In this episode of The Gentle Year, Kimberly Lechnick joins Knikki Hernandez to talk about one of the hardest lessons in parenting: letting go. From quitting baseball to giving up swimming, Kimberly shares how she learned to stop controlling her sons’ paths and start guiding them with trust, empathy, and space.
This isn’t a sugarcoated conversation about “doing it all.” It’s an honest look at the grief, confusion, and quiet pride that come with raising kids who choose their own way. Together, Nikki and Kimberly unpack the tension between control and connection, discipline and freedom, and how faith and awareness transform the way we love.
