The 10 Keys To ‘Successful’ Peaceful Parenting: Episode 188

This episode of The Peaceful Parenting Podcast is a workshop I gave recently about the keys to being a successful peaceful parent. I discuss how this parenting approach is about more than the tools we use to get through the day (which are also super important!). Instead, I focus on how peaceful parenting is a way a of life- a new way of thinking about your relationship with your kids and a new way of thinking about discipline.

We talk about:

• 6:00 Three Big Ideas of Peaceful Parenting
• 9:00 How peaceful parenting going mainstream has led to misconceptions about this approach
• 12:00 Key 1- The mindset that kids want to be good and are doing the best they can
• 13:54 Key 2- Have self-compassion when you make a mistake
• 18:10 Key 3- Combating our own adult centrism
• 22:00 Key 4- Watch out for “sugar coated control”
• 24:20 Key 5- Your needs count
• 27:30 Key 6- Manage your own needs because it is a long game
• 30:21 Key 7- Co-regulate focus on calming yourself
• 31:35 Key 8- The goodwill bank
• 36:19 Key 9- Find a mentor
• 39:28 Key 10- Find a community
• 40:46 The Peaceful Parenting Membership
