I’m Jude Foulston, an introverted mom trying my best to raise kids who are happy & confident, kids who embrace all that makes them unique, while preparing them for an exciting future that looks really, nothing like the world we grew up in.  I believe there’s a whole set of skills that our kids aren’t being taught which will be critical for them to develop in order  to thrive in the future and I believe it’s up to us, as parents, to help them develop these skills.  The Future Smart Parent podcast explores stories of parents who are parenting a little differently, yet very much intentionally, for a changing world. We listen to stories, and explore resources with the aim of helping parents with the tools needed to parent in the 2020s.
