the Perks of leadership
Talking back, whining, attitude … these are all signs that we need to work on our leadership skills.
This isn’t about being a parenting authority; parenting leaders understand the importance of giving respect to their kids in order to get it in return.
I always say a kid’s love language is fun. Dealing with bad behaviour is a tiny part of all of this.
The foundation of leadership parenting is built by having fun with your kids. It’s about learning how to play and connect with your kids in their world.
Let’s be honest, if you’re constantly spending your time trying to address the constant stream of bad behaviour, where is the space for connection?
Parenting leaders deal with the bad behaviour, but it’s temporary, and then you can go right back to connection.

Testimonials
“You made the toughest job my best job in the world. I was at a point when I just wanted my kid to either go to daycare or outside so I can have time without him before I saw your course and now I love him around me and wanna play with him more as I am enjoying parenting”
Priyanka
BratBusters Bootcamp (3-12)
“Lisa warned us that our teenager would get worse before she got better but just to stay calm and consistent.
It wasn’t easy but we did it and are happy to say that we are now enjoying our children and are confident parents.”
LILY
Private Coaching
“These courses are really good. They aren’t long or boring and you don’t finish the course feeling like a bad parent.
The humour and honest advice is great.
I’ve listened to so many of the videos and use lots of the advice at home.”
Courtney
Bedtime Battles Mini Course
Calm leadership parenting empowers parents to give respect to your children in order to get respect in return. Discipline is a tiny part of this; it’s about connecting with your kids.
This approach emphasizes the importance of treating children as individuals with their own thoughts, feelings, and needs, and encourages you to communicate with your children in a calm and respectful manner in their world.
At this time, besides private coaching, Lisa answers parenting questions in the following ways.
Stories: Questions can be submitted through the question box in Lisa’s Monday story on Instagram or Facebook, or in the comments on the Monday story on TikTok. On Wednesdays, she selects a few to answer in her stories.
Live Q&A: During social media live sessions (which are unscheduled), questions can be submitted by commenting. Lisa does her best to answer as many parenting questions as possible.
