- Quality Time with Kids
Have you ever been in the same room as your kids but felt miles away?
The other night at dinner, my child stopped mid-sentence and asked, "Daddy, are you even listening?" That hit harder than stepping on a rogue LEGO.
It was a wake-up call—I was physically there, but not really there. And the truth is, our kids can always tell the difference.
I’ve started a mission to be truly present—not just at their big events, but in the small, everyday moments that matter just as much. But breaking the habit of distraction isn’t easy.
What if we’re showing up for our kids in all the wrong ways?
If you’ve ever struggled to be fully present with your kids, you’re not alone—here’s what I’m learning.
Is pushing kids to get good grades the fastest way to raise successful children?
Surprisingly, the answer is NO.
Focusing solely on academics makes up just a small part of what truly nurtures a child's self-belief and independence.
So what's the real game changer in raising unstoppable kids?
It’s all about getting them to learn critical life skills.
Did you know skills like problem-solving, creativity, financial literacy and resilience make the difference between those who succeed and those who struggle later in life?
This is way more impactful than just pushing for good grades.
Unfortunately, many parents waste hundreds of dollars every month on tutors and academic programs focusing only on rote learning.
While adding tremendous amounts of stress to young kids.
Smart parents are discovering this simple solution to spark their child's fire for self-driven achievement, raising confident leaders fast.
