Love-Based Parenting Is Firm, Honest, and Harder Than Yelling Ever Was

Episode Description

Bryan Post has spent 30 years working with families in crisis. He's a father of seven, a former foster and adopted child himself, and the author of 20 books — including From Fear to Love, which has sold over a million copies.

In this conversation, Bryan breaks down why most of what we call "bad behavior" in our kids is actually stress — and why the most powerful thing a dad can do isn't fix, coach, or correct. It's slow down and breathe.

What you'll learn: 

— How a parent's energy directly shapes a child's anxiety 

— Why love-based parenting isn't permissive (it's actually harder) 

— The difference between coaching your kid and connecting with them 

— How to hold space when your child is melting down without losing yourself 

— Why Bryan says grief is the most overlooked tool in a father's life

If you're a dad who wants to lead with love instead of fear, this one's for you.
