  1. Verbal Reminders are a Simple way to Correct your Child (#111)

    Verbal Reminders are a Simple way to Correct your Child (#111)

    In this episode, I talk about a simple way to correct your child without overreacting or letting things slide. I explain how small, consistent verbal reminders act like course corrections, helping children adjust their behaviour before it becomes a habit. This matters because what we allow becomes normal in our homes, and small choices shape long-term character in our child's life.   In This Episode Why behaviours that seem to appear "suddenly" have usually developed gradually How what we accept becomes our child's norm The difference between correction and punishment The idea of correction as a course correction, not a big reaction How children learn something from every response we give Practical examples of simple verbal reminders Heart-Focused Parenting Action Step Over the next 24 hours, choose one behaviour you've been overlooking and prepare a simple verbal reminder you will consistently use to help your child adjust and practise doing what is right.   Read the blog here:  Verbal Reminders are a Simple way to Correct your Child   Continue the conversation If this episode resonated with you, you're welcome to join my weekly Heart Booster emails - regular encouragements for parents who want to be intentional, relational and heart-focused.     If you'd like personal support applying these ideas in your own family, you can learn more about one-on-one coaching here.  Parent Coaching   You can also find me on Instagram, where I share something most days.  Instagram.

    How to Prepare for Family Travel With These 4 Virtues (#107)

    In this episode of Heart-Focused Parenting, I share how family travel offers the perfect opportunity to grow character in our kids (and of course, ourselves as well!) Drawing from our recent trip to France, I started to think of four key virtues that make travelling with children easier: patience, flexibility, self-control, and responsibility. With practical examples and heart-focused ideas, I encourage parents to start teaching and practising these traits at home before the suitcases come out, helping kids respond wisely to new situations, changes, and challenges while keeping relationships strong both at home and out and about.

    Christian Parents are you focused on Correction or Introducing Jesus? (#106)

    Parenting can so easily become all about behaviour.  We hear ourselves all day saying things like - 'Stop that, do this, don't forget.' But as Christian parents, we want our kids to know God personally, not just know the rules. So in this episode, I want to talk about how we can use those everyday moments when our kids need correction to disciple their hearts because we want our kids to know God's love not just obey His rules.

    Teaching Kids to Pray Out Loud: Practical Tips for Parents (#104)

    Praying out loud doesn't come naturally to every child — but it's a skill that can be learned in a safe, loving environment. In this episode, I share practical, age-appropriate strategies to help your kids grow comfortable talking to God in their own words. From modeling everyday prayer, to using the A-C-T-S framework, to preparing them with conversation starters, you'll learn how to guide them in both group and one-on-one settings. More than just words, it's about building their confidence in prayer and deepening their relationship with their Heavenly Father.
