We also discuss a few myths along the way about hormones impacting desire, what arousal non concordance is and the surprising truth about spontaneous desire.

In a landmark study, self-control has been found to be one of the greatest predictors of success. In this podcast Karen and I will discuss why it's so important, ways to strengthen this vital skill in children and how to acknowledge and develop our own as parents.

Self-control is a vital skill that is instrumental in helping our children develop into healthy, happy adults. It's a learnt skill - nobody was ever born knowing how to manage big feelings and delay immediate wants in favour of a longer term goal.

However, parents have enormous power to proved children with the experiences that will build this vital skill. This podcast will explore some of the powerful ways; parents can help build self-control, emotional regulation and resilience in their children for life.

We will look at the importance of relationship in nurturing self-control, and how parent can strengthen their connection and influence with their children for their childhood and beyond.

Until you invest the time, energy and desire to put each other first, you won't have much of a relationship when the kids are older. Happy couples are the ones who enjoy their time together and playing creatively at life. They have a sense of having each others back, are affectionate and have a strong sense of who they are within themselves and the relationship.

 But what does it take to get you to this relationship nirvana?

Communication issues is one of the most cited reasons couples seek counselling. At it's core, communication is a way of connecting with your partner to understand their inner world and how they view the outer world. Having great communication skills requires an active stance.
