About

A dad (Noah) & daughter (Eden) have been sitting on her bed for a weekly chat since 2020 when she was only 5 years old. Eden is now 11, and these conversations are meant to entertain audiences of all ages, but most importantly to build confidence in young children learning how to actively listen & communicate effectively. The Follow Up stems from a simple concept: ask questions, listen to the answers, then follow up.
