Parenting 101 Plus - Episode 23
Join Paul W. Reeves, Ed.D - a longtime teacher and school principal, and the father of three children - and his guests, as they discuss the world of parenting your children, from birth through age 100! Also included are excerpts and discussions of Paul's parenting book, "A PRINCIPAL'S FAMILY PRINCIPLES - Raising Your Kids to Be Happy and Healthy, While Enjoying Them to the Fullest".
On today's show, in addition to reading the chapter, "Does God Allow 'STILLS'?" from his book, sharing wisdom from others, a bit of humor, and Paul played Part 1 of his interview with DR. DIANE SPEIER - a psychotherapist, hypnotherapist, and childbirth educator.
DR. DIANE SPEIER, a certified Child Birth Educator from the United Kingdom, will join us to discuss all of her work, including her books, "Life After Birth: A Parent’s Holistic Guide for Thriving in the Fourth Trimester" and "Digital Doula®2.0", as well as her upcoming online course, "8 Keys for Thriving in the Fourth Trimester".
From Her Website:
"I became a certified childbirth educator in 1978 and offered birth preparation courses and taught classes in fitness to pregnant and postpartum women for 20 years. I also started attending births as doula in 1978 and have been an enlightened and experienced guide for facilitating birth for my doula clients.
In November 2013, I released the first version of a postnatal app called Digital Doula®. It was the first of its kind, and a rare information resource for postpartum women and their families. Digital Doula®2.0 was released in 2020 as a completely upgraded app that is available in both iOS and Android versions.
In 2019, I published the book Life After Birth: A Parent’s Holistic Guide for Thriving in the Fourth Trimester (Praeclarus Press). Digital Doula®2.0 is the companion to the book, and the sections of the app match the sections of the book and add a couple. And as new information and research becomes available, it will be added to the app to positively supplement the content of the book.
Nowadays, I’ve extracted the decades of work I’ve done as a birth professional into two important workshops for expectant and new parents. One is a way of avoiding birth trauma (Avoiding Birth Trauma: The Missing Link in Birth Preparation), and the other is a prenatal preparation for the postpartum period so you can thrive in the fourth trimester (Postpartum W.E.L.L.N.E.S.S.: Making the Most of Life After Birth). Once you’ve taken traditional birth preparation, you don’t want to miss these additional empowering workshops.
In 2022, I created an online course called 8 Keys for Thriving in the Fourth Trimester, which prepares prospective and new parents for what happens after the baby is born. The 8 modules cover the range of experiences that most parents are unaware will have a profound impact on their relationship and their lives as they make the transition to parenthood. Being prepared for the postpartum period is something that is even more important than preparation for childbirth. As an online course, this is something that parents can dip into as and when they are able."
