Скачать или смотреть Why Multitasking Is Hurting Your Relationship With Your Kids

In this episode, I talk about why doing one thing at a time might be one of the most overlooked parenting skills today—especially when it comes to building a strong relationship with your kids.

We live in a world of constant distraction. Multitasking is normal, encouraged, and often praised—but when it comes to our kids, it quietly costs us connection. When a child comes to us, they don’t just want answers. They want us.

I share a simple real-life moment (burnt bacon and all) to show how split attention affects everything—from our work to our parenting—and why being fully present matters more than being “busy.” As a dad and counsellor, I unpack how listening deeply, slowing down, and giving your kids your full attention builds trust, emotional safety, and long-term connection.

This episode is for parents who genuinely love their kids but feel stretched thin, distracted, and pulled in too many directions—and want to do better without guilt or perfectionism.

If you want your kids to feel seen, heard, and safe with you, this conversation matters.

Key themes:
• Being present with your kids
• Multitasking vs meaningful connection
• Emotional safety in parenting
• Listening beyond words
• Building trust with your children

If this resonates, feel free to share it with another parent who needs the reminder.
