Our brother Tal has started his own podcast with our brothers! In this "crossover" episode we are discussing "shadow work" and how powerful it can be as we dive into the unconscious or hidden aspects of ourselves. And as we do, we find growth and progression not only in parenting, but in life in general.Â

59. Q&A: Siblings, Scriptures, Stillness, and Exercise
This week's episode is pretty low key, but we hope you find it as fun to listen to as we did recording it. For the episode we've chose to answer four questions we've received from listeners: 1) How do you stay close with siblings, especially when you're in different stages? (And help your kids stay close?) 2) What do you do for family scripture study and personal scripture study? 3) How do you find stillness? 4) What do you do for exercise? We've shared our answers, but we'd also love to hear yours!
