My guest this week, Mr. Chazz, and I had such a wonderful and wide-ranging conversation. While we didn’t cover one specific topic, we dove into some of the many different areas we need to consider when it comes to being the parents (and people!) we want to be.

We explored topics like how do we find empathy in situations that feel impossible? How do we deal with people who simply don’t understand or feel bad about hitting their kids? And why community is so important to help us through it all!

Mr. Chazz’s mission is to help adults truly See, Guide and Trust children. He envisions moving the needle a little closer to world peace. He goes by, “Mr.Chazz” and he even has a song to prove it. He has been a teacher of teachers and parents, working with many schools, 1,000s of teachers and 1,000s of children.

He also earned his Master’s in Executive Leadership at American University, has appeared on platforms like Good Morning America and Parents.com.

Listen in as we talk about:

How he transitioned from being an early childhood educator to impacting thousands on TikTok and Instagram

How Mr. Chazz deals with objections from parents online when it comes to peaceful parenting
Why empathy is key to understanding other people, as well as our kids
