Giving Your Children the Gift of Bilingualism with Kasey Rincón

Dallin Oaks recently said that "“Learning languages is a useful preparation for missionary service and modern life. The teachers of these subjects can be parents or grandparents or members of the extended family.” As I have contemplated how I can pass the gift of bilingualism onto my children, I decided to talk to my good friend, Kasey Rincón, about her experience raising a bilingual family. Here are some of Kasey's recommendations of Instagram accounts for teaching your kids Spanish: @bilinguitos @anna.spanish.tutor @missvale.official Thank you to Designed by Nature for sponsoring this episode!

Cultivating Close Family Relationships with Kathy Marler

Kathy Marler is a friend and mentor and above all a woman I deeply admire! In a world where families are often geographically and emotionally scattered, she and her husband have raised their family in a way that has encouraged their children and grandchildren to stay both physically and emotionally close to them and to each other. Together, we discuss how to foster emotional closeness with children and grandchildren, the value of living near extended family, and how to make thoughtful decisions about where to build a life. This conversation is especially meaningful to me because these are questions that I'm actively contemplating for my own life and family. Thank you to Designed by Nature for sponsoring this episode!
