• We betrayed a whole nation and we don't care because we choose who we feel sorry for
• The number of people lost in the twin towers happens at least twice over every year in Somali
• Because it's a different race we don't understand we don't think or care about it

Best-selling author, confidence coach and public speaker Dale Hancock talks to Dervish about coaching kids to warrior status and why there is no such thing as perfect parenting.

Dale has spoken across the globe to over 80,000 people about the psychology of children and what we really need to be teaching them to develop self-belief and confidence and shares some of his experiences and invaluable advice in this inspiring episode. If you

want to understand more about the building blocks needed to develop any child's confidence this is a great listen.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

• As parents, you are learning all the time
• Everyone is different, we are all snowflakes because there is not a single person who is the same as someone else
• A child absorbs everything from you they will mimic the behaviours they see.
• The most important lesson in someone's life is self-belief and if you want a child to have self-belief they need to see it in their parent
• First, before they can develop it a child needs to know what self-belief is
• People should have their own definition of confidence;  I get children to draw their confidence
• Children should have three confidence values that they live by every day. Use the 3 ‘A's – awareness, acceptance and action
• It's about helping yourself and helping others and growing as who you really are
• For your kids to be confident you have to be confident yourself
• There is no such thing as a wrong emotion and being put on the naughty step results in children learning not to express themselves
• When kids are young they have no control over their anger
• Every single kid is unique and special
• Creating disconnect, not spending time and putting your child first can all be parenting mistakes.
• Any relationship needs to be valued and achieving a balance between the different relationships in your life is key.
• My legacy is leaving an impact on the young people of the world

BEST MOMENTS

‘Children are 100% our future and I want them to be powerful warriors'

‘It's strong to be vulnerable'

‘Be your own best friend and seek out your passion'
