## Resource

Head to cozyearth.com and use code VANTALK for an exclusive 20% off! In this episode of Van Talk, we’re talking about the everyday work of building trust and confidence with your kids. From breaking habits to consistently parenting through conflict, we share why encouragement and cheerleading never really stop, no matter how old your kids are.We also talk about intentionally practicing life skills with kids, things like greeting people, shaking hands, making eye contact, and confidently saying “nice to meet you.” At the same time, we believe kids should have autonomy over their bodies and shouldn’t be forced to hug people if they don’t want to. The conversation also gets practical. We share some of the little systems that help us survive the day, from creating different “stations” around the house for changing scenery to food rewards, potty training outings, and the experiences we’ve had navigating potty training overall.
