Mastermind Parenting Podcast
Randi Rubenstein
Welcome to Randi Rubenstein’s Mastermind Parenting Podcast. So, the big question is this - How do parents like us know that we aren’t messing up the biggest role of our lives, especially when we happen to have a strong-willed kiddo that is constantly pushing our buttons? We’ve all heard that kids don’t come with a manual, so how can we know for sure that we are saying the right things or that we’re getting this parenting thing right. On this podcast for parents of toddlers to teens, we’ll be giving you real tools you can use right away so that your kids will feel like they can talk to you about absolutely anything and everything. At Mastermind Parenting, we believe when your thoughts grow, the conversations in your home flow. This podcast will help you make a crucial shift in your home from the old lecturing style to convos that feel collaborative, connecting and most importantly…PRODUCTIVE.

MMP158: The Roadmap for: How to Have a Productive Convo with a Teacher
In this episode I’m sharing a tangible roadmap for how to talk to your kid’s teacher when there is a problem at school. Start by seeing the teacher’s perspective. Teachers get a lot of emails. Keep yours short and sweet. Acknowledge and respect their time. I know you are juggling a lot and your time is valuable. I’m concerned about _____ and would like to get your thoughts and/or set a time that works for you to discuss ways to support my kid at school. Listen more than you talk. Hear from the teacher. Ask what and how questions to empower the teacher in supporting your child. Got a question you'd like Randi to answer? Leave us a message at: https://telb.ee/ynpys.

Bonus Episode: Could Yoga be the Tool For Bringing Peace to your Life and Family?
In this bonus episode, I’m having a conversation with Nancy Perry, co-owner of Big Power Yoga in Houston, Live Alive Adventures and Out Here Yoga in Colorado. She’s a magical presence and I think you guys will learn a few things and maybe even change your mind about becoming a yogi yourself. Seriously, yoga has been the most practical method of trauma healing for me and it’s the ultimate self care regimen in my opinion. You deserve to feel better.

Seth and I had a candid convo about life before he was “drinking the Mastermind Parenting koolaid” and what actually helped him and his wife, Sarah, begin to parent on the same page. We talked about what got him to buy into the process and truly become part of the solution rather than accidentally adding to the tension in the family. We cover male privilege, explosive moments and how to support your partner when he/she is dysregulated and more!
