What age should you begin equipping your kids with self-confidence habits?  Start now! Toddlers are not too young to begin developing habits that will help them be more confident. Have you ever wondered how to instill the habits of confidence in your kids from an early age? Did you know that when your kids display confidence that other people have more confidence in them - which means they get their messages across and achieve their goals more often? But how do we actually equip our kids with the right communication skills and confidence habits they need to enhance their life? Today in episode 203 of the Practically Speaking MOM Podcast, I share my personal strategies for raising self-assured kids! It's an episode full of SIMPLE techniques for every mom in the many stages of raising your kids and helping prepare them for life. I've got examples for you from what manners to practice with toddlers to conversations with teens on how to bring up difficult issues with someone. These are simple techniques to impact your kids' habits in how they treat one another, the messages they send through eye contact and posture.  We've got strategies for helping your kids to rise above timidity, there's so much here today so be sure to listen through to the end.  

This is episode 4 in our Confident Kids/Confident Teens series. The first three episodes were discussions between me, Val Harrison, The Practically Speaking MOM and three of my kids Abby, Andrew, and Emma. Those were #175, 201, and 202, you can find links in the shownotes.  

Today is jam packed with practical help in what I did with my own seven kids BEFORE teaching them to step out of their comfort zone and become open to opportunities, along with sharing some of the skills I have taught to many students from my speech and communication classes from the past 20 plus years.

Today is like a communication 101 guide that also introduces you to the many types of confidence from mental confidence to spiritual confidence to body confidence and more. 

We will also look at the significance of eye contact in how it plays a pivotal role in conveying value and attention during an interaction. Hop in and join us, as we explore the art of raising self-assured kids.
