Keep’em Healthy with Jami Podcast
I’m Jami—a Biology Professor, health coach, and a mom who’s spent way too many hours researching the 'why' behind our kids' health. When the standard medical advice didn't cut it for my own family, I took my knowledge of anatomy and physiology and went looking for real, integrative answers. On Keep'em Healthy, I’m sharing that classroom with you. We’re digging into the science of nutrition and lifestyle medicine to explore how our kids actually heal and grow. It’s high-level health education, served up like a chat with your girlfriend. You’ve got this, and I’m here to help.

Is AI Dimming Your Child’s Spark? How to Raise Critical Thinkers with Kate Brenton

Lately, it feels like we’re totally drowning in digital noise and AI-generated everything. Between the kids using chatbots for homework and us constantly fighting the "screen time battle," it’s easy to feel like that special "human spark" is just... dimming.
Today, I’m chatting with my friend Kate Brenton, a holistic educator who has spent twenty years igniting creativity from Hawaii to the boardroom. We’re diving into how we can help our kids (and ourselves!) stay grounded when the world feels so disconnected from reality.
Connect with Kate here and on her website.
We’re getting into the good stuff, like:
- The Efficiency Paradox: Is AI actually helping us, or is there a hidden cost to our creativity?
- Process over Results: How to teach our kids to love the process of thinking when they can get an answer in three seconds.
- Healthy Skeptics: Teaching our kids to question what they see online without becoming totally cynical.
- Data vs. Wisdom: Why "soft skills" like empathy, intuition, and tactile learning are actually the ultimate "hard" skills for the future.
It’s time to stop worrying if we've lost the battle to the screen and start building some boundaries that actually work. We need to trust our kids and give them the space to find their own flame. You don’t want to miss this one!
