Show Notes

I received this email from a friend:

"I recently watched the podcast Follow Him with Hank Smith and John Bytheway…. Their guest presenter…was Dr. Matt Townsend, who is a therapist. Many of the things he was saying reminded me of you and what you have shared about being present and communicating."

I wasn't familiar with Dr. Townsend or the podcast, but I took the time to listen because I love Susan and know she cares about me.

I'm no scholar so it was heartwarming and edifying to see how close I have come to what scholars have learned. I learned from hard experience and the tutoring of God, rather than in school. I was also privileged to work with a few hundred families and saw firsthand what I had learned as a mother. It's amazing what I have gotten right based on what Dr. Townsend shared.

He used a word I was unfamiliar with but found worth sharing – attunement.

Join me today as we explore what the word Attunement means and how it can be helpful in connecting with our children.
