I have been a longtime fan of her newsletter, and whenever I have a parenting question, her website, AhaParenting is my go-to-resource. Raising children is a huge responsibility, and with it we parents often feel the weight of the world upon our shoulders as we try to raise kind, compassionate, honest and good human beings. I’m confident that most parents would agree the last 9+ months have been tough. Even the most well rested, resourced and zen parents have been challenged by the Global pandemic. In reaching out to Dr. Laura I thought that of all the parenting topics we could discuss, parenting during the pandemic was at the top of the list. Today Dr. Laura and I are talking about the challenges parents are facing such as increased screen time, isolation, anxiety and others. In this conversation, Dr. Laura will share ways that we can all be more present, more connected and more peaceful with our children, no matter what their age.

The parents' job is to protect their children, offer safety and security, and above all, love them unconditionally. But there are visible and invisible barriers and everyone struggles.

By activating their own strong executive function, parents can build a nurturing relationship with their children.On this episode, author, parenting expert, and the founder of AhaParenting.com, Dr. Laura Markham, explains how the most effective discipline strategy parents could choose is to have a close bond with their children.

You may have been provoked by the recent death of George Floyd at the hands of a white police officer in Minnesota or by similar events in the UK and Australia, and elsewhere, to think really hard about racism. Were you galvanised into taking part in a protest against racism and against police brutality? Are you wondering how to bring up your children not only to not be racist themselves but to be outraged by discrimination on the basis of skin colour and to speak out against it? If you want to raise children who are going to be kinder, more tolerant adults who will create a better future for all this is the episode for you. Listen to this episode with Dr Laura Markham if you want to learn: Why it matters to talk to children about race if you are living in a society where your skin colour matches the skin colour of the dominant culture and what our responsibility is if we want our children to grow up in a non-racist culture How we can celebrate difference between people at the same time as recognising our common humanity How you can talk to even quite young children about racism and police brutality without scaring them How you can spark great conversations with kids by tapping into their already keen sense of what is fair and by talking about how people feel when the subject of unkindness Why ‘colour-blindness' should not be our goal and how that invalidates the experience of someone suffering discrimination and how seeing race is not the problem but making judgments about a person because of racial characteristics would be How important it is to develop your own self-awareness and your reactions to people of different races and be aware of the modelling you provide to your child How using questions, rather than telling your child what to think, is such an effective way to stimulate your child's thinking How you can talk to even young children about white advantage Why reprimanding children for making comments you're not happy with is not the best way to teach them How to engage older children with these issues and to empower them to feel they can effect change themselves, by taking part in peaceful protests to demand change or to write letters How you can influence children's thinking by what they're exposed to in their everyday environment through the toys they play with, the films they watch and the books they read as well as the people they spend time with How to move beyond feelings of shame and awkwardness or guilt about historical or current racism to educate yourself and your child for a different future. Acknowledging pain is the key to opening up for positive action How to give children messages of hope And her top tip for raising children to be respectful, fair adults who can create a better future for all of us.

First, yes, it was confirmed that "unpeaceful" is a real word. In this episode, Ameé brings back to the show Dr. Laura Markham, creator of Aha! Parenting, therapist, coach, and author of "Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids." Originally the plan was to have a conversation about the challenges of parenting children during a worldwide pandemic, but then with the brutal death of George Floyd on May 25 in Minneapolis, Minnesota, the whole country was thrust into the largest civil rights movement in human history. Recorded on June 3, 2020, Ameé then asked Laura to talk with her about parenting our kids and ourselves through social justice, anti-racism, and how to prepare for the upcoming Presidential elections, regardless of political affiliations. In this episode, you will hear:What do when a parent’s stresses are being activated or re-traumatizedWhat are the age-appropriate discussions to have with kids about race & racism?What are good strategies for hiding our stresses from our kids in ways that don’t activate them but in a way that allows for their emotional development?What is okay for our kids to see and what can be harmful or activating for children?

Everyday Rockstar (0:00:00) Richie talks with this week's featured Everyday Rockstar. You can send your Everyday Rockstar nominations to thelisashow@byu.edu. Moving with Kids (0:05:52) Moving. It's almost a swear word in my family. Moving with kids can be a nightmare, or a fun adventure. But what is it that draws that dividing line between a month of meltdowns and a fresh new start? Here with us on the show today is clinical psychologist, parenting expert, and founder of Aha Parenting, Dr. Laura Markham. Damsel in Defense (0:22:52) On The Lisa Show, we like to give you the tools you need to live your best life. But today, we want give you the knowledge you need to live a safe life. Safety first, right? According to the US Bureau of Justice, just over 650 thousand women were victims to rape or sexual assault in 2018. That's 300 thousand more women than the year before. Every time a woman walks down a street alone in the dark her mind races with all the worst possible case scenarios. We want to help you get rid of that fear and replace it with confidence. Here to teach us more about the tools and knowledge we need to be prepared for potential life-threatening situations is Caryn Stastny. She's the Director of Marketing Communications for Damsel in Defense, a company whose goal is to help women protect themselves in dangerous situations. Animal Thoughts (0:38:15) Have you ever looked at your dog and wondered what they're thinking about you? We know our pets have emotions. Every day we see their joy when we come home or their guilt when they've done something naughty. But is it possible that animals think the same way we do like in movies like Homeward Bound or Bambi? There's obviously something going on in the minds of dogs, birds, elephants and all other animals, but how complex are their thoughts? To help us understand we've invited Dr. Carl Safina onto the show. He's an Endowed Professor for Nature and Humanity at Stony Brook University. Why Protest (0:52:45) If you've been paying attention to the news recently, you'll have noticed protests have been erupting across the nation in response to the murder of George Floyd. All 50 states have now witnessed widespread demonstrations within their own borders in support of the Black Lives Matter Movement and condemning police brutality. The right to peaceably assemble is held dear by all Americans. And protesting has been used throughout history to enact change in society and government. We wanted to find out more about what constitutes as a protest and what protesters should do when the march is over for real change to happen. Joining our conversation is protest and social movement expert, Pamela Oliver. Summer Camp Cautions (1:11:42) Summer camp. Every year you look forward to it, and so does your child. But summer camps look a little different this year. A lot of them have been cancelled, but some of them might be proceeding even with the COVID-19 restrictions. Naturally, if your child's summer camp is still a-go, you're probably concerned that they'll catch the virus. So, what do you do? Do you send them? Clint Salter is a dance industry expert who is helping studio owners get back to business in the safest way possible. He has some advice for parents about summer camps, and we wanted to hear it, so we've invited him on the show. Long Distance Relationships (1:26:01) For many people, the thought of living far from their partner is too much to handle. And this makes sense, right? Not only does physical distance prove difficult, but we are afraid of the possible emotional distance that comes with it. We also see movies, read books, and hear stories from friends of the challenges of living apart. With all this said, living long-distance is sometimes necessary, and we need the attitude and tools to make it work. For this purpose, we invited Liz Colizza, a relationship therapist and co-developer of the relationship counseling app Lasting, on the show to share with us how we can make long-distance relationships work.

Who is Dr. Laura Markham? She’s a Colombia-trained clinical psychologist, founder and editor at AhaParenting.com, author of three parenting books including my favorite Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids, a parenting expert for many websites, and a life-changer for many, many families including mine. (You’ll hear what my wife Leslie thinks at the beginning of this chapter!) Dr. Laura Markham translates proven science into practical and simple solutions to live an intentional life. So in chapter 46, let’s stop and pause and choose how we respond to help drive a movement towards love and compassion. I partly resonate so deeply with Dr. Laura Markham’s work, because I feel like the higher place she’s leading us towards is also the same place I want 3 Books to lead us toward. In this chapter, we chat about the complexities of parenting and how we can be more present as parents. Dr. Laura Markham shares many valuable insights, from communicating through play, navigating our own traumas, mastering the skill of sending love to strangers, and how we need to develop a closer relationship with death. And, of course, we talk about Dr. Laura Markham’s 3 most formative books. Let's go! WHAT YOU'LL LEARN: How can we heal our inner trauma first so we don’t project that onto our children? How is sitting in stillness an important key to ‘getting things done’? Why do we need to bring awareness to our pain? Why do we project our emotions and our pain onto the people we love? How has our understanding of mental illness progressed over history, and where do we need to go from here? How can you make death your peer instead of your persecutor? Leave us a voicemail.

Running Alone (0:00:00) Going jogging by yourself is dangerous, especially for women. 84 percent of women say they've experienced harassment while running which left them feeling unsafe according to a recent Runner's World survey. So, if you're the kind of person who gets your exercise by running around your neighborhood or at the track, it's important to be aware of your surroundings and develop safe habits. To help us feel smart, confident and safe while running, we've invited Jennifer Cassetta on the show. Jennifer is a self-defense expert and public speaker that focuses on women's empowerment and wellbeing. Moving with Kids (0:15:32) Moving with kids can be a nightmare, or a fun adventure. But what is it that draws that dividing line between a month of meltdowns and a fresh new start? Here with us on the show today is Dr. Laura Markham, a clinical psychologist, parenting expert, and founder of Aha Parenting. Allyship (0:30:46) We want to believe that we're all created equally, but it's an unfortunate truth that whether because of gender, race or sexuality, sometimes life is easier for some people than it is for others. These differences are important, they're a part of our identities and we want to celebrate them and it's unfair and unjust when anyone is held down because of their beautiful differences. So the question is—what can be done about the situation? If we see someone being treated unfairly, especially if they're being treated so because they're a minority in some sense, how can people reach out and help? Here to talk to us about some of her thoughts surrounding this and allyship is poet Ashley Finley. Martin Luther King Speech (0:49:45) 56 years ago today, Martin Luther King Jr. gave his historical “I Have a Dream” Speech at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington D.C. Looking back on this speech and the Civil Rights Movement, what can we learn? Here to talk to us about the impact of MLK and the movement he helped foster is historian Clayborne Carson. Life Lessons from Hollywood and Beyond (1:05:32) Have you ever wanted to do something creative, but you weren't sure how to? Have you thought that maybe you don't have creative talents? Well, you're not alone, but you might be wrong. Colin Egglesfield is an actor and model who just came out with a book called Agile Artist: Life Lessons From Hollywood And Beyond. It's about trusting yourself to lean into the creative life that you've always wanted to realize. Colin joins us today to tell us a little more about that. Seven Worlds One Planet (1:21:34) With our many distractions and daily activities, often we forget that there's more to this world than what's right in front of us. It can be hard to appreciate natural wonders and wildlife that we can't physically see. Luckily for us, the creators of the new BBC show, Seven Worlds: One Planet, set out to bring viewers a spectacular new perspective of wildlife throughout the seven continents. Here to tell about what went into making this show is Dr. Jonny Keeling. Dr. Keeling is the executive producer of Seven Worlds, One Planet.

Family Confidential: Secrets of Successful Parenting with Annie Fox, M.Ed.
Today's tweens and teens spend a lot of time connected to each other on social media. Some of it is just chatter (like many of the texts we send to our friends and family!). But heart-to-heart connections also happen for teens via social media and they know the difference. Parents want to maintain the heart connection with their kids, but kids have ambivalence when it comes to "how close" to be with their parents. As Clinical psychologist Dr. Laura Markham says, "Parents make all kinds of missteps that make teens feel they don't want to be close (to us). When we parent out of fear we push them away." Annie talks with Laura about how to make fewer missteps and keep that parent-teen connection respectful and positive. About Laura Markham (@DrLauraMarkham) Dr. Laura Markham trained as a Clinical Psychologist, earning her PhD from Columbia University. She is the founding editor of AhaParenting.com and also serves as a parenting expert for Mothering.com, Psychology Today, The Natural Parent Magazine and others. Dr. Laura's books include "Peaceful Parent, Happy Kids: How to Stop Yelling and Start Connecting" and "Peaceful Parent, Happy Siblings: How to Stop the Fighting and Raise Friends for Life."
