    Here are the highlights of our

    conversation:

    • growing up in Fremont, Michigan as one of 7
      • children
    • how he found role models in Boy Scouts and
      • Young Life
    • how he developed a passion for helping
      • youngsters by helping raise his younger brother Jeff
    • meeting his wife at Western Michigan
      • University, in a very unique setting
    • getting into teaching and not being able to
      • find a stable position
    • his career pivot into the insurance business,
      • and the keys to success that Larry learned
    • after 25 years, he sold the insurance business
      • and had another career pivot to Conscious Discipline, based on his
      three desires to teach, music, and work with children
    • new research on the heart, such as from
      • heartmath.com and the
      importance of breathing
    • when you have chaos, use pictures
    • the problems with spanking
    • his role with the Oxford Farmer's
      • Market
    • giving children choices with your
      • directives
    • Larry's daily routine is focused on:
      •  healthy diet; exercise; prayer & meditation
    • "decisions are power"
    • On his tombstone, Larry wants it to say "He
      • was calm", because his calmness manifests itself onto
      others
    • Larry can be reached at 513.505.5238, or you
      • can subscribe to his weekly newsletter by emailing him
      at [email protected]
