Inviting Feedback From Our Children

Today on Raising Adults, we discuss inviting feedback from our children. Join us as we talk about what this looks like in our homes and what it's like for someone who may have a hard time hearing feedback. How does this approach work? Be sure to tune in!   "Feedback, when given well, should not alienate the receiver of the feedback, but should motivate them to perform better." - M.O., Manager, Fortune 500 Company   “Don’t couch it in good and bad. We’re talking about what’s going well, and where are some areas I could grow? Or where are some areas that I could serve you better? The way that we frame this is really important.” - Kira Dorrian   Today's highlights include:  Kira's why's (6:25) Deana's why (7:44)  How Kira has handled this with her kids (9:30) How Deana does this in her family (11:55) Kira's experience with seeing this up close and personal (17:07) What it has been like for Deana now that her kids are older (20:54) Kira drops some truth about the distinctions in the vocabulary we use (24:43) Today's takeaways (27:06)   Be sure to listen to this episode to find out what Deana gave up for July and her thoughts so far.    Special thanks to our sponsors!    YoLabs - Making life easier for working moms!   Prisma - A totally new way to go to school!   Thanks for joining us on today's episode of Raising Adults!

Om Podcasten

If your parenting ever feels like a game of whack-a-mole, we’ve got you. If you are a Type-A planner who wants to parent proactively, we’re here for you. If you find yourself somewhere in between….that parent who longs to parent with intention, but often ends up reacting to situations as they arise, you are our people! Our distinct philosophy - Future Focused Parenting – takes center stage on the podcast. We open every episode with our own personal “why” to demonstrate bringing intention to specific parenting issues. Then we dive into the “what” and “how” of each topic, moving quickly into actionable tools and strategies our listeners can start using right away. As your co-hosts, we bring our professional experience to bear, but never fail to share our own struggles as parents. In addition, we have some unique differences in our personalities and beliefs. This dynamic creates a distinct feel, allowing our listeners to explore varying ways to approach parenting topics and ultimately decide what works for their family. We invite you to listen to the groundbreaking parenting podcast that starts with the end in mind. Stop raising kids; start Raising Adults!
