Destini Ann Davis
About this listen
A different kind of parenting book that helps parents improve themselves first, so they can then be better parents to their kids.
It's time for a fresh approach to parenting!
Too many parenting books are heavy on the clinical advice, but way too light on practical strategies and everyday inspiration. Isn't it time for a parenting book that is both practical and inspirational? Destini Ann Davis is a working mom who has read dozens of parenting books and made all the typical parenting mistakes before realizing that in order to have a peaceful, positive relationship with her kids, she first needed to have a peaceful, positive relationship with herself. Very Intentional Parenting features a fresh, down-to-earth approach from someone you can relate to. Destini Ann offers up real life strategies for tackling many of today's most challenging parenting scenarios using positive discipline techniques, with examples from her own experience with raising two girls. She'll encourage you; she'll coach you; and she'll help you become your best self and a better parent. If you're a parent looking for a different kind of parenting book, you've come to the right place.
Here's what you'll find inside:
- A fresh, energetic take on parenting in today's world.
- Practical tips for creating open and constructive dialogue with your kids.
- Refreshing insight on fixing yourself first and healing your own wounds, so you can then avoid bringing that baggage into your child's world.
- Relatable advice for dealing with negative influences, whether it be from family, friends, school, or community.

Instead of being merely the receiver of the parents' psychological and spiritual legacy, children function as ushers of the parents' development. Parents unwittingly pass on an inheritance of psychological pain and emotional shallowness. To handle the behavior that results, traditional books on parenting abound with clever techniques for control and quick fixes for dysfunction. In Dr. Shefali Tsabary's conscious approach to parenting, however, children serve as mirrors of their parents' forgotten self.

Story
Many of us live and operate from a mind-set of lack, scarcity, and limitation. We focus on what we don’t have - financial security, confidence, an intimate relationship - which keeps us feeling insecure and inadequate. We think “if only I could have those things, I could be happy”. But measuring wealth by money or material possessions leaves us feeling drained and spiritually empty. Constantly striving for more often means our ego is driving our thoughts, actions, and reactions, which prevents us from reaching something greater.

That’s a stadium full of people whom each of us affects in ways positive or negative, sometimes without us realizing. What if we paid attention to this fact? Would we live differently? Would we lead differently? Would we put down our phones and be more present with the people in front of us?
