Wed Feb 04 2026
In this Valentine’s-season episode of the Sustainable Parenting Podcast, I share simple positive parenting strategies that help children truly feel loved while strengthening connection and cooperation.
We explore how small, intentional gestures can meet kids’ emotional needs and support calm confident parenting—without lectures, yelling, or power struggles.
You’ll learn:
how positive character feedback helps with raising confident kids and raising resilient kids,a powerful daily practice called the Rule of 6 that builds connection in just minutes,and how meeting your child’s need for significance and belonging can help stop power struggles with kids and improve listening.Through real stories from my own family and client work, I show how gentle discipline and kind and firm parenting can feel realistic and sustainable.
If you’re looking for practical ways to reconnect and learn how to get kids to listen while staying loving and grounded, this episode is for you.
