From Near‑Death Purpose to Stories That Heal With Kim Kleidon

In this episode of Our Future is Kind Podcast, Kim and host Michael G. Neece dive into the importance of teaching children how to think—not just what to think—questioning information in a digital world, preserving creativity, and fostering deep human connection. Kim Kleidon is an Australian broadcaster‑turned‑storyteller whose deep commitment to family, human connection, and values‑based education has shaped her life's work. After decades in media and education, Kim now writes early childhood storybooks and hosts the podcast What We Teach Our Children, exploring how curiosity, creativity, and mindful storytelling help nurture resilient, emotionally intelligent, and empowered young people. Her own near‑death experience transformed her outlook and ignited a mission to help children and adults alike feel less alone.   Kindness challenge: Teach With Curiosity, Not Assumption Stay Inspired: Surround Yourself With Values‑Aligned Voices   📬 How to Contact & Connect With Kim Kleidon Website & Podcast: 🌐 https://kimkleidon.com  🎧 What We Teach Our Children Podcast — https://open.spotify.com/show/1GiYzUmsXtRDquDuoMUklw Spotify   Please visit our website to get more information: http://ourfutureiskind.com/ Michael G.
