What's inside

  • Positioning Yourself in the Room
    Where you physically stand matters as much as what you say. Learn how to position your body so you're observing and coaching, not leading or following the child yourself.
  • Whisper Coaching
    The real-time skill of coaching a parent a half-step ahead of what's happening, not reacting after the fact. Learn exactly what this sounds like, and how to build the timing.
  • Letting the Interaction Breathe
    Not every moment needs a cue. Learn when overcoaching interrupts the very connection you're trying to build, and when to stay quiet.
  • Coaching in the Lull
    The natural pause in an interaction is often the most valuable coaching moment of the whole session. Learn how to use it.
  • Guiding Reflection, Not Delivering a Verdict
    Learn how to ask questions that help a parent discover their own insight, rather than handing them a correction.
  • Your Own Reflection as the Coach
    The parent isn't the only one who needs self-awareness in this dynamic. Learn to notice your own instinct to jump in, and what that instinct is actually telling you.
