What Ancient Cultures Can Teach Us About the Lost Art of Raising Happy, Helpful Little Humans
Ever wondered if ancient parenting methods could bring more harmony to your home? Join us as we uncover the secrets of the Mayans, Inuit, and Hadzabe in Dr. Michaelene Ducliffe's "Hunt Gather Parent" on this week's episode of Family Book Club. Emily Blue and Alex Kirby share their takeaways on viewing the family as a cohesive team and involving kids in daily tasks. Emily’s chaotic trip to the doctor with her kids becomes a lens through which we examine the importance of perspective and adaptability in modern parenting.
We also look into the powerful self-determination theory in our discussion, focusing on how connectedness, autonomy, and competency can significantly boost children's motivation and performance. From parenting to personal growth and business, we explore how these principles apply beyond the home, especially reflecting on the impact of COVID on workplace motivation. You'll also get a glimpse into the entrepreneurial journey driven by intrinsic motivation and hear some fun career advice for Rosie, the adventurous toddler whose globe-trotting inspired a bestselling book.
