She's with us today to talk about how to help young children with grief, including how young children grieve, the truth about what children need from adults when they're grieving, the fact that childhood is the best time to learn about grief, and specific tips for adults to help young children grieve.

Michele is a mom of two, a Certified Grief Recovery Specialist®, an early childhood parent coach, and the founder of Good Grief Parenting.

The desire of Michele’s heart is to see families live forward after loss toward a future bright with possibilities and even joy.

EP. 44 Develop a Sense of Wonder & Curiosity in your Children - How reading creates curiosity, wonder AND empathy with Special Guest & Author, Brian Frederick

Welcome Back Parents! Have you registered for the upcoming webinar?

Turn Behavior Problems into No-Problem? 

Click this link to register befor February 11th, 2022 https://www.meetup.com/noproblemparenting/events/283464726

 

My guest today is Brian Frederick! 

Brian a children's book author who aims to bring more joy into the world, for children (and for the adults who love them) so that they can live happier lives filled with more kindness.

Brian is a proponent of finding the goodness in life. He shares the value of that philosophy through children’s stories. In his books he hopes to entertain children and show them a world of kindness, joy and wonder.

Monday through Friday finds Brian as the lawyer at the helm of a commercial mediation services company. His work encourages solving disputes peacefully. This ideal carries over to the philosophy he shares in his children’s books.

Asked about his philosophy of life as a writer, Brian said:

“I don’t know if stories for children can change the world, but I hope they can make it a little better – certainly for my readers.
I hope I can bring a little more joy into the world, and a little more truth and kindness.
I do care that these and other important things are often in short supply when they needn’t be. Maybe my readers and I can change that together…”


In a previous life, Brian made back page headlines in his home country as a record breaking swimmer. He was once dubbed ""the hottest property in Irish Swimming"" and some of his records stood for more than 30 years. He took several international caps representing Ireland abroad, before ""extra-curricular"" activities became more alluring in his late teens.

You Only Dine Twice... Brian has enjoyed both breakfast and dinner (twice) with both James Bond and Vanessa Redgrave...

The last thing Brian did before lockdown was to have a pizza with an Oscar winner and his wife..."

EP. 43 Comprehensive Sex Education - Embrace your parenting role as a trusting resource for your kids! with Special Guest Andrea Brand

Welcome Back Parents!  Happy Love Month!

Today's guest Andrea Brand is a great resource for parents as you navigate those tricky conversations about sex, body image and  hormones!

Andrea Brand is a passionate proponent of comprehensive sex education and helping parents embrace their role as open, trusty resources for their kids.

Her work as a life coach focuses on supporting women interested in trading-in feelings of overwhelm for confidence and contentment. She worked for decades in public health, initially in direct care and then as a research consultant to impact programs and policy. After exploring her own inner conflict that resulted from the competing demands of a fast-paced corporate culture and life outside of the office, she stepped away from her career to evaluate her priorities and focus on what matters most to her: family, interpersonal connections, and living authentically. This reconnected her back to work promoting sex education as well as helping others live more purposefully.

Andrea holds MSW and MPH degrees from the University of Michigan and is also a certified life coach. Now an empty nester, she resides in Massachusetts with her husband and dog.

You can find Andrea's book and more information about her coaching program at: www.arbcoaching.com
