Find peace in the midst of the busy holiday season

Listen as we take a dive into encouragement and positivity and how to incorporate it into every day parenting.

Our host, Stephanie, gets candid about her family's experience during Hurricane Ian and how she used Anti Reactive Parenting to help her children through an emergency situation.

To raise a responsible adult, it takes intentionality.

We’ll discuss what shame is, how to help our children deal with it, and how to avoid bringing it into their lives unnecessarily.

Failure develops protective factors, including resiliency, confidence, and determination.

Consistency in parenting is an art.

We've all heard, "It takes a village," but what does this mean and how do we do this well?

Parenting is an intensely personal experience, but people LOVE to judge parents for how well (or not) they are doing it. We will discuss why people love to judge parents, as well as what you can do face judgement with confidence.

Life is tough. Raising kids in an Anti Reactive environment means addressing the tough stuff early and often. And in true Anti Reactive fashion, that means being intentional! In today’s crossover episode with LYFE Fatherhood we’ll go into what it means to intentionally address hard topics, whether your kids hear about it on the news, from another adult, or from other kids whose family or social situations bring them into more contact with these subjects.

Teaching children to be brave can feel like a balancing act between pushing kids outside of the comfort zone and keeping them safe at all times.

We communicate and send messages to our children all the time. Behind every message, there is a secret hidden message.

Listening to the little things is one way to transform a good parent/child relationship into a GREAT one.

Listen as we talk about how to discern between discipline that works and discipline that doesn't.

Children need boundaries without feeling stifled and freedom without feeling like they are free-falling.

Children are future adults. When do you start thinking about your children as adults and instilling those values for adulthood? You start now. You start early, you start often.

You are a parent that wants to get ahead of the game and not just play catch up as issues come up, hence the name, “Anti Reactive.” You are a good parent and I am excited to join you on the lifelong journey of being an Anti Reactive parent.

Value-based parenting can make things so much easier, from getting through your end of the day routine to deciding where your kids should go to school, I’m talking all decisions, big and small.
