To everyone who has been here a while, thank you for showing up.

Thank you for making the small changes you do to create more connection in your relationships, and the world.

It makes me especially happy when you tell me about those transformations.

SO... I want to give something back!

My friends at @bwrubysinn are joining with me to offer one family (1 double queen room) a TWO NIGHT STAY AT BEAUTIFUL BRYCE CANYON anytime before December 31, 2020.

To enter, share a post on your feed describing a specific transformation that has happened in any relationship because of a principle you practice from this feed or in a workshop you attended with me. Small moments or large transformations welcome.

Happy a Father’s Day to every dad (and especially mine) who dares to dream, who leads with love, who risks to reach higher, and who winds the kids up right before bedtime. #amiright? You’re just the way we like you. And yes—That’s my dad!🤩

A few weeks ago, Mark and I were lucky enough to record a podcast with @mormonmarriages.

We got to share the way we met, who we are, and the dreams we’re chasing that define us.

We are a “2nd chance couple”. We’ve been through a lot, apart and together. And we felt lucky to share some pieces of our journey with @growthmarriage and @angilynbagley. 📸:@lauren.dautel

My parents were not perfect, but they were united.

And that made all the difference.

When we're united, we are committed to figuring out the answers we don't know, to finding the compromise, to repairing and forgiving.

A child who sees their imperfect parents committed to working together toward a common goal of love is lucky indeed.

Have you considered the common goals and values you share, and have you clarified and written them down together?

Your kids will feel a difference.

Tickets are live for your “post summer” recovery in the mountains of Utah!

I will be leading discussion and exercises to become a more trusted coach for your children.

Kristin will be leading discussions about becoming the sex education expert in your home.

We will hike and laugh and learn with you.

10 VIP tickets include small group, casual pre and post events. (And don’t delay—they are already selling.) Come with us to the mountains!

For those who asked—and for the rest of you too, here’s my take on how how to teach grit and resilience (regarding the green Carol Dweck quote a few posts ago): Focus on effort, not results

Exemplify, in small ways, your own failure/repair cycle and what you learn from it. (Don’t try to be a “perfect parent”!) Teach children how the brain grows and gets smarter —by repeatedly TRYING, and not by being right all the time.

While many of you have been on the end-of-the-school-year hamster wheel, I have been full to the brim with family, and memory making, and learning.

I’ve cared for small children by myself for days on end, spent a weekend with my grown adult children, then another week with my children and grandchildren, then a small swath of time learning solo in a coaching retreat across the country from where I live.

It has been a rich month of growth and reflection.

In a way, it was symbolic of moving from early motherhood to adult children to older age. There are parts to savor and celebrate in every phase.

Also, they all made me a little bit sleepy. 📸 @lauren.dautel
