The Power of Noticing + Shining a Light on Strengths: How Positive Attention Builds Cooperation (Podcast Episode 11)
Share
In today’s episode, we dive into the transformative power of focusing on the positive actions our kids take, rather than always highlighting what they get wrong. Parenting can often feel like an endless cycle of correction, but what happens when we start noticing and celebrating the good? From the small gestures of kindness to big moments of growth, we explore how highlighting what's right can improve your relationship with your children, boost their self-esteem, and foster a more supportive family environment.
