Blog Dec 16

What a year it has been! In 2022, Watersedge celebrated 10 years online. All up we have published more than 500 blogs on everything from raising kids to navigating marriage difficulties. So how did we wrap up this year? In 2022, our most popular blogs were about developing children’s Emotional Intelligence, creating healthy family relationships, and taking care of your mental health. Add in some blogs about TV and books that highlighted mental health and therapy, and it has been a solid year. Here were your top 10 blogs for 2022.
