Raising Daughters To Uncover Their Magic with Cherisse Zelesky

How are you teaching your children to be strong in their values? With social media, bullying, and so much to navigate as a child today, it’s more important than ever to teach our children to stay true to themselves. Joining me today is the wonderful Cherisse Zelesky. I discovered Cherisse through a news feature on her book,  I Miss You Already, which is a children’s book that celebrates a mother’s love and captures the moments that pass all too quickly. There’s nothing more bittersweet than watching your child grow, change and move on right before your very eyes. Cherisse is also the co-author of Big Laughs, Bigger Lessons, the executive director of Zelesky Now, speaker, lifestyle coach, but more importantly a wife to Gary, mother of Nicole, and grandmother to five. In this episode, Cherisse Zelesky and I talk about her journey as a mom with her daughter Nicole and the unique perspective she has now that her daughter is a mother as well. Cherisse explains the difficult home life that she grew up in and how she learned the importance of being a supportive, loving, caring, parent through her relationship with God. Both Cherisse and I have unique experiences raising daughters and there is a lot to learn from one another in this incredible conversation. Tune in to Episode 74 of Uncover Your Magic and learn Cherisse’s journey as a parent and now as a grandmother!Some Questions I Ask:What did you pull from your own childhood when you were raising your daughter?
