The Principles and Impact of Simplicity Parenting In a Crisis and Beyond

My guest this week is Kim John Payne, a consultant, and trainer to over 230 U.S. independent and public schools. Formerly serving as a school counselor, adult educator, consultant, researcher, and educator for nearly 30 years, Kim regularly gives key-note addresses at international conferences for educators, parents, and therapists and runs workshops and training sessions around the world. In each role, he has been helping children, adolescents and families explore issues such as social difficulties with siblings and classmates, attention and behavioral issues at home and school emotional issues such as defiance, aggression, addiction, and low self-esteem. As a partner of the Alliance for Childhood in Washington D.C, he has consulted for educational associations around the world and has run a private family counseling practice for more than 15 years. 

In this episode, Kim and I discuss the principles and impact of simplicity parenting to help lessen stress and overwhelm within families. While many of us are experiencing new lifestyles and schedules at home it is extremely important to maintain or find a new working rhythm to your family’s day-to-day routine. By dialing down our normal busyness we have the opportunity to evaluate daily aggravators that induce stress and anxiety in our children, especially those struggling with behavioral and neurodevelopmental disorders. Kim provides clear, effective and manageable ways parents can begin to approach and implement simplicity parenting to find an optimal daily rhythm for their unique family needs.
