Raising Greener Teens is a part of the EcoParent Podcast Network: <a href="https://www.ecoparent.ca/podcasts" rel="noopener">https://www.ecoparent.ca/podcasts</a> <br /><br />I’m your host Manda Aufochs Gillespie and this is the Raising Greener Teens podcast. Where we as parents take all the curiosity, self-empowerment, and other parenting tools that got us this far and apply them to understanding our teenagers better and hopefully shepherd them to becoming curious, self-empowered, caring and courageous citizens of the future. On Today’s episode I interview author, podcast host, and Fertility educator Lisa Hendrickson Jack about all things fertility and your teen. And we ask: What is your teen not learning in sex ed?<br /><br />About the Episode:<br />What does the everyday environmentalist think about what it takes these days to raise teenagers to be the future citizens the world needs.
