Take the first step today to create a joyful and connected family

It’s a new year! It’s time to reflect, appreciate what we’ve created and achieved in 2023, and make new determinations for 2024.

What aspects of your family would you like to improve? Here are some ideas to get you inspired.

I wish my children….

• Would argue less.
• Would take more responsibility and not blame others.
• Get off electronics without arguing.
• Would open up more to me and share their feelings.
• Were happier and had more interest than social media or YouTube.
• What else?

I wish I….

• Felt more appreciated by my partner and children.
• Knew how to give directions without ending up in an argument.
• Had more courage to set my own boundaries without feeling guilty.
• Could have good discussions without it always turning into an argument.
• And my partner were more on the same page with how we parent.
• What else?

Moving From Family Frustration to Awareness

Your wishes can start to turn into reality. Right now, you may be baffled as to how to make these changes because you don’t know how it got to this unhappy situation in the first place. Right now, you are in the middle of the forest, lost without a path out.

So, the first step is awareness. You need a lamp lit so you can see the individual trees and the pathway out of the forest.

Each of these wishes has been expressed to me. I have responded with the light so they can see the trees clearly, the causes, the pathway out, and the new thoughts and skills that will transform their situation.

Overcoming the Hesitation to Seek Parenting Help

Too many parents are afraid to reach out for help. They tell themselves maybe it will get better on its own, or it’s not so bad. They may think that’s just how it always is, or that their children will be leaving the house soon anyway. Some even believe they can figure it out on their own or don’t need someone to tell them how to raise their kids. Do any of these hit home for you?

If you want 2024 to be a happier year for your family so you can provide a safe haven because the outside world is so stressful, then let’s have a chat.

If you are a couple, I’d love to talk to both of you about your wishes. Often, women will contact me and say their partner (husband) isn’t interested. I find that telling them that I’m an educator, not a therapist, is a good place to start. We won’t be doing therapy. I have a specific process that I use to teach you the skills that will get you closer to your dream family.

I’ve worked with many men and women, too, who are amazed at how learning a specific strategy, such as your parenting role, gives them wisdom and power they never had before. Rather than trying to change the child, which never works, they change, and then the child responds better. It’s not magic. It’s specific information and strategy.

Your Path to a Joyful and Connected Family

I offer a 45-minute complementary Fast-Track Clarity Session at your convenience. There are no obligations to work with me.

Each year, your children get older and are closer to being on their own. You want them to be well-equipped to deal with life, don’t you? You are their most influential teacher of life skills, so don’t wait any longer.

I encourage you to go to my online calendar today and set up a time to talk in January. I’ve set aside special times just for this purpose.

Read this encouraging parent coaching story: How We Are Creating a Unified Parenting Approach

My wife and I contacted Cynthia for three reasons. 1. how to deal with our very physical son; 2. we wanted to come together more on our parenting approach; and 3. the fighting between our two sons.

Over the last two months, we have made great progress. With Cynthia’s advice, our parenting approach is more cohesive as we talk about and work out challenges together. We always leave our discussions with a plan for what to work on. We’ve been working more as a team as we support each other. We greatly value the time we spend with Cynthia because of her great understanding, knowledge, and encouragement. Our family has less conflict and more harmony as we practice the skills she is teaching us.

My wife sees it like working on a whole movie by working on snapshots of what’s happening at the moment. Changing each moment is how the entire movie is changing.

I’ve been working on what to specifically say when each reoccurring problem arises, such as jumping on the coach.

We’re having more family discussions about issues and setting guidelines rather than responding emotionally in the moment and trying to stop “bad” behavior. We’re learning how to proactively plan how to redirect potential problems. We greatly value the time we spend with Cynthia because of her great understanding, knowledge, and encouragement. Our family has less conflict and more harmony as we practice the skills she is teaching us.
