About this listen
🎙️ Episode 15: Accountability & Respect
This week, we’re diving into two words that carry a lot of weight—and often get misunderstood in parenting: accountability and respect.
We unpack what these concepts really mean in a family setting (hint: it’s not about obedience), and how we’re trying to model them at home—imperfectly, but intentionally.
From birth stories to playground conflicts, we talk about:
- Why impact matters more than intent
- What Heart Repair looks like in real life (and how it’s based on Nonviolent Communication)
- How peer orientation pulled Greg away from his family too early
- And why “respect” might need a serious rebrand
We’re also sharing an experiment we’re trying with our kids—a Family Heart Repair Journal—to help build the muscles for empathy, reflection, and repair.
This one’s about power, connection, and the tools kids need to own their actions and stay close.
Resources Mentioned:
- The Wholehearted Parenting Manifesto – Brené Brown
- Nonviolent Communication – Marshall Rosenberg
- Conscious Discipline – Dr. Becky Bailey
- The Road Less Traveled – M. Scott Peck (concept of “bracketing”)
