  You have an awesome kid!! Truly. Once you see that, and fully believe it, it’ll change everything. If we want to raise kids who are emotionally intelligent, self-trusting and resilient… one thing is clear: we can’t just show them how to distract themselves from discomfort, which is what we see so often in the world.

• S10|12 - Raising Critical Thinkers with Julie Bogart

  It takes less than a minute on social media to notice that there is a skill that is lacking in our world: critical thinking. It’s not what you might think… sitting in a stuffy classroom, reading texts, thinking about them and deciding what’s right or wrong. Critical thinking is MUCH deeper than that, and MUCH more important in our world today. If there is one skill you want to teach your teens today- this is it. Join Julie Bogart and I on the podcast this week for a fascinating conversation on what critical thinking is, and what it is not. Julie is known for her commonsense writing, critical thinking and home education advice. Her podcast and social media are wildly popular sources of support to weary, well-intentioned parents. Julie home educated her five children who are now globe-trotting adults. Today, Julie lives in Cincinnati, Ohio.What we delve into today: Helping support writers in your home to love writing, and learn to express themselves in powerful ways What critical thinking is, and how it deepens self-awareness Sitting in the discomfort of opinions that are different than yours to increase your own growth How to foster critical thinking in your kids Connect with Julie! Books HEREOn IG HEREOn FB HEREBRAVE WRITER links HEREPodcast HERE---Connect with Crystal:Intuitive Journaling Prompts HERE and a somatic meditation (Move through frustration in 15 minutes or less) HERE, The Art of Non-Attachment Workshop HEREGet started on this work with daily practice in a journal, Burn This Book (a great intro to mental and emotional wellness) HEREWork with Crystal 1:1: www.coachcrystal.ca/miracle or in group: www.coachcrystal.ca/creationroomGrab your copy of Crystal’s feelings wheel here: www.coachcrystal.ca/wheelFind your parenting personality (and get tips specific to it) by taking the quiz HERE

• S10|11 - Mouth-Breathing, Behaviour Issues and Jaw Growth with Dr. Ben Miraglia

  Did you know that years ago our mouths were big enough to fit wisdom teeth comfortably? And that jaw growth has decreased significantly over the last 100 years? You’ll be surprised to hear how jaw growth, mouth-breathing and behaviour in kids (including ADHD-like symptoms) are all interconnected. Today we chat with Dr. Ben Miraglia, a graduate of SUNY at Buffalo School of Dental Medicine and the United States Dental Institute, who has been in private practice for over 20 years. In addition to his clinical practice, Dr. Miraglia serves as the Chief Dental Officer at Toothpillow, a preventative, pre-orthodontic system designed to correct and support proper jaw development, promoting nasal breathing and preventing many health problems. Toothpillow addresses the root causes of misaligned teeth, often without the need for braces or tooth extraction. In today’s conversation: How most children (and adults) have undersized jaws, and what you can do to grow your jaw Why mouth-breathing makes a difference in sleep, bedwetting, behaviour and more (and what to do about it) How braces only fix a symptom, and don’t treat the cause (and don’t often work long-term) 3 steps to start the healing process, starting at the root cause Dr Ben’s Links: Toothpillow Instagram HEREDr. Ben Miraglia's Instagram HERE Website: https://www.toothpillow.com/**Use the code "Parenting Coach" to receive a complimentary evaluation from a highly trained Airway Dentist and $250 off treatment when you book between March 24th-31st, 2025 If you book outside of these dates, you’ll still receive 50% off the consultation and $100 off treatment!Make sure to mention "Parenting Coach" in the referral section when booking**---Links to Crystal’s work, to help on your own inner journey: Intuitive Journaling Prompts HERE and a somatic meditation (Move through frustration in 15 minutes or less) HERE, The Art of Non-Attachment Workshop HEREGet started on this work with daily practice in a journal, Burn This Book (a great intro to mental and emotional wellness) HEREWork with Crystal 1:1: www.coachcrystal.ca/miracle or in group: www.coachcrystal.ca/creationroomGrab your copy of Crystal’s feelings wheel here: www.coachcrystal.ca/wheel
