Join us on a journey of intentional parenting as we explore the profound impact of being present and mindful in our roles as parents. Listen in as I, Kori, share insights alongside our special guest, Aaron Stroman, host of the Intentional Father podcast. Together, we navigate the transition from youth ministry to fatherhood, where Aaron candidly reflects on the challenges and rewards that accompany raising children, particularly through life's changes such as divorce. Our conversation underscores the importance of understanding the reasons behind children's behavior and the critical role the family plays in shaping them. By sharing personal stories and experiences, we emphasize how prioritizing quality time and attention can guide our children effectively, even amidst personal challenges.

We highlight how parents may unknowingly pass on their limitations and the value of self-reflection in overcoming these barriers. The narrative includes anecdotes of involving children in our professional lives, illustrating how this can offer them a deeper understanding of our responsibilities. We discuss fostering connection over compliance, particularly during the teenage years, and the significance of modeling resilience and perseverance as parents. Through this engaging dialogue, we aim to inspire a thoughtful approach to parenting that prioritizes love, time, and self-awareness, encouraging a growth mindset and providing children with a nurturing environment to thrive

What if the secret to a peaceful co-parenting relationship was as simple as assuming positive intent? Join me, Kori, as I welcome my dear friend Jill, a seasoned divorce coach, to explore the emotional and logistical intricacies of navigating divorce and co-parenting. Jill shares her journey from law school to becoming a specialist in divorce and child custody cases, highlighting the importance of differentiating between the emotional breakup, the legal divorce process, and the parenting relationship. We unpack the common obstacles parents face during divorce, stressing the need to address each aspect separately to reduce conflict and foster healthier co-parenting dynamics. Reflecting on personal experiences, we underscore the significance of shielding children from parental disputes to safeguard their well-being.
In our discussion, we examine the complexities of co-parenting post-divorce, particularly the negative impact of speaking ill about the other parent in front of the children. We stress the importance of maintaining communication focused on the kids to avoid unnecessary conflicts and share insights into navigating life as a single parent. By embracing vulnerability and honesty, we aim to model open communication for our children, teaching them that it’s okay to not have all the answers and encouraging them to engage in open dialogue. We also tackle the challenges of co-parenting during the holiday season, highlighting the importance of being child-centered and creating new traditions that provide a stable environment for the kids.
Listen in as we emphasize the value of assuming positive intent in co-parenting relationships and interactions with children. Jill and I introduce a practical tool, "API: Assume Positive Intent," encouraging listeners to pause and consider the motivations behind others’ actions, especially during emotional times. We discuss strategies for addressing children’s complaints about the other parent and the dynamics of relationships with stepparents, advocating for children’s autonomy in maintaining these bonds. By focusing on effective communication and mutual respect, we hope to guide families in navigating the complexities of co-parenting with grace and patience, ensuring the happiness and well-being of the children remain a priority.

Welcome to Conscious Not Crazy, where I share insights from my journey as a parent and educator to explore the intriguing parallels between parenting and running a business. In this episode, titled "The Business of Parenting," I reflect on how skills like emotional intelligence, understanding behavior, and empathy are essential in both arenas. By establishing a strong foundation based on values, mission, and vision, we can communicate effectively and align with those we lead, whether it's our children, students, or employees. I share personal experiences and insights on how these principles have guided me through parenting challenges and beyond.
Listen in as I explore the importance of emotional intelligence in "Empowering Leadership and Setting Boundaries." By understanding our personal triggers and setting clear boundaries, we maintain control over our responses and foster an environment where mistakes are embraced as learning opportunities. Modeling desired behaviors and creating a supportive atmosphere helps both children and employees manage failure constructively, encouraging risk-taking and innovation. The conversation emphasizes the need for a strong foundation based on clear values, as actions often speak louder than words.
Join me in "Embracing Failure and Solution-Focused Leadership" as I discuss fostering a supportive environment in leadership at home and work. Reacting with anger or blame can drive individuals into a fear-based state that hinders problem-solving, so it's crucial to guide them in learning from mistakes. By allowing children and employees to experience consequences, we nurture emotional intelligence and problem-solving skills, essential for success in a changing world. Additionally, "Establishing Healthy Boundaries With Others" highlights the significance of setting boundaries in personal and professional relationships, managing interactions with kindness and directness, and embracing failure as a learning opportunity. Tune in for an engaging discussion on navigating life's challenges with clarity and purpose
