Raising Strong Children: The Values That Build a Better Future | Louise Kirk | EP 174

Описание: What if the lessons children need most have quietly disappeared from our classrooms?

In this conversation, I speak with Louise Kirk, UK Coordinator for *Alive to the World*, an international character-education program using storytelling to teach children the virtues and life skills that shape a meaningful future. Louise has spent years researching how modern sex and relationships education took root in the UK—and how a return to grounded, family-centered wisdom could restore clarity and confidence to young people today.

Together, we explore the power of story, the importance of early formation, the role of parents as primary educators, and why understanding our own biology and purpose can give children deeper self-respect and healthier relationships.
