Identify practices that promote healthy functioning for each participant.
Establish intention, commitment, & individualized plan for pursuing whole health.

Raising Children with Values
Work together to identify your family’s core values.
Then establish expectations, interactions, & discipline practices that reinforce those values, while effectively solving (emotional, behavioral, relational) problems.
(W)holy & Dearly Loved
Establish a parenting approach founded on Colossians 3…but not the verses we usually focus on when talking about family dynamics & expectations.
Change kid behaviors by interacting & communicating with compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness, & patience.
Learn strategies for improving parent-child understanding & alignment, so you can forgive & bear with one another.
Connect discipline with those dynamics to experience love, peace, & thankfulness.

Introduces a discipline framework for using consequences to shape kids' behavior. Includes communication tips for addressing behaviors in healthy ways that maintain calm in the house.
Participants workshop how to combine healthy discipline and communication. Everyone leaves with a strategic plan for tackling those tough behaviors.
Keep the Labels
Where They Belong
Label kids’ stuff, not the kids.
Adults' reactions to kids often have more to do with our own thoughts and feelings than what the kids actually did or didn't do!
Good news: You have way more power to change yourself than to change others.
More good news: in this workshop, we team together to explore productive and healthy ways to perceive and address some common behavioral concerns with kids.
Talking WITH Kids
Too often adults approach kids as the all-knowing wise ones with something impactful to teach or tell. We forget to learn from them!
Understanding facilitates connection and collaboration, so let’s listen. Talk WITH kids - instead of talking TO or AT them.
Learn practical strategies to ensure that you come away from interactions with kids with a better understanding of their emotions and experiences.
Solving Problems with Discipline
Shift from contentious power struggles to collaborative problem solving.
We all get stuck in ruts. Perhaps you haven't strategically planned your responses to kid challenges. Strategies that used to work in your home don't anymore. Kids are developing & your approach hasn't developed with them.
Together we’ll:
1) explore practical ways to understand problems that lead to power struggles
2) apply that understanding to cooperatively solve the actual problems (instead of punishing the apparent behaviors)
