114. Smart Consequences: Breaking the Code on What works and What Doesn’t.

Ever felt like the consequences you're using just aren't working?

Maybe you've taken away screen time, treats, or even big events—only to see the same behavior again. It can feel frustrating and confusing when nothing seems to make a difference.

In this episode, we take a closer look at why some consequences fall flat, and how small, thoughtful changes can lead to big results. You’ll hear Sean’s story—how he moved from taking away a big event to finding calmer, more connected ways to guide his child’s behavior.

After listening, you’ll walk away with:
• Three common mistakes that can make consequences less effective
• A simple way to use small, step-by-step consequences that help kids learn
• Ideas for keeping limits firm while still showing care and connection

This conversation gently unpacks how effective consequences can support your child’s growth while also keeping your relationship strong. It’s not about punishment—it’s about teaching, guiding, and growing together.
