Episode 3
Meet Sarah Coyne, Professor at BYU's School of Family Life. Even though she's an academic, she's so fun to talk to! She studies the effects of media on families and parents from all sorts of fun angles. She's looked at the effects of princess culture (not so bad, it turns out). Currently, she's trying to understand body image in the LDS culture (which is influenced by media). She's not afraid to get real and talk about her own faith journey and parenting teens.
