In this fabulous episode, I talk to Justine about her life with her 3 kiddos. A long-term goal of hers has been to go to nursing school. She is finally doing it, and that transition is causing some stress in the family and among her 3 kids. They are finding it hard to get along. We talk about playful ways to lighten the mood and to get them to help out in this transition–actively participate in the transition instead of just suffering the results of mom having less time. Enjoy!

Mama ILeah and I have a great conversation about how to learn to use positive speech as a family, and positive reinforcement altogether, even taking it a step further by using visualization as a way to help with anxiety. Another awesome conversation!

After last week's episode, Nia and I got to talking and realized we had to record another episode. They live in Germany, and on the way to Ella's daycare, they saw a bunch of refugees standing in line from Ukraine. This sparked a lot of fear in Ella and the other kids at the daycare. Don't miss out on this important topic of dealing with fear!

In this episode, I had the pleasure of speaking with mama Nia about her 4.5-year-old daughter Ella who likes to lean into her dramas. We talk about the importance of eye contact and some fun exercises to do around learning to re-connect with each other when the connection is lost.

In this episode, I get to talk to Crystal, mama to 2-year-old Lila, about what to do when it's raining outside, and how to implement positive, fun, and happy transitions into the day instead of saying "no".

Another awesome conversation with mama Jen about her son Wyatt and how we can learn to be an "open hand" vs. a "closed fist", a really great metaphor for being in a happy and open disposition rather than closed off from love, happiness, and relations.

In this lively conversation, I get to speak to Ati about her daughter and the creative challenges she faces around screen time.

In this second episode of A Play On Parenting, I get to speak with Alina about how to help her 9-year-old daughter let go of fear by finding out what it actually means to live life based on E=MC² or everything is a form of energy or light. I offer some fun and interesting games and exercises to play and we talk about how to regain connection when it is temporarily lost.  For more information on what I offer at Everything New Academy, you can visit my website: www.everythingnewacademy.com

In this episode, I chat with Keith and Laura about helping their 9-year-old boy develop responsibility and learn how enjoyable it also feels to be calm once in a while. And of course, I offer a game or two for them to play together that will support this process!

This is my first episode, so I am just introducing myself and giving a little background as to why I am starting this podcast.
