The Power of Being Present with Your Children

In this episode, the host shares a powerful message about the importance of being present with your children during the holidays. While younger individuals may desire presents, as parents, we realize that the true gift is having our children be present in our lives. The founder of Kinko's, Paul Orfalea, when asked about success, highlighted that it is when your children want to be with you as adults. This message encourages parents to reflect on the choices they are making with their kids now, so that they will choose to spend time with you and their own families in the future. The gifts we have to offer our children include love, support, and being present in their lives.
