Between Parents

Are you ever tempted to control your kids? Perhaps you’re merely tempted to drift into the world of “over-managing” them. Whatever the case, in this episode we give you a word picture WE LOVE that can help you stop the control madness! Talk About This: We encourage you to talk to your spouse and extended friends and family about the idea of being a Gardener or an Architect. Work to bring that language into your conversations. Then identify how your mindset reflects Gardner ideas or Architect ideas. How is this mindset helping or hurting? NEXT consider what behaviors need to change BECAUSE of this mindset. Finally, discuss where you feel most pressure to grow at home- curiosity/patience? Improving environments? Or purging worry?  Related Links: Episode #65 – Balancing Freedom & Responsibility Episode #114 – How to Worry Less About Your Kids Neil Gaiman on the Tim Ferris Podcast Also remember: Want to reach us?
