So, I thought who better to talk about it than Registered Child Psychologist, Dr Vanessa Lapointe? Episode 92 with Dr Vanessa on parenting is one of our most popular episodes, so I know you will get so much out of this interview as we talk about:

  • Types of mental health issues facing our children today
  • How to effectively start conversations with our kids
  • Serious issues like self harm / cutting

and much more. If you would like to pick up some gems on how to parent in today's world you have come to the right place!

    Jacqueline De'Ath is the founder of Homeworks Etc. DIY, and she helps people create their own home decor through popular workshops, as well as retailing it in her workshop/store. She has been in business since 2007.

Let me say that the first book I read while in stroke recovery, and a book that changed my life, is "Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less" by New York Times Best-Selling author, Greg McKeown.

    So when Greg agreed to be on the podcast, it was a dream come true for me and my husband Ron, so for the first time Ron sat in on the interview.

    I am so proud of so many of the episodes on this podcast, but I believe this one has one of the best chances to change so many lives for the better. It. Is. A. Must. Listen.

    From the book jacket of Essentialism:

    Have you ever found yourself stretched too thin? Do you sometimes feel overworked and underutilized? Do you feel motion sickness instead of momentum? Does your day sometimes get hijacked by someone else’s agenda? Have you ever said “yes” simply to please and then resented it?

    If you answered yes to any of these, the way out is the Way of the Essentialist.

    I believe this describes most of the adult population in our society, including probably you and me! But there is a way out from the overwhelm and into meaningful productivity, and it is not as complicated or difficult as you may think.

    Please listen to this podcast episode as many times as necessary to start applying the message.

    Well, my 2 guests have been doing so successfully for over a decade (almost 30 years between them), so let's listen to them!

    Jacqueline De'Ath is the founder of Homeworks Etc. DIY, and she helps people create their own home decor through popular workshops, as well as retailing it in her workshop/store. She has been in business since 2007.

    Dana Shortt founded Dana Shortt Gourmet in 2004. She moved from catering into a retail location that provides delicious foods for entertaining, and prepared meals.

    In this episode, I interview Marci Fair (www.marcifair.com), mom of 4, founder of www.kares4kids.com, and author of "TILT - 7 Solutions to be a Guilt-Free Working Mom"

    We talk about 3 of the 7 solutions, including:

    • Dreams and Goals - you don't have to give up on your own to help your children pursue theirs

    • Choices - including the "dirty gym shorts rule"

    • Roots and Wings - what do you think about this - "The less we do for our kids, the more we help them develop!"

    If you struggle with working mom guilt and want real-life parenting tips - read TILT!

My. Goodness. I have been searching all my life for a parenting expert who is at the same time a practicing Registered Psychologist, and will also use words like "grumpy bumps" and "yelly yells". Dr. Vanessa Lapointe is that person!

     

    I adore Dr. Vanessa (ever since I learned she was recommending my products from Easy Daysies to her clients), and in this conversation she does not disappoint! We cover several kinds of discipline and determine what works and what does not:

    • Timeouts
    • Reward charts
    • Consequences
    • Grounding
    • Removal of privileges
    • Connection

    Hint - only one of them works consistently and for the future benefit of your child!

     

    These points are taken from Dr. Vanessa's brilliant book, Discipline Without Damage - How to get your kids to behave without messing them up.

Let me say that the first book I read while in stroke recovery, and a book that changed my life, is "Essentialism: The Disciplined Pursuit of Less" by New York Times Best-Selling author, Greg McKeown.

    So when Greg agreed to be on the podcast, it was a dream come true for me and my husband Ron, so for the first time Ron sat in on the interview.

    I am so proud of so many of the episodes on this podcast, but I believe this one has one of the best chances to change so many lives for the better. It. Is. A. Must. Listen.

    From the book jacket of Essentialism:

    Have you ever found yourself stretched too thin? Do you sometimes feel overworked and underutilized? Do you feel motion sickness instead of momentum? Does your day sometimes get hijacked by someone else’s agenda? Have you ever said “yes” simply to please and then resented it?

    If you answered yes to any of these, the way out is the Way of the Essentialist.

    I believe this describes most of the adult population in our society, including probably you and me! But there is a way out from the overwhelm and into meaningful productivity, and it is not as complicated or difficult as you may think.

    Please listen to this podcast episode as many times as necessary to start applying the message.

    These are the symptoms I ignored / was ignorant of in April 2018 when I had a stroke.

    I wasn't a stroke candidate - not old enough, not overweight, no high blood pressure, etc. Lots of stress yes, but I just didn't think it could happen to me.
