    Inspire ft. Adam Galinsky Ph.D.

    Leadership is built into parenthood. In today's episode I welcome Adam Galinsky, a renowned social psychologist and Columbia Business School professor. Adam is the author of the brand new book, Inspire: The Universal Path for Leading Yourself and Others. He has more than 300 scientific publications and a TED Talk viewed 7.5 million times. Although he may never have set out to speak to an audience of parents, Adam naturally made the connection between his research on leadership and his experience as a parent of two young boys. Inspire reveals the spectrum that we function on as parents and leaders--often landing somewhere between inspiring and infuriating.

    Simplifying Routines

    Many of us (myself included) strive to develop more effective and efficient routines. Sometimes, we fail to realize that we have more functional systems in place than we realize. Personally, I've set lofty goals for improving routines in cleaning, homework, exercise, the morning hustle, etc. Those systems generally fail. What I have found does work is to do what I call, "obstacle-identification-and-removal". I'm sharing a little about that and some examples of how it has been useful for my home.

    Language + Co-Regulation

    In this episode, I'm discussing two valuable principles in parenting: co-regulation and declarative language. I recently read two short books by the same author (Linda K. Murphy) with tools that have proven useful in both my own parenting and in my therapy practice.
