Creating a Family Culture: Values, Vision, and Identity ​ | Ep070

I’ve got something special for you in this episode. I sat down with Melissa Smith, the genius behind Family Brand, and we had such a great chat about bringing intention into family life. Picture this: using business ideas—like building a strong culture and setting a clear vision—but for your family. Cool, right? Melissa got real with me, sharing how she turned her marriage around after a rough patch and built a family life she’s proud of. It’s honest, it’s inspiring, and it hit me right in the feels.We dug into some practical stuff too—like getting your kids to help shape your family’s values (who knew they’d have such good ideas?) and making time to just hang out together, even when life’s a total whirlwind. If you’re looking for ways to make your family stronger or just want to live a little more on purpose, this one’s for you.KASSIDYInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/kassidy.warren Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/kassidywarren/ MelissaInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/heymelissasmith/Listen to “FYOG” Podcast on Apple Podcast https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/for-your-own-good/id1793769313Watch “FYOG” Podcast on Spotify https://open.spotify.com/show/1UfWzqSpuL685ReFGnIrgBWatch on YouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@KassidyWarren
