#21. The Self-Driven Child - Interview with Dr. William Stixrud

March 01, 2022 • Karemi Alvarez

Join me in this eye-opening, informative and insightful conversation with clinical neuropsychologist and best-selling author, Dr. William Stixrud, about his book, The Self-Driven Child.

Get ready to be highly inspired, informed and to receive practical examples and advice for how you can begin in your day-to-day relationship with your children to help them develop intrinsic motivation so they can thrive in their lives, how you can shift from control to actual effective guidance, and how we can begin from the time our children are young to help them develop their ability to make wise decisions for their lives while guiding them in a way that is effective and not control-based. Dr. Stixrud offers examples for situations such as homework battles, extracurricular activities, anxiety in children, children with learning disabilities, and day-to-day family dynamics.
