Why I Don’t Use Discipline

MICHELLE KENNEY, M. ED
About this episode

Discipline can be a confusing word in the world of conscious parenting. Is it guidance and coaching or do most of the world view it as harsh punishments? In my world with my daughters, I do not subscribe to any type of punishment or discipline. In this podcast, I tell you why and give you a compelling argument as to why you should consider doing away with harsh parenting altogether. In reality, it does us no favors and can actually cause more of the behaviors we find ourselves punishing our children for.

 

Working with individuals and couples is my most favorite work. We dive deeply into the ideas of connection and unravel the struggles of each individual family I work with. It’s a transformational paradigm shift each and every time. I have seen families undergo huge changes which forever impact their relationships. My One on One programs will see an increase in 2022.  From now until the end of the year purchase my 6, 8,  or 10-week packages at the 2021 prices and save 15%. I have limited space, so these 8 spots will be first come first serve. I look forward to working with you.
