Transcript: Bethany Braun-Silva:
Hi, and welcome back to another episode of The Breakdown with Bethany. My name is Bethany Braun-Silva, and today my guests are Callie Christensen and Kelly Oriard. They’re the co-founders and co-CEOs of Slumberkins, which is a children’s brand dedicated to helping parents support their children’s emotional learning.

I know this is just a minor speck in what I could possibly be doing to give back here, but I hope you enjoy the episode. I hope you take something away from it. And if you can please head over to Mom’s Demand Action or Everytown for Gun Safety to donate. Enough is enough.

Slumberkins is an emotional wellness brand for families that deliver therapeutic tools through the form of publishing and plush, and content, and try to just meet families where they are in their emotional development journey. And right now it shows up through our cute cuddly characters like Bigfoot that helps promote self-esteem, Yeti that promotes mindfulness. We have an alpaca for stress relief. All of the different characters are kind of mascots of these different emotional pillars.
Bethany Braun-Silva:
And what sort of like, how did you guys get started in this? Because it seems like so necessary. Right. But then what was...
