<\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Parenting is hard. Talking about the world with your kids? Even harder. Raising Us, hosted by Elise Hu, is a podcast created just for grownups who want help talking to their kids about what\u2019s happening in the world today.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A Kids Co., the acclaimed media company and creator of the bestselling A Kids Book About series, is proud to announce its official launch into the parenting space with the debut of its flagship parenting podcast for grown-ups. Raising Us, hosted by Elise Hu, journalist, author and podcast host best known for hosting TED Talks Daily and Forever 35, is set to launch on September 9, 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Building on its mission to empower kids through honest, accessible storytelling, A Kids Co. is now turning its lens toward the adults raising them. The show aims to help grown-ups navigate the real-world questions kids are already asking like \u201cWhy are some people treated unfairly because of their skin color?\u201d, \u201cWhy is my body starting to feel weird?\u201d, and \u201cWhy do we have to follow laws if we didn\u2019t choose them?\u201d. Raising Us follows the rhythms of the school year with episodes timed to seasonal moments, historic anniversaries, and current events. The show blends expert-backed insights with real, lived experiences featuring trusted doctors, educators and purpose-driven public figures who bring meaningful stories and perspectives to every episode.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Founder and author of A Kids Book About Racism, Jelani Memory said, \u201cFrom day one, our mission has been rooted in trust, trusting kids to ask big questions, and trusting grownups to show up with real answers. That\u2019s what Raising Us is all about.\u201d Alongside the show, A Kids Co. will offer curated reading lists from its bestselling A Kids Book About series, downloadable Conversation Starter Kits, and other family-friendly tools to help listeners turn every episode into action at home.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Raising Us launches September 9, 2025, with its first episode on fatphobia and body image featuring model and activist Tess Holliday and journalist Virginia Sole-Smith. Upcoming episodes will explore timely, complex topics like neurodiversity, puberty, and democracy, with guests including actor and author Lake Bell, pediatrician and advocate Dr. Cara Natterson, and educator and author Sharon McMahon. You\u2019ll also hear from other voices like W. Kamau Bell, Negin Farsad, Baratunde Thurston and Jason Reynolds. Raising Us gives grown-ups the tools to learn, reflect, and then lead meaningful conversations with kids. Because understanding the world is the first step to helping kids make sense of it, too. As Elise Hu puts it, \u201cEvery time we show up for our children, we\u2019re not just raising thoughtful kids, we\u2019re raising us too.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This season of Raising Us is proudly sponsored by Nugget, the beloved kids\u2019 play furniture brand known for sparking creativity and imaginative play. As a company committed to growing imaginations, Nugget shares A Kids Co.\u2019s mission to support grown-ups in raising empowered, curious kids.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Watch or listen to Raising Us from A Kids Co. wherever you get your podcasts starting September 9, 2025.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u00a0 \u00a0 Parenting is hard.
