I recently came across a documentary that really opened my eyes. And here I was thinking I was in the know regarding what kids today are doing online. How wrong was I! One thing is for sure: I’m very glad I stumbled across this documentary because it has and will allow me to have more conversations with my kids and in doing so, help educate and guide them as to how to navigate their lives in the virtual world. If you are interested in doing the same, tune in…

As the grand finale to the book club series I recently put out on The Screen Strong Solution by Melanie Hempe (episodes 471 – 480), I had the pleasure of speaking to her son, Adam Brooker, on his journey with a serious gaming addiction. He shares so much and has incredible street smart and wisdom on the subject, all of which will help every parent who has a child who games or is on Social Media. Whether you think your child is addicted or not, please do yourself a favour and tune in. Trust me, this is a conversation you do not want to miss.

Parents are always asking me for the “take-away” and how I wish it were only that easy. The problem with looking for the “quick fix” or take-away is that we go to the goal, to what we want or would prefer, and in doing so, completely miss the journey which is where all the learning is. In part 2 of this 3-part mini-series, I chat about this and what you can do to start to get really clear on what it is you want to and need to change and how you might start doing it. And don’t forget to check out my dear friend Tanis Frame the founder of Decide to Thrive. I mention her in the show today – she’s one highly cool, smart, wise and aaahhhmaze-zing lady. Tune in…

It’s all too easy to look back on the shitshow that 2020 was and blame Covid for everything, but…. there’s too much to learn from it all to simply ignore the bad. There’s uncertainty, unforgettable, unprecedented, unimaginable, unpredictable: all rich for the pickings. When we ignore the bad and don’t look deeper, we can often miss all that was and is good in the bad. In this episode, I share with you what I took from 2020 and how I am going to use it to move into 2021 and forge a path I want to be on. Curious as to what my path is going to look like? Tune in to part 1 of this mini 3-part series on the show and get started on paving a new path. A better path…

I think many parents are in denial as to how addicted their kids actually are to their online games and social media accounts. I mean who wants to admit to that? And anyway, how do you know? In this episode, I share some diagnostic criteria (Douglas Gentile, PhD, Iowa State University) for video game and social media dependency and 4 levels of gaming / social media dependency by Families Managing Media. This is really important information for us to be aware of, so I highly recommend that you tune in… And don’t forget, the next episode is going to be really awesome as I’m interviewing Melanie Hempe, the author of the book I have been discussing on the show for the last few weeks. Make sure you subscribe so you don’t miss it!

I don’t think that there has ever been a more important time in our lifetime to strengthen the connection we have with our kids than now. Children today are not only turning to their peers as their main influence but are turning more to their devices thus leaving the parent’s role tenuous, less influential and more and more redundant. This is dangerous. Tune in and find out what you have to do…

Mom: “Will you please get off your phone NOW!”
Child: “But there is nothing to do…”
Mom: “There’s lots to do, you could...”
Child: “That’s boring.”
Sound familiar? I’m sure it does, but here’s the deal. It is VITAL that your kids find other things to do in their lives besides being on their devices. If you are at your wit’s end and stuck, tune in because this is a key piece in it all…

I want to ask you if you want your child to be successful? Duh, of course you do. Now I’m going to ask you this: is your child acquiring the life skills they need to be successful? Grit, determination, perseverance, tolerating frustration, delaying gratification, digging deep, organizing, time management, planning, communicating, collaborating…. In this episode I share with you exactly what your kids need to be doing to be able to get good at all of this and the solution is nowhere to be found online. Your child needs to be doing certain things to gain these crucial skills. Tune in and you’ll find out what you can do.
