I’m not sure who’s more tired of my nagging at this point in the summer — my kid, or me. So lately I’m thinking about this Katie Arnold-Ratliff piece: “It felt like serendipity when I came across a random Instagram post from a parenting account, which challenged parents to refrain from correcting their child’s behavior for a week (except in moments when they’re endangering their safety or someone else’s, obviously). What might this feel like, the post asked? What might it change about the dynamic you and your child share? How might it shift the way you parent going forward?”

She tried it! And honestly, it sounds pretty appealing.

Jamie Kenney recently got a chance to chat with 27-year-old Hollywood veteran Isabelle Fuhrman, who’s been at this since she was 10 years old and is currently appearing in Horizon: An American Saga. But she’s always wanted to have a Plan B: “I think I've always wanted to find a balance in my life … to cultivate that. I don't think I'll ever want to be just living in this bubble,” Fuhrman said. Which is how she got started training to be a doula! And she told us all about her journey.
