Listeners will gain fresh insights on:

  • Why the "strong-willed" label can be problematic and miss underlying needs.
  • How sensitivity, power dynamics, and leadership struggles contribute to defiance.
  • Practical strategies for addressing stubborn behaviour through curiosity and connection.
  • Ways to provide healthy control and meet children's needs for autonomy.
  • The importance of consistent, empathetic leadership as a parent.

Whether you have a so-called "strong-willed child" or simply want to better understand challenging behaviour, this episode offers a compassionate new perspective and actionable tips to transform your relationship with your child.
