45: Parenting with Intention


Listen Later

It's back-to-school time! Backpacks are filling up, kids are wearing new shoes, and we are trying so hard to convince them that yes, it is bedtime even though the sun is still streaming through the windows πŸ˜‚ Time marches on, and after dropping off one of our kids at college this summer I'm feeling that a little more than usual. So today I wanted to talk about intentional parenting and how we can make the most of the brief 18 years we have our kids closest to us. Every family is different, so intentional parenting looks different for everyone. The important thing is having regular quality time together.

In this episode you'll hear:

πŸ—“οΈ How time with our kids is short (even when it feels long!)

πŸ‘ͺ The power of being present with our children

πŸ“– Intentional parenting strategies from The Family Board Meeting
