve how we react and understand heated moments. She explains why we need to be curious about how our child is experiencing the world and what we can do to support them.Kids are human and they deserve respect.Anna can be reached on:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/anna_skates/ Website: https://www.annaskates.co/ You can find more information about her company here:https://www.otter.ly/ https://www.instagram.com/otter.ly/ Please take a moment to rate and review our podcast on iTunes.
