Part 2: A discussion with child expert Karen Lock Kolp about Your Family Stories and preserving family legacy

In my last article I wrote about appearing on the podcast We Turned Out Okay: The modern parent’s guide to old-school parenting.

Host Karen Lock Kolp M.Ed. had me on the show to talk about my new book Your Family Stories: Easily capture your loved ones’ memories for future generations and to inspire her listeners to record family life stories and memories this Christmas and holiday season.
