Celebrating our kids for who they are with Nicole Zasowski

Happy Fourth of July!

This week we have Nicole Zasowski on The Christian Parenting Podcast and we are talking all about celebration in our families and our parenting. Nicole is a mom of three, a licensed marriage and family therapist, and author of the books From Lost to Found and What if it’s Wonderful?

We so often tie celebration and joy to accomplishment or milestones. But what if that is not the way it is supposed to be? Nicole challenges our typical idea of celebration and helps us understand it as a discipline, which is actually really liberating, especially as a mom.

One thing we touch on is how and when to celebrate our kids. I’m working on this in my own home – I’m trying to be intentional to encourage my kids in a way that will build them up for who God made them to be, not what they accomplish. It can be hard to do because we naturally want to emphasize the amazing things that our kids do! And that’s good, we should, but Nicole gives us some great examples of helpful things we can say to our kids to celebrate them for who they are.

As a bonus for our listeners, Nicole created an adorable handout of 8 prompts to use to celebrate personhood over performance! Just click here to download your copy!

You will love what she has to say.
