Hello Parents! If you have ever wanted to find a flexible schedule to work your job from home? If so, have you stopped because you don't know how to do it with elementary-age children at home? Listen in to hear what worked for Wendy Cocke. Wendy Cocke, Author of the #1 bestselling book, “Making Flex Work: Defining Success on Your Own Terms” is the founder of Engineering Leadership solutions and a working mother of two. Prior to starting her business, Wendy spent over 20 years as an engineer in Fortune 500 companies leading global teams. When her oldest child, who is now in middle school, was just an infant, Wendy struggled to find balance. She felt like she was failing at home and at work, so she took matters into her own hands. After 11 months, she was able to convince her company to let her go part time, something that had never been done at the leadership level before. Wendy was told that her career would “stall,” that she was “walking away from everything she had built,” and that “she would never get promoted again,” but she didn’t believe them! She knew there had to be a way to find the balance she and her family desperately needed. Today, through lived experience and intentional language, Wendy’s children understand that work is something people do to provide for the lifestyle they enjoy, and they work together as a family to seamlessly transition between work and play. I know you will LOVE this episode! Enjoy and be INSPIRED!

I see you, Parents ~ We ALL have our times as parents that we wish to crawl under a rock and hide! We know it. We ALL ALSO have those moments where WE ARE ROCKSTARS! We know those moments, too! We feel proud of our moments. And, when others share their stories, we learn other ways of handling situations. We gain different perspectives. We become more creative when we hear how someone else did "the thing!" Creative communication remembers not only what we hear, but also how to apply it to what our child sees, hears, how they move, and experience life. Whatever isn’t working, is there a different way to teach it? Join me today for the first EVERYDAY PARENT EPISODE, where we share stories of what we have done to connect with our kids in ways that WORKED! Our minds open when we hear someone’s story! I KNOW YOU have HUNDREDS of great stories! Everyday parent episodes focus on a story to share that encourages others, even when outcomes are not be the idea you expect, such as in today's story. Join ME, as I begin Everyday Parent episodes with a story from me. I have learned so much from the stories of others. Your story is a gift you can give. I believe when we give our stories, we give ideas to others; we empower other parents! Are you willing to share a story of connection or communication with your kids? If so, please connect with me at [email protected]! In Gratitude, Dinalynn Contact: [email protected]
