“Entering with curiosity says to our children: ‘I see you. You matter to me. And what you think is important.'” ~ Kate McCauley

When educator, therapist and community advocate Kate McCauley and I first planned this conversation, we thought we would be focused on parenting. But humble inquiry and shared power have important places in any good relationship.

Listen to Choose to be Curious #139: Humble Inquiry for Parents, with Kate McCauley

(This show aired first in March 2021 and was refreshed in November 2022.)

Check out Kate McCauley and the Center for Parents and Teens. I am proud (and grateful) to have had the Center for Parents and Teens as a sponsor of my show for many years.

Kate joined me once before, along with Michael Swisher, to talk about curiosity and adolescence.

If you liked this conversation, you might enjoy my episode “Be an Askable Adult, with Ashely Blowe, Siobhan Grayson & Scotney Young.”
