Podcast Overview

Raising a thriving, resilient child doesn't start in high school—it begins the moment they engage with the world. But in an era of AI, social media, and a shifting educational landscape, the old roadmap is broken. Welcome to The Modern K-12, hosted by Harvard-trained education expert Julie Kim. With 15 years of experience and 2,500+ students mentored, Julie bridges the gap between academic research and modern parenting. Each week, Julie and world-class experts dive into the pillars of a strong foundation: literacy, cognitive development, nutrition, and mental health. From leveraging AI to cultivating intellectual curiosity, we provide the tools you need to help your child thrive from Pre-K and beyond. Education is evolving. It's time our approach did, too. Let's build the future of our children, together.
