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.

MMP118: A Dad’s Perspective and Parenting on the Same Page
In this episode, we hear from a dad in the Mastermind. You guys, I LOVE this man. I know many of you struggle with getting your man on the “Mastermind” train. I feel like this dad says the things we need for all the reluctant husbands to hear. They might not YET understand that parenting is NOT women’s work. They might still be acting like privileged men and NO, don’t tell them that. My point is that I hear your frustration. I feel it. I wanna slap some sense into all the dads out there that aren’t listening and learning with us. And for now, just get your guy to listen to the episode. Put an airpod in his ear while you guys watch the kids play outside.

MMP117: Missing the Milestones & Dealing with Pandemic Disappointments
In this episode, I talk about my kid’s graduations. Yup. 3 kids and 3 big 2020 milestone events. Graduation from middle school, high school and college. The virtual grad ceremonies and car parades are just not the same as the real thing. Sigh. Like me, I know many of you are watching your kids go through LOTS of disappointments right now. We hate when the people are disappointed. I think many of us are so uncomfortable at the thought of our kids experiencing disappointment that we tend to fixate and accidentally make it into a bigger deal. The world is experiencing lots of things right now that leave us reeling in upset, disappointment and feeling out of control. We are in a period of collective vulnerability...AND an opportunity for collective resilience building. It’s true that the 2020 graduates will forever be known as the “2020 Graduates”. AND maybe they will wear that label with a resilient badge of honor rather than fondling a “life isn’t fair” story. This week’s episode will help you to foster the story of resilience for your kids.

MMP116: What if You Don’t Enjoy Spending Quality Time with Your Strong Willed Kiddo?
In this episode, you’ll hear a clip I made for my newest Mastermind members about the most important beginning tool I teach, P.E.T. Present. Engaged. Time. This is where we have to start with all kids who are consistently defiant and defensive. Even though many parents want to immediately jump to the consequences to “fix” their child’s behavior, it’ll never work. We must connect before we correct. PET is how we connect. I talk about building connecting moments into all the caregiving things you’re already doing. You’re gonna love this one. Enjoy! Get my problem-solving one-sheet!

MMP111: The Corona Connection: A Time to Face What We’ve been Avoiding?
This episode is from a private video I made for the Mastermind where I discuss why I believe this crazy situation is upon us and what the real solution involves. What does it mean to be a grown-up? How do WE show up as the calm and clear grown-ups? When it feels like the world is in desperate need of nurturing and healing, how can we aid that effort by getting back to the basics in our own homes?
