Show Notes

An interview with Kathleen Tullie, CEO & Founder at Active Kids Active Minds.


If you are a concerned mom, it is just in your DNA, you will fight to the end to make sure that your child gets what they need. And nobody understands that until they're a mom. And so I think people just started to see that their kids, their kids that had social issues or academic issues or couldn't sleep, that all of a sudden, little Johnny or Jennifer could go run around on the playground, and they were calmer at school and their anxiety was less and their teacher was reporting they could focus on a problem. And we have really engineered physical activity out of our lifestyles. But our brain doesn't know that. And our body doesn't know that. So, I feel like it's going to have to be parents, caregivers, moms and dads that bring back physical activity to kids.
