May 24, 2023 Ep 121: Danielle Bettmann | Parenting Strong-Willed Kids: Unlocking Your Child's Potential
Introducing the powerhouse parenting coach for parents of strong-willed kids, Danielle Bettmann! Danielle is a Positive Discipline - certified parent educator with years of experience as a teacher and home visitor with a degree in early childhood development from birth - age 8. She is also a mom to two daughters, wife of 13 years to her high-school sweetheart, and host of the well-loved podcast, Failing Motherhood.

Wholeheartedly CALM is her 11-week virtual group coaching program where defeated parents find validation and proven techniques to parent their 1-7-year-old kids with composure, connection, and confidence. It's specifically designed to transform their relationship with their toughest child.
💥Do you have a strong-willed child?
💥 How can you tell?
💥 What are some of the traits?
💥 What is your child trying to tell you?
💥 What strategies and techniques can we adopt as parents?
💥 What do children need today and what are the roots to the development of their well-being?
💥 How do we be proactive and get ahead of the big emotions in a healthy way?

Emily loves writing songs, making and performing music, and learning new things. She tries to have a positive outlook in life and hopes her songs and actions will make a difference. She sings for charity and to raise awareness about issues she is concerned about in this world.
“Deep breaths can help you calm your mind. If you’re heart is beating really fast it can impact your performance and if you just Take a few deep breaths it can calm your mindset and then you can say to yourself ‘I can do it’ and do different positive messages ... You know that you’ve done your best and you have practiced so if anything goes wrong, that’s ok.”
Emily has some fun sharing:
💥 How does she manage her “big emotions” as a musician and actor at such a young age
💥 Why her songs are so important … Net Zero, Riding for Malawi and Christmas Every Day,
💥 “Teach Me TV”, a program where “kids teach kids”.
💥 How she prepares for her acting auditions and performances, including her monologue about the book, “I Am Malala”.
