Season 1 Finale: Positive and Purposeful Parenting with Domari Dickinson

Send us Fan MailThe Season Finale is Here!We've heard the saying "Kids don't come with a parenting guide" over and over but there are people who are making waves to change that. Domari Dickinson is one of those people. She is an accomplished educator who has done extensive training and has the experience to teach us a thing or two about how to raise children in a more peaceful, respectful, and purposeful way.On the podcast, Domari shares so many tips- from how to identify our triggers, to changing the language we use when talking to our kids. Domari stressed the importance of first identifying your family's core beliefs. What does your family value and what are your beliefs? Identifying your triggers will help you respond differently and communicate better with your children. Sometimes this work may require therapy. How you communicate matters:Get clear with your directions - Clean your room vs. make your bed, vacuum, dust, etc. Be specific - Stop jumping on the furniture vs. Go outside to burn off some energy for 30 minutes.Focus on the positive - thank you for using walking feet in the house vs. pointing out every time they run in the house.The most impactful take away from my time with Domari on this episode was the idea that we don't have to CONTROL our kids to be a good parent. We must give them the chance to practice using their voice, problem-solving skills, and critical thinking. Domari offers positive parenting classes, one on one coaching, and her next cohort begins October 1, 2020 (online of course ;) ).
