Losing Your Audience Confessions of a Parent Coach

How well do you LISTEN to your child? You know that moment when you realize your kid is SO not listening to you? In fact, they are actively refusing to absorb a damn thing you say...fidgeting, rolling their eyes, or straight-up fighting you? My husband calls this “losing your audience.” You can talk all you want, but your words are falling on deaf ears.

In this week’s episode, I tell you:
♦ Why listening is the best way to keep your audience
♦ What to do when you lose your audience
♦ How we can lose our audience even if we are doing everything right

Here’s a weird truth: Kids usually stop listening when they stop feeling heard. We lose our audience because we have become terrible audiences ourselves!

How about you? Do you know when you’ve lost your audience? Can your communication skills stop you from losing them? Are you a good audience for your child?

The Words That Work Workshop will teach you good listening skills and so much more. If talking with your child leaves you thinking:

♦ Why won’t they listen?
♦ I just want them to understand!
♦ What’s going on in that head of theirs?
♦ I’m only trying to help!
♦ How can I get them to open up?
