We communicate and send messages to our children all the time. Behind every message, there is a secret hidden message. These secret, hidden messages are called “meta messages,” and these are the messages that transcend the literal message you are sending to your child. Meta messages are powerful and can cut us to the core or make our hearts sing. Listen as we discuss the impact of these secret messages and how to make sure we're sending the right ones.
Anti Reactive Parenting Challenge: Identify some of the meta messages communicated in the world around you. Pick one meta message you want to communicate to your child and work hard to ensure this message shines through your words and your actions.

Listen as we talk about how to discern between discipline that works and discipline that doesn't, and learn some strategies on how to deal with the big mess-ups and the everyday issues that make you feel like a broken record.
Children need boundaries without feeling stifled and freedom without feeling like they are free-falling. Let's discuss how to give our kids autonomy, opportunities to make mistakes, experience consequences, and above all, feel secure.
Children are future adults. That’s the whole goal of parenting, right? We pour into our children so they can one day fly on their own. We all want to see our children grow and be prepared to join the real world. As much as I wish there was a switch we could just flip when it’s officially time for our kids to strike out on their own that would make them fully ready, there’s not. But we are gifted with 18 years to get them prepared.
You are a parent that wants to get ahead of the game and not just play catch up as issues come up, hence the name, “Anti Reactive.” You are a good parent and I am excited to join you on the lifelong journey of being an Anti Reactive parent.
Value-based parenting can make things so much easier, from getting through your end of the day routine to deciding where your kids should go to school, I’m talking all decisions, big and small.
