Boys and Discipline {Podcast Episode 004 With Wendy Speake}
Hi Friends! In today’s podcast episode, Wendy Speake and I are talking about BOYS and DISCIPLINE.
Wendy and I are picking up from where we left off in our last Episode (Boys, Boundaries, and Freedoms), which covered the first part of Chapter 3 of the Boy Mom book. The question we left off with is: “Boundaries are great, but what happens when our sons bust the boundaries?” In today’s episode, Wendy and I invite you to listen in as we chat about exactly that. We talk about disciplining without losing our cool. (it isn’t easy.) We talk about using our kids’ “currency” to teach the best lessons. We share some of our honest struggles and what is working for us. I hope you feel like you’re sitting with us for this conversation.
You can find the Boy Mom Podcast on all of the various podcast platforms…here are just a few of them:
