Going Deeper episodes will be less structured with a more conversational tone. These conversations will focus on interesting people I've come across that share similar values, perspectives and intentions expressed on the Minimalist Moms Podcast.
Today, Iâm thrilled to be joined by Mike Schroder, the founder of Future Fansâa brand focused on helping kids connect with and enjoy sports. Mikeâs journey started with a simple goal: he wanted to bond with his kids over sports but found that teaching them about football wasnât as easy as heâd hoped. So, he created Future Fans to make learning about sports fun and engaging for kids. In our conversation, Mike opens up about the ups and downs of that journey, the power of intentional parenting, and how sports can bring families closer together. Plus, he shares the unique way Future Fans makes sports education accessible and enjoyable for young learners.

Have you ever wondered how to bridge the gap between moms and daughters during those challenging teenage years? In today's episode, we're diving deep into that very question with mother-daughter duo, Sandra and Allie Stanley. They've just released their new book, Meet Me in the Middle, which tackles the tough yet vital conversations about life, faith, and the rollercoaster of teenage emotions. Together, they explore how to navigate topics like comparison, relationships, fears, and identity formation, all while emphasizing the importance of a strong family foundation. We'll also touch on the impact of social media, the power of journaling, and practical tips for fostering meaningful connections. Whether you're a mom, a daughter, or someone invested in nurturing these relationships, this conversation is packed with insights and advice you won't want to miss.
