Where do you even begin when talking to your kids about sex, relationships, identity, and faith?

In the very first episode of Parental Discretion, Georgia and Lauren share their own experiences of growing up with silence, shame, confusion, and fear surrounding conversations about sexuality. They explore why so many Christian parents feel unequipped to start these discussions and offer a reassuring message: it's not too late, and you don't need all the answers before you begin.

Together, they introduce the powerful concept of the "law of first exposure", exploring how a child's first experiences and conversations about sex, relationships, and identity can shape their understanding for years to come. Most importantly, they encourage parents and carers to become the first safe, trusted voice their children hear on these topics.

This episode is an invitation to move past fear, start the conversation, and build a foundation of trust, connection, and discipleship in your home.

• Why many Christian parents struggle with conversations about sex and relationships
• The impact of silence, shame, and fear
