Mailbox Monday with Kathy Koch - a podcast by Heidi St. John

As our kids get older, it feels like we have to choose between being their friend or being their authority, but maybe I don’t have to choose?  My friend Kathy has some thoughts about this, and is sharing how to parent our kids now, so we can be their friend later.



Dr. Kathy Koch (“cook”), the Founder and President of Celebrate Kids, Inc., based in Fort Worth, TX, has influenced thousands of parents, teachers, and children in 30 countries through keynote messages, seminars, chapels, and other events.


She is a featured speaker for the Great Homeschool Conventions and a regular presenter for Care Net, Summit Ministries, and other organizations. She speaks regularly at schools, churches, and pregnancy resource centers. She is also a popular guest on Focus on the Family radio and other radio talk-shows. Kirk Cameron chose her as the technology expert to interview in his 2018 movie, Connect: Real Help for Parenting Kids in a Social Media World. She has authored six books including Screens and Teens and 8 Great Smarts.


Dr. Kathy earned a Ph.D. in reading and educational psychology from Purdue


University. She was a tenured associate professor of education at the University of


Wisconsin-Green Bay, a teacher of second graders, a middle school coach, and a


school board member before becoming a full-time conference and keynote speaker in


1991. She has loved Jesus for years and her faith and desire to serve and glorify God is


the foundation of her ministry.
