If you feel disconnected from your child, overwhelmed by behavior struggles, or unsure how to rebuild closeness without adding more to your plate, this episode is for you. I am going to show you how just 5 minutes per day can meaningfully change your relationship with your child and help you feel more grounded in confident parenting.
In this solo episode, I walk you through one of the most powerful positive parenting tips I teach as a PCIT specialist. This simple daily practice comes straight from evidence-based parent-child interaction therapy and has helped hundreds of families strengthen their relationship with your child without punishment, power struggles, or long complicated routines. I also share how I use this exact strategy in my own home when things start to feel off.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Why 5 minutes per day of focused attention can transform your relationship with your child
- How this approach supports confident parenting even when behavior feels challenging
- What parents often get wrong about play and connection, and how to fix it
- The specific positive parenting tips that make these five minutes actually work
- How letting your child lead builds emotional safety and strengthens your relationship with your child
If you are looking for realistic positive parenting tips, want to feel more confident in your parenting choices, and are hoping to improve your relationship with your child without burning out, this episode will give you a clear place to start. Five minutes per day really can make a difference, and I want to show you how.
