Description

What is your parenting style?We know there are so many different styles of parenting, and there isn’t one universal style that works for everyone. Every child is different and has their own unique needs. Around here, we’ve found that gentle parenting is the most beneficial for our family.So what is gentle parenting, really? And why does it work? We believe that some forms of discipline promote fear, and fear never leads to good behavior. When kiddos feel safe, loved, and respected, they are more likely to behave. Positive reinforcement really goes a long way!In our episode today, we are sharing more about our parenting style, some tricks we’ve found that work for us, and some good old-fashioned encouragement to parents. At the end of the day, you know what’s best for you and your kiddos. God chose you to be their parents, and that means you are the best one for the job! Episode Highlights: Encouraging Moms to lean into gentle parenting.Discipline is not punishment.Kids don’t behave out of fear.There are different types of parenting.We aren’t defined by our past.It’s never too late to make a change.Kids need to be kids, and adults need to be adults.What example are we trying to set?Investing in our kids.The Positive Parenting Bench.Letting your kids know you’re hearing them.Links Mentioned in Episode/Find More on Ryan and Shannon:Follow Shannon on InstagramFollow Ryan on InstagramVisit Shannon’s WebsiteThis show has been produced by Adkins Media Co.

Welcome to Life's a Tripp. We are Shan and Ryan Tripp.We are just a couple of small-town kids who fell quickly in love and couldn’t wait to do this life together! We started having kids, were both working in healthcare and bought our first house right down the road from family… life was great - but something was missing.We were happy and blessed, but we also felt a little stuck. We realized we weren’t moving closer to our dreams for our future and family.So, we sold everything. The house, the cars, the clothes, all the stuff, everything - except for the kids - we kept the kids. As scary as it was to make this big change - we couldn’t stop thinking about it; we knew in our hearts this was what God wanted for our family. We packed our entire life into seven suitcases, grabbed our four small children by the hands, and jumped on a one-way flight to Hawaii. From there, our whole world opened up.We’ve experienced the highs and lows of parenting, marriage, running a business from home, finances, moving across the ocean, making new friends, and maybe doing things a bit differently to ultimately make the very most of our family life - and that’s what we want to share with you.We are so grateful you are here, joining us as we pull back the curtains to have some fun together and chat about what we’ve learned during our unusual journey and what we’re doing each day to make the most of it. It’s true what they say, “Life’s a Tripp,” - but despite the chaos, we want to show you that life can be lived on your terms. This is our story. How will you write yours?
