About this listen

Dr Justin Coulson, resident parenting expert on Channel 9's Parental Guidance, draws on positive psychology to gives parents ways to make their family happier than ever, starting today.

Kidspot parenting expert Dr Justin Coulson knows how to make your family happier—starting today.

Everyone wants their family to be happy, but so much gets in the way: work stress, commitments and our children’s challenging behaviour are some everyday obstacles. As a result, families can seem fragmented, stressful and out of control.

21 Days to a Happier Family is packed with effective strategies that are easy to put into place and reap fast rewards. Justin Coulson uses positive psychology and the latest research to help parents identify and develop habits that will strengthen their family. Learn the most effective parenting style for your child, get relationships right for effective discipline, use mindfulness in parenting, discover how optimism influences the wellbeing of families, be emotionally available to your children—and so much more.

The content of this book is ok as far as it goes, but the author is a bit too in love with the sound of his radio announcer voice I think. The effort he has clearly gone to not sound boring and the emphasis on uneven tempo emphasis is just distracting from the content unfortunately. Found it hard to listen to and this impression didn’t get better with time sadly. Try the book instead.

Verbally useful but such an irritating voice
