Out Here with Kids
Out Here with Kids is a parenting and family podcast about what actually happens when adults and children move through the world together... on airplanes, in grocery stores, in libraries, in parking lots, everywhere life is loud and unpredictable.
Hosted by Nancy L. Weaver, a public health professor and the founder of Support Over Silence, this show starts from an honest place: kids will always be raised by imperfect adults trying to navigate an increasingly complicated world.
This podcast is an authentic look at raising kids, doing our own healing on the fly, and finding connection in the moments we hope no one is filming. Each week, Nancy shares a real story, a bit of research, and the steady reminder that we’re all learning as we go, out here, together, with kids.
