Joyful Courage for Parenting Teens

Hi Listeners! Welcome to the Joyful courage 2022 Summer Throwback series! We are all busy enjoying the long days of sunshine, and I wanted to be sure that you have some useful listening material to enjoy - so I will be sharing some of my favorite shows from the past with you weekly through July and August.

I am kicking things off by returning to a show that had me fan girling all over the place… Not one, but TWO of my fave voices in parent education made time to talk with me - it was amazing. Episode 215 with Dr. Dan Siegel and Dr. Tina Bryson. We talk all about the book they co-authored, The Power of Showing up.

She supports families in fostering rapport, cultivating conscious connections, transforming obstacles and restoring harmony in the home.
