God is just so amazing— for those of you that are in my everyday you know things have been an absolute whirlwind recently.

I have been taking extra prayer time to ask God to use me in the best way possible. Tonight as I pray over my family and the families I serve, God just pushed me to enjoy the moment with my family

God pressed it on my heart to take each moment in. Even if it’s not one anybody else besides me gets to experience.

It’s also a living breathing example that God answers prayer. I got so lucky meeting Haley. So many sleepless nights, wanting to start a family, but not finding the right person. Everyday since meeting her, I get to see why she is made for me. It’s just amazing to have the opportunity to create a family with her

I have the absolute best team by my side. Forever grateful, forever blessed

This will change your kiddos life…

You can’t build relationships without conversation! 🙃

Building a relationship with your kid can be tough…

…and the questions you’re asking can be making it even tougher😲

With the wiring type of questions what ends up happening is that the child

Gives minimal responses,
Ignores you
Avoids the conversation

Or

With the right type of questions what happens then 🧐

The kiddo is super engaged, and you start to build your relationship everyday

Boom 💥 Just like that!

AND the crazy thing is as parents we don’t always realize how this can affect the kiddos😬

If you wanna learn a how to strengthen your relationship with your kiddo, comment”💪”

Why your child to slams the door when they’re mad

1 - They are expressing anger inappropriately.

Slamming the door is gratifying! It feels good to hear the output of your energy.

Maybe they are just angry/upset and don’t “mean” to.

When you are super charged up (escalated), You don’t realize how your actions are affecting others

Either way it’s inappropriate to slam doors and we need to shape it

2- They are looking for attention.

Yes! Sounds cRaZy that your child might want to get under your skin, have some kind of reaction, or get your attention in any way

So your yelling..... It aint working!

Its actually gonna make them keep slamming the door....

Cuz negative attention is still attention

If we give it minimal attention they will be less likely to continue to do it as well.

Sounds backwards. Just trust me on that hahahaha

If your child does not listen to you’re missing the secret sauce

Think about the last time you were at the park.

You say, “Okay Buddy it’s time to go.”
 
What do they do? 🤔 
Do they beg for five more minutes?😠
... ignore you and keep playing?😡
... scream and run away? 🤬

Then what happens? You are visibly embarrassed and frantically trying to get control over your child. 🫣

Now you’re late, embarrassed, & frustrated.😵‍💫

I see this happen all the time.

The worst part of the whole situation, is that the kid is a good kid that WANTS to listen. The kid WANTS to make you happy.

The secret sauce is to give the child motivation…🤩

…With the right communication, a set system and some fine tuning (it’s an art, not just a science)😂

We teach this exact process to all of our parents so they can motivate their child appropriately to listen to them.

Want to learn more about it?

Message me “MOTIVATION” and let’s talk about it.

Why do kids talk back to their parents?

Can I ask you a honest question?

Are you confused on how to react when your kiddo back talks?

(or if they are just plain defiant...)

If so, there’s 2 main reasons that happens to most parents.

The first is that there is no real structure.

I’ve worked with many parents, and at the beggining they realize they aren’t aware of how to respond in these situations. Most importantly, they don’t know where to start.

There’s a mindset and strategy to creating that structure, and once you understand how to do it properly there’s no going back.

The second is that the parents are not aware of the functions of behavior.

Because of they don’t know how to categorize the behavior, it is difficult to appropriate shape the behavior.

Parents react in one way, and it’s actually REINFORCING the behavior, MAKING IT MORE LIKELY TO HAPPEN.

But I’ve found that with the right basic knowledge and know how, it becomes a lot easier to extinguish (take away) the Maladaptive behaviors like talking back.

If you learn these skills to get your kiddo from a 3/10 to a 6/10 or from a 6/10 to a 9/10..

Then you have the ability to change your entire family life.

So if this sounds like you..

I created a free step-by-step training on how to learn these skills and create the family dynamics you always wanted.

Why Parents DON’T NEED to Yell at Their Kids

Many parents have said to me that they NEED to yell at their child for them to listen to them..

But that’s the FURTHEST thing from the truth 👇

Most parents just need ..

✅ Motivate their kiddos
✅ Properly give prompts
✅ Have a gameplay for when things don’t go to plan

Having an actual game plan is all you need!

(just ask most of my previous clients 😂)

Why is this true?

Because the tone of voice is NOT actually motivating.🧐

Your teaching your child how to communicate poorly  At some point your child won’t care how hard you yell at them. Then What happens?

So once you create a gameplay, and know how to appropriately prompt your kiddos..

Your kiddo will listen to you the first time you ask them something..

And you will never need to yell again

Want me to help you create the game plan for you?

Are tomatoes the only veggies your kids eat? (If you count ketchup or pizza😂😂)

Let me guess

You put something green in your kiddos dish and they…
Make faces
Gag
Refuse
Argue
Negotiate
Etc.

Its just exhausting every night with this fight

Maybe you are deep in the journey by this point and realizing that without the nutrients, your kiddo is either noticeably under developed with their muscle or are gaining weight in an unhealthy way

There are a few easy ways to get your kid the nutrients they need.

When you learn how to do that with techniques like the above, and know how to manage the possible refusal, your child can thrive

If you want to see a behavior repeat, what do you do?

How are you going to get your kids to keep it up?

What’s motivating Billy to…
Take out the trash?
Do their homework?
Make his bed?

Sometimes the kiddos gonna get it right.

They’re gonna…
do something cool
Listen the first time they’re asked
Do something without being asked
Try something new
Be nice to a sibling
Etc

Our immediate response is going to tell the child to keep doing this, or not to do it ever again.

When we learn the power of a positive reinforcement and learn how/when to give them, the power of reinforcements is tremendous

4 ways to build your self-esteem:

1. Pointing out strengths. 💪

What are they good at? Give them
verbal praise and point it out!

Verbal praise expedites the process. It helps the child start to focus on the positive or look
for the positive more often.

It also helps build relationship between you and your child. This is going to increase their confidence, self worth and self esteem.

2. Set realistic goals. 🙌

When your child achieves their goals, it will help them feel good about themself and their abilities.

It is important to set goals that are achievable, otherwise it may have the adverse effect.

I also like to do short term qoals first to get a couple of really easy quick wins!!🏆

3. Go have some fun! 🤗

Doing more things that make the child feel good will boost their self-esteem over time.

This could include spending time with loved ones, doing activities they enjoy, etc. 🥰

This would also be a good way to temporarily get
their mind off of what has been bringing them down.

4. Reframe their negative thoughts. 🖼

Start by challenging their negative thoughts.

When they have negative thoughts about themself, challenge them. Ask them if they are really true and if there is another way to look at the situation. 🙃

Help them flip their negative thoughts to be more positive

Building self-esteem takes time and effort, but it is worth it.🙌

⭐️When your child has high self-esteem, they will feel better about themself and their abilities.

⭐️They will also be more likely to achieve their goals and live a fulfilling life.

⭐️What are your favorite ways to build self-esteem?

Change you child’s behavior now!

Waiting for change is having a HUGE impact on your child

Are you making this mistake 👇

You want your child’s behavior to change…  They say it will

.. then goes a day

A week

A month

…..no change

Or maybe your kid doesn’t even accept that they need to change

But you sit there

Everyday you wait thinking that this behavior will change, they’ll grow out of it …

… what is happening here ?

This is a common mistake parents make that hurts themselves and their children

Most parents think that it will just be better one day, or they try things that just simply don’t work

And over time, there’s no change 
The child continues to do their behavior because they believe it’s working for them .

Worse than that..

You’re stuck in this terrible feeling

My advice?

TAKE ACTION MAKE CHANGE!!

I talk to my clients all the time about how you can create a change, we just need you to be committed.

Are you worried about your child’s mental
health?

Low self-esteem can lead to anxiety, depression, and
other mental health problems.

Think about it:

Imagine constantly hearing someone tell you,
“You aren’t good enough.”
“You can’t do anything right.”
“You aren’t pretty enough.”
“You aren’t smart enough.”

Now come to the realization that it’s your voice.

Constant circulations of these negative thoughts going over and over and over.

Sure others may have started some of these thoughts, but now they’re stuck to you.

Then what happens?

You’re falling into a pit of lower and lower self esteem.

I see this happen all the time. Parents now more than ever are
asking me how to build their child’s self esteem

The worst part of the whole situation, is that the kid WANTS to
stop these feelings and thought.

The kid WANTS to be happy.

The secret sauce is to know where the little opportunities are to help build their self esteem from the ground up.

With the right exercises, verbal praise, a set system and some
fine tuning (it’s an art, not just a science)

We teach this exact process to our parents so they can help
their child build up their self esteem.

The worst part of the whole situation, is that the kid WANTS to
stop these feelings and thought.

The kid WANTS to be happy.

The secret sauce is to know where the little opportunities are to help build their self esteem from the ground up.

With the right exercises, verbal praise, a set system and some
fine tuning (it’s an art, not just a science)

We teach this exact process to our parents so they can help
their child build up their self esteem.

Want to learn more about it?

Message me “SELF ESTEEM” and let’s talk about it.

We’re launching a December 20K Case Study 👇

Giving suggestions never works out! 🙃

A suggestion is a choice…

…that means it’s optional😲

So what ends up happening is that you give the child a suggestion, thinking they’ll be smart enough to make the right choice. 😂

…and sometimes they don’t🤗

Or

You give the child the choice to something that isn’t optional…

But what happens then? 🧐

The choice you just gave the kiddo is taken away. Boom 💥 Just like that!

Now what’s that teaching the kiddo:
-their voice doesn’t matter
-they’re always wrong
-they’re not x enough

AND the crazy thing is as parents we don’t always realize how this can affect the kiddos😬

So what do we do?

When you need something done, just prompt them. Don’t ask; don’t suggest.😊

If you really don’t care what the child chooses, give them the suggestion

There’s a time for choices. Just make sure they’re don’t the right way.🤗

Thoughts?

Thoughts?

Have you ever wondered if your hurting your kiddo when you are trying to help them 😬  

As parents, helping in some cases actually has the adverse affect.😳  

Here’s what happens:  

Maybe you just want to help, so you do the task for them
 …Maybe you’ve just “always done it” for the child,
 ……Maybe you just “don’t want to let it go”

I totally get it!🤗  

In reality, what is happening?  
-You’re robbing your child of learning a skill
-You’re robbing your child of opportunities to build self-esteem  
-and you’re creating an unhealthy dependence 

 In the future, your kiddo will be less likely to try new things and they will look for you to do it for them.

They will also have a really tough time managing failure

 All your energy is going towards unnecessary things; so when there’s an actual opportunity to have fun, you may be too tired to be fully there for them.   

Your heart might be in the right place, but you’re actually hurting your child.

Worst of all, you know your kiddo is not really hitting their potential and are hoping their behavior at home doesn’t bleed into school, sports, or other areas of life. 

 By promoting independence, we are actually helping our kid in so many ways!

So what areas are you going to promote independence in this week?

The main reason your child does not listen to you:

Think about the last time you were at the park. 🤔

You say, "Okay Buddy it's time to go."

What do they do?

Do they beg for five more minutes? 😠
…ignore you and keep playing?😡
……. scream and run away? 🤬

Then what happens? 🫣

You are visibly embarrassed and
frantically trying to get control over your child. 😫

Now you're late, embarrassed, & frustrated. 😖

I see this happen all the time.

The worst part of the whole situation, is that the kid is a good
kid that WANTS to listen.🥺

The kid WANTS to make you happy.😕

The secret sauce is to give the child motivation.

With the right communication, a set system and some fine
tuning (it's an art, not just a science) 😂

We teach this exact process to all of our parents so they can motivate their child appropriately to listen to them.

What’s something that you do or your parents did for your that seemed small, but had a big impact?

What’s something that you do or your parents did for your that seemed small, but had a big impact?

Heres what happens to most parents that are looking to spend more time with their child.

You have some time open in your schedule.🤩

You try to get your child to do something with you.

The child wants to do something else or is busy.😕

From here parents either do one of two things

1 - force the child to hang out

Which in turn leads to push back, yelling, etc. Typically it’s just a miserable time when you are trying to have fun 😔

or

2 - they say the child never wants to hang out with them.

They give up and that’s it😣

Either way NOBODY IS HAPPY! 🥺

It becomes a lose lose!

I see this happen all the time.

The parent doesn’t know how to strengthen, rebuild or even create a relationship with their child.

The worst part of the whole situation, is that the kid WANTS the relationship too.

The secret is knowing how to turn those windows of time into fruitful moments🤩

With the right game plan, some practice, and some microadjustments!🥳

We teach this process to all of our parents so that they can the relationship they always wanted with their kiddos!

4 of the Most Common Mistakes Parents Make When Building A Relationship with Their Kiddo

1. Forcing your child to do something & spending time with someone ⏰  Everything should be an option here  Think about it…   How many things would have been more fun if you weren’t forced to do it?🙊  So why are we going to force the kiddo to have fun with us?🙈 
It’s going to give you the adverse effect. They’ll more times than not drag their feet and make a super enjoyable thing misreable.🥵  PRESENT IT AS AN OPTION

2. Offering them something that is not actually fun. 🫣  I am a huge Board Game Nerd! I love chess👑  My wife….. HATES IT😂

When I’m trying to have fun and build my relationship with my wife, if I insist we play chess, what will happen???  At best, I’m looking at a game that is played half heartedly, we are both bored and it’s just a waste of time. 🫣

Instead, I should offer something I know she likes to do, too.   This way we are both having fun!!🥳

3. Making the activity way too long  A three hour commitment is a COMMITMENT🥱

Even one hour— it can be LOOOONNNNNGG😫

Let’s start off with a smaller goal.   I’ve had people start as low as 5 minutes. 🙃  4. Don’t stop trying  It’s not too late!!🥹  You can do this!!  **cue the Rocky Music** 😂  But seriously! At some point they will say yes, and then you can start building!!  ___________________________________

boom 💥💥 
Have you done any of these?  Whatchya think??

My best friend, my partner in crime, my wife

Beautiful morning!! Big wins over here😊

This family had consistently tough mornings. 😬

The son DID NOT want to go to school

Every it would be a fight, tooth and nail to get the son to school😤

This was wearing on the mom and sons relationship💔
The son was always late⏰
The mornings were filled with yelling on both sides and many more struggles🤬

After two months of creating the game plans and consistent follow through, this is the text I get. 🙃

So happy for this family for putting in the hard work.

If mornings are tough for you, dm me or comment “morning” and let’s talk.
