Publisher's Summary

You’re already a good parent, but here’s how you can be even better: Do you keep doubting your parenting abilities, because it seems like every time you try harder, you also fail harder? Do you see yourself as a bad parent whenever you make mistakes? Do you wonder what really makes someone a good or a bad parent?

It’s normal to feel this way–parenting is never easy. You’re doing everything you can to give your child the best life possible.

The fact that you’re looking for ways to improve your parenting shows that you are already good enough–because you want to help your offspring thrive in life. Each personality type comes with flaws that can negatively affect your childrearing. It’s crucial to understand how your personality can impact the way you bring up your child, so you know how to improve your weaknesses and play to your strengths. If you want to become the best parent you can be while staying true to yourself, then look no further. Inside, you will discover:

  • The nine enneagram types—and how to interpret your results to use them to your advantage.
  • How to cultivate a growth mindset so you will not be hard on yourself and the rest of your family.
  • Why you need to know your parenting purpose—and seven crucial questions you should ask yourself to discover it.
  • What to do to make your child feel valued and cared for, even if you’re a working parent.
  • And much more!

The strategies in this audiobook are applicable to children of all ages, from infants and teens to grown-up kids.

This audiobook is not meant to dictate what you should do, but rather to help you develop self-awareness so you can overcome guilt, frustrations, and self-doubt as a parent, and be able to raise your kid without giving in to society’s pressures. If you want to know how to make the most of your personality so you can be the best parent you can be, then this audiobook is a must listen.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
