Honoring Traditions, Family Values, and Intentional Parenting with Sal Di Stefano
Episode 8
Sal Di Stefano, co-host of the wildly popular podcast Mind Pump, is joining me today on the show. Although Sal has an incredibly vast amount of knowledge and experience in the fitness industry, this conversation takes another direction. Sal and I share being first-generation Italians, coming from a culture steeped in family tradition and values. In this episode, we focus on the blending of traditional Italian culture with more modern times. There is a lot to be gained from maintaining values that have been passed down, as well as repatterning generational cycles that no longer have a place today.
Sal and I discuss:
- Challenging vs. maintaining traditional family roles
- The pros and cons of cultural standards
- Creating intentionality around the art of food
- Connection and healing through generational gaps
- Finding empathy for others’ experiences
- What it means to be present as a parent
