My 19-year-old daughter, Cierra, is my guest today. You’re going to hear a very candid, honest, and open conversation between us. Our chat covers such topics ranging from confidence, therapy, body image, parenting, to so much more. I have a feeling you’ll love it as we take you down memory lane. If you’re a parent (or thinking of becoming one), this episode is a must listen!!!

- How Cierra applied her own individuality in school
- Why “bullying” has become a catch all term
- The reason behind Cierra starting track
- How and when I knew Cierra was becoming obsessive with track
- Should you allow your kids to quit what they’ve signed up for?
- How Brock began to show OCD tendencies at 7 years old and how Bret and I dealt with it
