Use it as a sacred space.

Have everyone share how they are doing.

This is the place for kindness to be expressed. Everyone should feel a powerful sense of belonging.

COMMUNICATION WEEKLY GOALS WITH YOUR FAMILY

Make these visible where everyone can see them.

If it doesn't get written down it was never discussed.

Get it on paper.

We use a family whatsapp group. Here we constantly communicate with each other as a family.

Your kids will know how important your family is.

They will feel their ideas, their thoughts, their aspirations will become a treasure in your family culture.
