Ashleigh Warner
About this episode

In this episode I share 5 of the reasons why it's so important for children to feel and access their vulnerability.

I dive into what it looks like when they are accessing that state of vulnerability and what it looks like when they're more defended against that vulnerability.

This episode will help you know exactly what to look for in your child and why it's so essential to keep your child's heart open to the world.
