Transcription: 
So my golden nugget of parenting advice is to role model what you want your children to become. So think about what the most important thing is to you and role model that for your children. Don't nag them, don't push them. Just do it quietly, because at the end of the day, they're only going to do what they see you doing. So for me, it's health and fitness. So instead of telling my kids what to eat, I'm living it for them. I'm going to be feeding them healthy food, and I know a lot of children whose moms feed their kids healthy food, but they eat junk food and they eat stuff that they don't want their kids to eat. Well, when their kids leave the house, guess what they're going to do? Are they going to do what you tell them or are they going to do what you've role modeled for them? So do what you want them to do. Role model for your children.
