Show Notes

Ever find yourself getting into a battle of wills with your kid and wondering where you went wrong? In this episode, we interview Bill Stixrud, Ph.D., a clinical neuropsychologist, and Ned Johnson, who is a regular guest and friend of ours here at No Guilt Mom.


Ned & Bill have co-authored several national best-sellers and now have a new book out, The Seven Principals for Raising a Self-Driven Child (A Workbook), in which they discuss how parents can avoid getting into arguments with their kids and put connection first, rather than correction.


In this episode, we dive into the critical importance of remaining a calm and non-reactive presence as a parent. Bill and Ned talk about the benefits of connection over control, understanding stress responses, and practical techniques like meditation for regulating ourselves as parents independently of our interactions with our kids. 


Bill and Ned share their own charming personal anecdotes in addition to giving us all great practical advice to help us manage stress and improve our relationships with our kids.
