The Power of Coaching Changes Everything (even Parenting!)

In this short and insightful episode of The Stop Parenting & Start Coaching Podcast, we explore the foundational power and profound impact of coaching. Parenting your teen athletes and performers is really, really hard! This is one of several reasons we discuss in making our case for you as a parent to seek high level coaching. Elevating your own game will equip you with the tools and skills to foster a championship level relationship with your teen. This is the foundational level of our framework: The Parenting Success Pyramid-which assists you, the perpetually busy, sometimes stressed, and always well-intentioned parent to stop parenting & start coaching your teen to greater peace of mind and success on the court, field, or stage. Coaching is the foundational level of The Pyramid (Listen to Episode 13 for an overview of our Parenting Success Pyramid model). Coaching just plain works! If you can't tell, we highly recommend it! :) If you love listening to The Stop Parenting and Start Coaching Podcast please share this episode with a parenting friend or colleague and post a 5 star review! THANK YOU! And, please join us in our upcoming episodes as we will enthusiastically share more of The Parent Success Pyramid! -Nate & Steve

The Parenting Success Pyramid

Don't you, like every parent, want your teen to perform their best? Of course you do! How can you help your teen experience the empowering freedom and support that can alleviate much of the intense pressure they feel to perform and to please you?Where's the map for all of this?! Well, here's the good news! We have THE map! We wish we had it in our possession years ago and you'll learn today how it was born out of necessity. In this episode of The Stop Parenting & Start Coaching Podcast we proudly introduce The Parenting Success Pyramid. This amazing system has four fundamental components: receiving coaching, creating meaningful relationships, developing the right skillset, and finally "coaching" rather than "parenting" your teen athlete or performer. And there's more! Within The Parenting Success Pyramid are built-in tools designed for and tested on real parents just like you! You will soon find these free tools on our website (createtransformbecome.com) along with our first course, The Scoreboard Course, as we continue to build our stockpile of resources to help you and your teen! Thanks for listening and sharing this podcast (& a 5 star glowing online review) with your parenting friends! Let's goooooo! You can do this parents! -Nate & Steve

The Magical Mel Schmitz & Imperfect Parenting!

SHOW NOTE: Our gratitude for Mel Schmitz is overflowing! Mel was so accommodating by recording with us while on holiday in Malaysia. We are so pleased to share our interview with the incomparable Mel Schmitz on this episode of The Stop Parenting & Start Coaching Podcast. Mel is an Educational Psychologist at the International School of Stuttgart in Germany. She has served there for over 15 years and is also known as the "Teacher of Happiness!" Among her many talents (she's a mother of two wonderful kids, enough said!), Mel is a immensely talented author who creates unique nonsensical rhymes about her parenting adventures! She will make you giggle while she makes you think. Pure brilliance! Here's a sneak peak of the wisdom Mel drops in this episode: The best answer is a useful question! Even better if it is a sticky one! Get curious with your kids and ask them great questions. We are not defined by our past parenting mistakes! Make yourself a student and enter your teen's world to create connection and mutual respect. Respect is a great anger! Lessons learned from my wise mother during "the talk" at age 13. Parenting is about deep self work not some hack or tip. And, it's not about you (parents), it's about your kid! Contentment and self-regulation is needed within ourselves as parents before we model it to our kids. If you want more of Mel and we know you will, please connect with her on LinkedIn and visit her website where you can get a full dose of her amazing nonsensical parenting rhymes! Thank you for listening and if you love this episode of The Stop Parenting & Stop Coaching Podcast as much as we do, please share it with your parenting friends! And as Mel says "You've got this, you're not a screwup, build that connection with your kid, start small, but start!" -Nate & Steve https://www.linkedin.com/in/melschmitz/ https://www.melschmitz.com/ Check out the free Oreka app (look for the unicycle logo) on the App store
