#28: Nurturing with Boundaries: Setting and Maintaining Healthy Limits for Your Child with Andy Goldstrom

09/13/23 • 34 min

Setting and maintaining healthy boundaries with your child is an act of love and care. It provides them with the structure they need to thrive and develop into confident, responsible, and empathetic individuals.
Knowing the rules and consequences helps them feel safe and understand the world around them. They learn that their actions have consequences and that they are responsible for their choices.
Children who grow up respecting boundaries are more likely to develop empathy, communication skills, and the ability to negotiate and compromise.

While it may seem like a difficult task, establishing boundaries in a loving and consistent manner is essential for your child's development and well-being.
My guest Andy shares a few tips on how to set and maintain healthy limits and get your children actively involved in the process.

Andy Goldstrom is a successful business entrepreneur turned parent coach. When his daughter experienced severe depression and anxiety Andy and his wife didn't know where to turn and get direction and support. Helping their young girl was a trying and lonely experience. Because of that he decided to become a certified parent coach and leverage his personal experience to be there for other struggling parents.
Andy helps families communicate better and get in tune with their kids. He also focuses on uniting parenting approaches and setting and maintaining boundaries with kids so they don't get in trouble in the first place.

Send us a text

Encouraging children to try new things, conquer their fears, and embrace the unknown is a vital aspect of their personal development. Most kids are not born courageous, it's up to us to nurture these qualities in them and help them become brave and adventurous souls.
My guest Nancy Pickard shares some practical tips you can incorporate in your parenting approach to inspire your children to be brave and willing to try new things without worrying too much about the end result. Her favorite question to ask the kids is:
How have you been brave today? What have you done that you were afraid to do and you did it anyway?
After being a stay at home mom during her kids' childhood Nancy found her calling in coaching. Among many other certifications, she is an Empowered Parent Coach and a Courage Coach. Coaching others to step out of fear and into bigger versions of themselves is her passion. Nancy is the author of "Bigger, Better, Braver" - a self-help book that inspires people to get out of their comfort zone and live a bigger life.
