With Whit

I reached out to Dr. Ann-Louise Lockhart to find out the best ways to talk to Sonny about race. At three, Sonny is a bit young to know the details of what is going on, but he needs to know that people come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. Dr. Lockhart is a Pediatric Psychologist, Parent Coach, and the owner of A New Day Pediatric Psychology. She is a mother of two and an all-around inspiring human being. We got great tips for parents of older children and had an enlightening conversation about raising kids in today's America, race, and how to make the world we share a better place through our kids.

It's easy to condemn the police officers who killed George Floyd. What has been more difficult is to recognize my role in systemic racism in our country. I am part of the system that fails to prosecute these crimes, demand police oversight, and invest in black-owned businesses. In the last week, I have felt an urge to do something but also felt afraid I would say the wrong thing or make it about me, or somehow fail to navigate these delicate waters in the right way. I decided the first step was to educate myself and have a discussion - Listen to people experiencing this and elevate their voices.  As suggested by a comment on my Instagram, any money I make from the ads on the podcast will go directly and entirely to the charities I put in my Black Lives Matter highlight.

It's taken me too long to figure this out, but that is because I had built my bubble well. Honestly, it wasn't until the protest brought things to my front door that I realized this was my problem too. In this message you will hear my short term and long term plans. Visit my BLACK LIVES MATTER highlight on my Instagram to help take part. I have also provided you with a five minute Breath Awareness Meditation by @mariahklyons. It is so important we remember to take care of ourselves right now.

One of the hardest parts about quarantine is not being able to be physically close with my family like I normally am. I am so grateful that all my family members are safe and healthy. Like everyone else in the world, we are experiencing our own unique, very personal AND valid challenges. My older sister, Ashley Port, is in a vastly different situation than I am in. Ashley is single, lives by herself, and is a professional event planner. In this episode, Ashley shares her story of heartbreak and how she built herself and her incredible business back up. Thank you so much, Ash, for sharing your story!! I hope all of you who are in similar situations right now find comfort from her and her message. We chatted so much that I am going to make our chat into two parts. Stay tuned for Part 2!

Locked myself in my bedroom again to share MORE SECRETS! You guys asked me SO many amazing questions about my motherhood journey. They really took me back to the very beginning. Experiencing motherhood is so personal and can at times feel isolating. I hope my answers and stories help you feel less alone and scared if you are about to be a new mom or thinking about becoming a mom. Now more than ever, my patience is being tested in quarantine. It takes a village to raise a child, and, right now, Timmy and I are a very small village. Let’s continue to use our community here for support. Feel free to send me questions anytime about my experience. As you know, I am pretty much an open book.    The Ouai: Shop new shampoos and conditioners for fine, medium and thick hair at theouai.com.
