🌱Raising confident, curious, real-world ready kids ↓

We grew up bored out of our minds… and that bore We grew up bored out of our minds… and that boredom turned into tree forts, made-up games, terrible garage bands, and whole imaginary worlds.Our kids? They rarely even make it to the starting line of creativity.
Not because they’re “less imaginative,”
but because something is always there to fill the silence before their brain gets a chance to.Creativity needs space.
Confidence needs friction.
Curiosity needs boredom.And when every dull moment is replaced with instant stimulation, kids never learn how to access their inner world... the place where ideas, passions, and identity actually form.That’s exactly why I wrote Uninfluenceable: to help parents rebuild that space so kids can grow into who they are, not who a screen tells them to be.Comment GETIT and I’ll send you the link to grab your copy
Remember when we used to be bored as kids? Like, * Remember when we used to be bored as kids?
Like, *actually* bored.
Staring at the ceiling.
Making up games.
Turning sticks into magic wands and backyards into whole worlds.That boredom wasn’t a flaw... it was the spark. ⚡️
It forced us to think, imagine, create, become.Now so many kids never even reach that moment.
Screens rush in before creativity has a chance to breathe.
And we wonder why they feel less curious… less confident… less them.Boredom isn’t the enemy.
It’s the birthplace of self-trust.That’s exactly why I wrote Uninfluenceable: to help parents give their kids space to grow into who they are, not who a screen tells them to be.Comment GETIT and I’ll send you the link to grab your very own copy of Uninfluenceable
The other day I watched a group of kids at the par The other day I watched a group of kids at the park.
They ran, climbed, laughed… until one pulled out a phone.
And just like that... the play stopped.It wasn’t intentional. It’s just become the default mode.And that’s the problem. Kids aren’t choosing screens over connection… the world is teaching them to.That’s why I wrote Uninfluenceable: to help parents build a different default.
One where curiosity, focus, and self-trust still have room to grow.💥 Comment GETIT and I’ll send you the link to grab your copy
I spent years trying to shrink myself to fit in: t I spent years trying to shrink myself to fit in:
to be liked, accepted, approved of.And now I see kids growing up in a world that pressures them to do the same thing… just through screens and algorithms instead of yearbooks and cliques.But it doesn’t have to be that way.
We can raise kids who already know who they are: before the world tells them who to be.That’s why I wrote Uninfluenceable.
It’s the guide I wish I had sooner... the one that helps you raise kids who are confident, curious, and grounded in themselves… not what the culture says they should be.💥 Comment GETIT and I’ll send you the link to grab your copy.
All I want for Christmas is to raise kids the algo All I want for Christmas is to raise kids the algorithm can’t rewrite.Because the world is loud.
It’s constantly telling our kids who to be, what to want, and how to fit in.
And most days, it feels like we’re swimming against the current just to protect what’s real — their curiosity, their confidence, their childhood.But it’s worth it.
Every boundary, every reset, every moment they choose connection over consumption… it matters.That’s why I wrote the book Uninfluenceable... for parents who are ready to raise kids grounded in who they are, not what the culture tells them to be.💥 Comment GETIT and I’ll send you the link to grab your copy.
Culture’s teaching our kids to chase trends, fol Culture’s teaching our kids to chase trends, followers, and validation on loop.
So I’m teaching mine something different.That they don’t need to be seen to have value.
That their focus is their freedom.
That knowing who they are matters more than keeping up.Because the truth is... if we don’t teach it at home, the internet will.✨ My book Uninfluenceable is for parents who are done watching their kids get shaped by algorithms and pressure to perform.Comment GET IT if you're that parent... I'll get a copy in your hands ASAP
