Today, we offer three sentences. They are three simple sentences that may just change the way you talk to your children. And once you see how your relationship with your children changes, you may find yourself wondering how these three sentences will change the way you talk to your partner, your spouse, your team at work. You may find that these relationships grow stronger, and that you grow a bit, too.

Or, you may find you’ve discovered a great new TV show, but you’re going to try different sentences all the same.

Either way, you should listen to the show this week. Nikki Kinzer and Pete Wright share three sentences that have inspired them in the way they talk to their own families. And sometimes, listening to others get inspired is an inspiring enough journey all by itself.

Goals are great. Last week we talked at some length about goals, in fact, and the importance of building the right intention into our goals with “would,” “should,” and “have to.” But anyone can set goals. What sets those who set goals apart from those who achieve them is all about awareness. This week on the show, Nikki Kinzer and Pete Wright discuss the three critical questions to define your level of awareness of your own goals, and help build a framework for understanding the things that are truly important in your life!
