About this listen
What if the key to fewer power struggles wasn’t saying more, but saying less?
In this episode, we dive into the power of listening to understand with Certified Parent Educator Patti Cancellier. Through examples and inspiring stories, we explore how simply being present and truly hearing your child can defuse conflict, build connection, and even encourage your child to solve their own problems.
We’ll provide actionable guidance on how to practice focused listening in your family. And, you’ll discover how listening — without jumping to fix or advise — can be one of your most effective parenting strategies. Tune in to learn why sometimes, the best thing you can say… is nothing at all.
