Parenting and Mindfulness: A Discussion with Nadia Davis

Summary

This episode is a recording of a conversation with author, Nadia Davis, about parenting and mindfulness.

Last month I had the pleasure of talking with Nadia about her new book  Home Is Within You: A Memoir of Recovery and Redemption (Girl Friday Books, 2021). In the interview, we talked a lot about Nadia’s experiences with trauma, her struggles with addiction, and her transformational healing.

We spent a great deal of time on the devastating impact of deeply felt shame. In addition, we discussed the need for serious changes in the way the systems within our society deal with trauma and addiction.

Our time together passed quickly and it was impossible to touch upon all the meaningful content within Nadia’s memoir. One of those topics, parenting and mindfulness, is of great interest to both Nadia and myself. So, we arranged for a second meeting to continue our conversation with a focus on this special and important subject.
