  • All the values I was looking for in parenting

    As a brand new mom, I had certain values I wanted to abide by in my parenting, however I was unsure how to implement them, I was surprised to find Lisa had those same values and explains very well how to parent as a leader. I especially love that she specializes in teenagers, ensuring the knowledge that what you implement in your young kids is a result of how they will be as teens. I’m excited to keep up with bratbusters as I navigate motherhood

  • Wonderful

    I’ve been listening to Lisa’s podcast for about a year and I love her respect for who kids are and her focus on connecting with your children and having fun. I find the structure of the behaviour board a really helpful guideline for myself and my chicken.

  • Love this podcast but needs a bit of change

    Iv been listening to this podcast for probably over a year and have really enjoyed it and like Lisa’s approach but I think he needs a bit of change to the format. It’s starting to feel repetitive. I know exactly what Lisa is gonna say when she is gonna say it 🤣 Some new real life examples and how different scenarios play out and how to approach, would be helpful. You can’t keep saying refer to the pool story. If Lisa says she can’t say the story again and says go to her page. A little change u... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Master a Calm Exterior as a Parent (Try This)
Q: Marjorie from Ireland asks for advice on a preschooler who acts erratically first thing in the morning, resisting routines.
The guidance is to create a predictable transition, such as a morning book or a short video recap of the previous day, to ease into the day. If resistance persists, maintain a calm boundary and gradually shift to a structured routine while ensuring time for connection later.
Master a Calm Exterior as a Parent (Try This)
Q: Joanna from the United States asks how to handle a headstrong two-year-old who repeatedly tests boundaries and how to say no effectively.
They advise saying no succinctly, applying immediate, simple corrective actions, and then removing the child from the activity for a brief period to break the pattern. The emphasis is on consistent, calm delivery and building muscle memory for self-control in toddlers.
Master a Calm Exterior as a Parent (Try This)
Q: Dawn from the United States asks about a three-and-a-half-year-old who ignores consequences and uses adult verbiage like 'the fun stops until you cooperate.'
The hosts recommend consistent corrective actions, decoding the behavior through a calm, leader-like approach, and avoiding empty promises. They suggest following the Behaviour Board, applying a few minutes of time-away from the fun, and then reconnecting calmly after the child resumes cooperation.
How to Validate Feelings (The Mistake Parents Make)
Q: Amanda from the United States asks how to handle a two-year-old who cries when not allowed to climb a tumbling ramp in class.
Acknowledge the feeling briefly, avoid escalating with eye contact, and redirect to a calm, engaging activity (like dancing with others) to rejoin the class while respecting boundaries.
How to Validate Feelings (The Mistake Parents Make)
Q: Emily from the United States asks how to respond when her three-year-old says he is sad and resists comfort, especially with a parent returning home from work.
Treat sadness as a mood and allow space, then participate in shared play to gently shift attention and invite engagement, using playtime as a pathway to talk through feelings later.
