Building motivation, stress tolerance, and a happy home The Dad Mindset Show

If I could show you how to:
* Help your children think and act independently
* Build better resilience in them, and
* Improve your relationship with them.
How much would that be worth to you?
Well, I might not be able to do the above, but this week’s podcast guest can.
Ned Johnson (who co-authored the fantastic book, The Self-Driven Child, with William Stixrud) and I discuss what we as parents can do to achieve all of the above list.
It’s a fun conversation and has given me a new lens to view parenting through as well as some really actionable approaches.
“I love you too much to fight with you about your homework but is there a way I can help”
If you’d like to find out more about Ned and read his books visit his website here.
You can also find Ned on Instagram here and here is a link to the viral TikTok post that he mentioned.
On his website, Ned has listed out insights from the Self-Driven Child. Here are just a few:
* Say “It’s your call’ whenever you can
* Foster a sense of control in your child
* Be a non-anxious presence in your family
* Be a consultant
* Encourage flow
* Take the long view
I believe, and hope, this episode will really help your family build motivation, stress tolerance, and above all, a happy home.
