In this week's episode of First Time Mum's Chat, I'm chatting with Sandra Kwesell who has a background working with children, youth and families in settings including day treatment, counselling, education and therapeutic settings.

Sandra's life journey is the result of her brother's mental health issues that ended in his suicide at the age of 18.

Sandra has developed her Pillars for Success parenting program to find solutions for other families that hers could not and in this episode you'll hear Sandra talk about:-

• The 3 core reasons for challenging and defiant behaviour.
• Words that she refers to as the 'C' word which when removed from your vocabulary will remove the possibility of your child responding defensively or aggressively.
• Why she uses outcomes instead of consequences and why this avoids taking you down a path that is likely to lead to negative interactions and negative outcomes.

AND much more.

So go ahead, my dear mum. Click to listen and get started.
