Behind The Scenes Bulletin - On Questions to Ask Tweens + Teens

This award winning family-friendly show inspires tweens and early teens to examine social norms and ordinary everyday things. Everything from happiness, being a tween, chores, school, Race, toys, & more.

In 15-20 minute episodes she reviews other family focused podcasts with frequent guest appearances from hosts of these shows. Seraphina Speaks is listened to globally across schools, by children, and within families as conversation starters.
