S08|22 - Connection for Dads with Tal Eyre
06/10/24 • 36 min
Dads can connect to their kids in an amazing way- and teach, lead and guide through that connection. Join Tal Eyre and I on the podcast this week as we talk about his new book (Dad Mode), self-connection, connection with kids and more.
In December 2011, Anita and Tal welcomed their daughter, Annina, into their family, and Dad Mode was officially activated. Tal went on to earn a Master of Applied Positive Psychology (MAPP) degree at the University of Pennsylvania and then applied his learnings with his family and as a Swiss-based leader in global business development. Through it all, Tal’s highest priority has remained his family and Dad Mode reveals some of his key learnings along the way. Tal and his family live in the Swiss Alps.
Today you’ll hear:
- Self-connection and shadow work, and how they are at the center of increasing our connection with kids
- The 4 parenting styles, and how connection helps you maintain healthy relationships
- Teaching our children through our own failures and imperfections (not through never messing up)
- Crystal defines what connection-based parenting means to her, and why it’s so important
- Dropping permissiveness, yelling and coercion and parenting with love, while maintaining boundaries

Join the re-parenting movement, at my next retreat, The Inward Journey: www.coachcrystal.ca/the-retreat
Parent School: Discover your own unique path, with confidence... raising emotionally intelligent children that leave your home knowing that you truly, deeply care for them... that you aways have, and you always will. Isn’t that we all want deep down? That is my goal for me, and for you... and for the future generation for children we are raising. To be seen. To be heard. To be valued. To feel loved. To feel supported. To feel known. To welcome them to be themselves- fully and completely. That is The Work. I am here for it. Welcome.
Join me for the LAST LIVE round of Parent School:
- shame resiliency: how to feel shame and move through it, what triggers us and why, and how to move through heaviness and use it for growth.
- emotional regulation: what co-regulation is and how to support our children from our energy- not our words (not scripts and mantras, this work is much deeper than that), how to support ourselves and our kids through big emotions.
- the power of our thoughts and beliefs: how to separate who we are from what we think, how to create the exact relationship we want through the power of our mind
- connection-based parenting: why it’s the way of the future, how to parent in a relationship-first manner, developing deep and lasting connections that last a lifetime.
- 6 modules covering all these topics, and more. 2 group coaching calls to get support in your individual family situations. (add-on available for your partner to join).

S08|21 - Suicide Prevention
Suicide has deeply impacted my family circle over the years, as it has so many of you around the world. Today I share some ways we can work on preventing suicide in our homes and communities though talking more openly about mental health in clear and frank ways- and become willing to open ourselves up to potentially awkward (but SO important) conversations.
Note: be tender with yourself if this episode is triggering for you, come back to it later if you need to... and KNOW that if someone in your circle has passed away due to suicide that it was NEVER your fault, and when we talk about prevention it’s not for situations in the past, but how we can support others in the future.

S08|23 - Growth Mindset, Fixed Mindset, and Toxic Achievement Culture
Sometimes the best prize of all isn’t a trophy. In a culture where outcome production and tangible results are celebrated, how do we teach our kids to accept all parts of themselves- mistakes, bumps in the road, big emotions, and all? Join this conversation with Chasta Hamilton and me, as we discuss this topic and her new children’s book “The Trophy Trap”.
Orphaned as a child, Chasta found comfort in the creativity, play, and catharsis of the performing arts. This led to a life as an arts entrepreneur, where she believes that everyone has the power to reach their fullest potential and disrupt the status quo in an empowering and inspiring way. She’s a founder and CEO as well as a bestselling author (Trash the Trophies and Handle the Horrible) and speaker (TEDx: “You Weren’t Built to Break”).
Today you’ll hear:
- How we often teach growth mindset (and other socioemotional skills) in performative and ineffective ways, and how we can change things.
- Less talk about the “outcome” and more about the process (ie. Allowing failure and discussing it, without the shame).
- How to create a culture of leaders and changemakers through allowing more vulnerability, authenticity, and celebrating of our children’s inner voice.
- Growing self-awareness in our kids (and letting the next generation of youth change the world for the better).
