Why Taking Care Of YOU Is The Most Important Part Of The Parenting Process

Similar to the beginning of martial arts training, the development of the self establishes a firm foundation from which to grow. Kathy Sacoulas discusses the martial arts journey and how the foundation of great martial arts training begins with focusing on the self first.
