Emotionally Intelligent Parenting with Stephanie Pinto

In this episode I dive a bit deeper into the world of Emotional Intelligence, and why it encompasses so much more than you think.It's not only empathy, it's not simply understanding feelings, but in fact, 26 individual competencies make EI what it truly is. Clear communication, self-awareness, resilience, integrity, teamwork, and more. It's fascinating!So in this mini masterclass, I'll walk you through the deeper layers of EI, what it looks like to have strong EI and lack EI, the difference between "EI" and "EQ" and of course what those specific 26 skill areas are.Get ready for some juicy Emotional Intelligence work with me!Steph.***If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

A Punishment-Free Home With Emotional Intelligence - Ooh, is it possible??I posted a 10-second reel on my Instagram recently about this, and it's just hit 733k views. So this was a big one that resonated with a LOT of people (for good and bad reasons).I'll post the link to the reel below so you can check it out, but I describe it in this episode and break down some of the messages behind emotionally intelligent parenting, punishment-free home, discipline, and more. I also speak about the brilliant work and research into parenting and emotional intelligence, that's come from the Gottman Institute. Their work is exceptional and so validating to this style of parenting.Find the reel I refer to here: https://www.instagram.com/p/C1BUD4pSLmt/I'm on Instagram as @emotionally.intelligent.parent and the reel was posted on 19 December 2023.Also I mentioned Dan Franco's podcast and Insta, find him at @adadliftingdads Don't forget to also check out the Gottman Institue at www.gottman.comTo enquire about coaching or book me for a speaking engagement or presentation, contact hello@stephaniepinto.comSteph.***If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

So your husband's doing it all wrong? (Sorry, couldn't help it!!) Having different approaches at home can be hard. But I'm about to shift your perspective in a big way.In this episode, I share about the challenges and frustrations of parenting with emotional intelligence when your co-parent isn't on board. Perhaps they parent differently or are actively going against your method. Who's right? How do we get them to see our way? Is that even fair?The powerful quote I mentioned in the episode is from Dr Dona Matthews. She's a wonderful author, developmental psychologist and speaker, find her work at www.donamatthews.comI'd love to hear your thoughts. Are you and your co-parent struggling or finding a balance?

How do you feel about your kids watching YouTube? If you're unsure and really don't know whether it's safe or good quality viewing for them, then you need to listen to this episode! If you're also really concerned about YouTube and the content your kids are watching, but don't feel confident removing it from your home, and how to speak to your kids about it, then this really is a must-listen.I am certainly not advocating for every family to ban YouTube from their family - you may feel comfortable with it and that's OKAY too! I do however share some interesting (well, somewhat concerning) insights into what's underneath the content our kids are viewing and why we decided to remove it from our home. I also go into detail about how our kids reacted, and how we dealt with their emotions. It's been 2 weeks and we've not had a single complaint/beg/meltdown over it.Steph.***If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

Okay, proud mum (and parent coach) moment!Let me share a story with you about how we VERY nearly had a Christmas meltdown when packing away the tree with our youngest. Emotional Intelligence and communication skills are an UNSTOPPABLE combo, trust me. These two skills have genuinely saved my bacon countless times, and my kids and I are better for it. (And actually so is my marriage!)We aren't perfect but we have speed bumps as opposed to car crashes throughout our days. And some days we even have no bumps. I don't say this to say "Look how easy parenting is" because, no. We work hard at it. We've learnt a LOT. We continue to learn and grow. But I can hand-on-heart say our home is so much calmer and such a nicer place to be now that we parent with emotional intelligence.Home is our haven. And I want that for you. Enjoy this episode, and please take away something from it that helps you - and if you can let me know I'd love that too!

Ok this is a heart-strings pulling kind of conversation. Many of us don't have a TONNE of memories from our childhood, and some of us feel like we've forgotten 95% of it.But you know what? You'll still know - if you think about it - what you wish you did or didn't have to experience. And guess what, that's very likely exactly what your kids want to be hearing from you right now. Amazing right? Why do we overthink it?!I share a number of messages that people in my Facebook community (Let's Raise Emotionally Intelligent Kids) put down as the things they wish they heard. And I show you the top 2 most common phrases parents didn't hear enough (one really surprised me and now I've added it to my vocab for good).Enjoy!***If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

Meltdowns are a part of life. Not only for kids, but us adults too! It's emotional dysregulation and humanness at its finest and although they're not something to fix, it's so valuable to know how to support your child through them, whilst keeping yourself in check.I love that learning Emotional Intelligence has helped me personally both anticipate challenging moments with my kids and navigate through them with ease and confidence. I want this for you so much! It IS possible and even more than that, I think it's our duty as parents. Your child needs you to coach them through big emotional moments, not leave them to their own devices. Let me show you how I dealt with a meltdown in my own house, and how we were all able to get back on track with our day positively.***If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

In this episode, I delve into the fascinating world of emotions and how often we misunderstand them. You might think you're good at reading how others feel, but actually you very often get it wrong. For example, a simple smile can signify a range of emotions, from happiness to anxiety or even anger.These misunderstandings can lead to conflicts, disagreements, breakdowns and even breakups. To improve your ability to understand emotions, you need to become more mindful and take a moment to reflect on your own habits.I also share about why we really need to give people the benefit of the doubt and simply ask them how they're feeling (so we don't make these wrong assumptions). Join me to explore the world of emotions and discover how avoiding these common mistakes can enhance your emotional intelligence and deepen your relationships._ _ _If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.
