Can aligning your actions with your core values transform your parenting and personal life? Join us for an enlightening conversation with Alison Hawkins Ward, a senior trainer with Tony Robbins, as she shares her journey from personal loss to becoming an influential author and parenting advisor. Alison opens up about how her mother's legacy profoundly shaped her approach to life and inspired her to write "Please Don't Come Home Except for a Visit," a heartfelt guide for parents transitioning from supervisors to trusted advisors in their children's lives.
Parenting teens is no easy feat, but Alison introduces her revolutionary "Grit Formula"—Game Plan, Resourcefulness, Investment, and Transformation—as a roadmap for helping adolescents become self-sufficient adults. Listen to engaging anecdotes about real-life challenges and triumphs, like how a daughter's culinary journey began with a non-existent skill set and evolved out of sheer necessity. The conversation dives into the importance of letting children solve problems independently and equipping them with the tools they need for a successful transition into adulthood.
Beyond parenting, we touch on the critical role of self-care, emotional mastery, and finding creative energy through mind mapping. Alison shares practical strategies that are not only vital for parents but also invaluable for indie authors seeking resilience and creative sustainability. Discover how living in alignment with your values can help manage guilt, set healthy boundaries, and maintain a positive outlook amid life's transitions. Tune in for a treasure trove of insights that will inspire and empower you to navigate both parenting and personal development with grace and purpose.
