What if every family moment—before school, after school, dinner, bedtime—could be a chance to truly hear your child and build their confidence? Drawing on nearly 40 years of parenting experience and the latest research in emotional intelligence, this guide helps you transform daily routines into meaningful opportunities for your child to feel seen, valued, and empowered.
Inside, you’ll find practical, age-flexible strategies for children ages 5–13 that meet your child where they are, calm-centered tools for navigating tough days with compassion, and curiosity-driven questions that invite your child to share their thoughts freely—without pressure.
