We are so thrilled to have Donna Tetreault back on our podcast. This last year has been a rollercoaster ride of emotions, and Donna will be sharing her resources, tips, and tricks for parents to help their children in identifying and moving past what they’ve been feeling. 

Donna Tetreault currently hosts the podcast ‘Kids Under Construction.’ Her parenting book by the same name is coming out in fall 2021! Donna is an author at Familius Workman.

Donna has been a TV reporter for more than 15 years in Los Angeles. She is also an educator and writer. Donna's unique experience has taken her career in several different directions.

Dear Me: Letters to Myself for All of My Emotions is Donna’s picture book that will be published in February 2021.
