Family Throughlines: Discover Your Timeless Compass for Parenting in an Uncharted World

By Michael Whitaker

Our old parenting maps are obsolete.

From the explosion of AI to the silent trauma of school lockdowns, the world our kids navigate is nearly unrecognizable from our childhoods. But while the terrain has changed, your role hasn't. You don't need to be an expert on every modern challenge to guide your family.

You simply need a way to bring the best of what you already know into the hardest conversations nobody ever prepared you to have.

In Family Throughlines, strategist and parent Michael Whitaker offers a ruthlessly practical guide to discover what is right and true for your family. Moving beyond one-size-fits-all scripts, he helps you surface and articulate your Family Throughlines-the connective threads that hold your parenting together in ways your kids can understand:

Proven Plays: Your repeatable moves that calm the stormCore Principles: How you solve together when the path gets steepTimeless Lessons: Parenting wisdom your kids will carry forwardCredibility Actions: Visible steps that prove you mean what you say

Move beyond reactive, one-off conversations. Intentionally establish conversation non-negotiables and build a resilient compass your children can rely on to navigate the future long after they have left your side.

It's time to discover your Family's Throughlines.
