Struggling to motivate your kids? In this episode, we’re joined by William R. Stixrud, Ph.D. & Ned Johnson – the dynamic duo behind The Self-Driven Child and What Do You Say?: Talking with Kids to Build Motivation, Stress Tolerance, and a Happy Home – to discuss how to talk with our kids to build motivation.
No one wants their kids to fail. As parents, we are wired to help our kids. It’s in our DNA to help our kids succeed in life.
So- how do we help them build bravery, courage and self-sufficiency? We give them those opportunities to shine and feel bravery, courage and see that they can be self-sufficient.
We are delighted to get to speak with Ned Johnson, who is the co-author of “The Self-Driven Child”. Ned helps parents adopt a new way of thinking and employ tools to support their kids autonomy, vital to helping kids lower their stress and develop intrinsic motivation.
