Y'all, the facial expressions in this one are priceless - if you aren't already, go watch this episode on YouTube lol! I swear it's worth it.
Praising your kids is GOOD, right? It's positive reinforcement, it's connection, it's showing your kids you're proud of them and you get to celebrate together! Yes. And no. Not all praise is created equal when it comes to parenting.
There is praise that builds outer-reward/response systems that turn our kids into people pleasers.
And there is praise that builds a child's INNER reward system which results in self-confidence, self-trust, worthiness and resilience to failure.
Consciously praising our kids in a way that puts the choice, desire and power back in THEIR hands is KEY. Listen up to learn more and see how these SUPER SIMPLE shifts can benefit all of the relationships in your life.

Episode Resources:
The High 5 Study: "Ambiguous praise, similar to verbal effort praise, produced higher persistence and self-evaluations, and fewer fixations on error after failure compared to verbal trait praise. Interestingly, gestures produced the highest self-evaluations. Thus, praise without explicit attributions motivated as well or better than praise explicitly focused on effort, which may suggest that children interpret ambiguous praise in the most beneficial manner." - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4145712/
