On this episode of the Fresh Start Family Show, Wendy chats with the incredible Destini Ann Davis. Destini is a working mom and parenting coach, author, TedX speaker and host of B*tch, You Doing a Good Job podcast. She advocates for peaceful parenting and positive discipline techniques that encourage both the parent and child to connect and communicate. 
Wendy and Destini dig into the intriguing topic of seeing boundaries as building fences (which help kids develop intrinsic control and allows the child to practice making decisions) vs using leashes with our kids (which are designed to control our kids and always backfires in the end).

Tune in to hear them discuss how using boundaries as fences:

creates freedom - allow our kids to experience life, be curious & learn through experience without going too far

creates safety for our kids to find who they are, express themselves & be curious

builds the life skills they need to be successful adults

builds connection with kids who know the fences are built to help them
