“What would happen if we told the truth about our lives?” In this final episode of season 1, Liesl Moldow shares her real, raw, and incredibly inspiring parenting journey. When Liesl graduated from business school, she had plans to change the world. She had no idea how her parenting experience would set her on a different – and vastly more meaningful – course. Liesl and her husband Charles have four kids, one who was born with acute special health care needs. The stress of caregiving nearly brought Liesl to her knees. Her path of self-discovery, along with her other daughter’s alarming struggles with anxiety, spurred her to do something to make a difference. Liesl co-founded a nonprofit, called Safe Space, to empower young people to change the conversation around mental health issues. In this refreshingly transparent conversation, we talk about crushing stigma, a new approach to supporting emotional wellbeing, and how caring for yourself as a parent can make the biggest impact.
