Emotional Learning in Motherhood: Slumberkins Co-Founders on 'All Feelings Welcome'

Kelly Oriard and Callie Christensen are the founders of Slumberkins, a brand that’s reimagining how parents approach emotional learning with their kids. As a former family therapist and special education teacher, they have poured their hearts into creating over a dozen characters and stories to help guide kids through emotions, and they are having  a big impact on parents too. In fact, they just published a book, All Feelings Welcome, just for parents, to embrace the full range of emotions, so we can break the cycles of burnout and over-pleasing.You're going to love hearing how their journey started, how Slumberkins has grown from it's humble beginnings, to Shark Tank, to an Emmy-nominated TV show. It’s a conversation full of heart, and I can’t wait to share it with you.  5:00 How Slumberkins began  10:30 Being kind to ourselves  17:45 How Chatbooks is part of the Slumberkins story  23:30 How the character Otter is helping military families  24:20 Family transitions during divorce  34:00 Be the friend that captures others motherhood moments  Use code: MOMFORCE for 20% off your first  Chatbooks order!  Follow Vanessa Follow Chatbooks Try out HeyFam our new family chat app
