Are you tired of yelling at your kids? Do you sometimes feel like they don’t listen or respect you? Do you feel like the worst parent EVER? You’re not alone, there is hope!
Join Lisa Smith -- Mom, Master Certified Parent Coach, Author and Speaker -- as she helps turn frustrated parents -- who regularly default to yelling, threatening and punishing -- into peaceful leaders within their households. As a former dominant parent, she has found the path to Peaceful Parenting and is dedicated to helping other parents find their way too!
But be warned, this is not a “foo-foo” podcast that’s going to tell you to let your kids do whatever they want without any rules or limitations. Each week Lisa will share the exact methods and step-by-step strategies she used to transform from an angry, controlling mom who was constantly upset with her son and husband, into a calm, confident, and connected leader in her home.

Parenting Without Punishment: Guiding Your Child
Today’s podcast is part two of my Stop Punishing, Start Guiding Series. We want our children to be able to create decisions from a calm, regulated state. When you set limits, it helps your child feel supported and also encourages the development of an internal compass.
We look further at guiding your child to make better decisions and I break down offering choices, redirection, repair, and recovery. We look closely as a real-life example to explore methods for honoring your child’s perspective while creating safe boundaries, so tune in to start guiding your child today.

Parenting Without Punishment: Setting Limits
Peaceful Parenting revolves around connection, not punishment. Punishment creates a power struggle that breaks trust and erodes relationships. Instead of promoting support, it emphasizes obedience. When we establish supportive systems, both we and our children can learn more effectively.
Setting limits is all about creating a calm framework that keeps our kids safe while sharing social skills, and teaching family values. Our children are bound to make mistakes, but with limits in place, we can establish clear boundaries while prioritizing their needs. Tune in to learn how to use this essential skill today.

Stop Punishing, Start Connecting
Research has shown that the more you resort to punishment, the less likely your child will want to cooperate. The only way we can encourage change in our children is by building trust.
I share how I discovered that threatening, dominating, commanding, and enforcing punishments are not the best way to communicate or make a change in my child. Tune in to move away from dominating and toward collaboration with your child today.

Customer Reviews
Great insights across ALL ages and stages!
Lisa Smith teaches the difference between snorkeling and scuba diving as we examine our children’s behaviors as well as our own. I leave every lesson feeling more empowered with practical strategies that enable connection and cooperation with my child all while working peacefully with discipline and respect in the home. I am more centered as a person and a parent since listening to Lisa’s podcasts and being a part of the weekly calls. Lisa is the real deal and emphasizes progress not perfection across all ages and stages of parenting!
Lisa and this podcast are Life Changing
I first found this podcast almost 3 years ago now and I am so grateful for Lisa, this podcast and the Hive. So much has changed in me and how I respond to my children and there is so much more acceptance in our home. Thank you Lisa!!
The parenting village I desperately needed
After several months of listening to the podcast and taking a free 3 day challenge I was completely hooked. Lisa spoke to my soul and gave the answers I’d been looking for. I jumped in a joined The Hive which ended up being the best decision. It feels comforting to be surrounded by other parents who are going through what I’m going through. I no longer feel alone, unheard or unprepared. I have the tools to get through tough moments and if I don’t have the tools I can get help in The Hive. Literally life changing. “Thank you” doesn’t feel enough…but THANK YOU Lisa!!
