Extraordinary Moms Podcast - A podcast by Jessica Dahlquist

My guest today is Christine Carter, author of the new book "The New Adolescence." She is a researcher and mom of teenagers who is digging deep on the affects of distraction in our kids' lives and how it often leads to anxiety and stress. This book offers practical guidance to address this issue, and I hope it will leave you feeling equipped and hopeful. She also shares how she was able to get her doctorate with little ones at home. She's truly a superwoman! Show Notes: Pick up her new book "The New Adolescence" or her former books "The Sweet Spot" and "Raising Happiness" Today's Show is Sponsored by... Kosmatology is a kids skincare line, made with kids with sensitive skin in mind. Their lotion bar, made without all the icky preservatives, is a fantastic alternative to messy lotions, and it was truly a game changer for the founder's child with eczema.
