How I Met Dayna Abraham…

Hey there, my name is Jackie and I’m the founder of HomeSchool ThinkTank. Before I share more about how Dayna helps parents, I’d like to explain how I met her. I happened to be signed up for an online course where she was also a student. At the end of the course, I had the opportunity to go to a live event & learn more. While I hadn’t met Dayna in the course, I learned about her when she shared her experiences as a featured student and speaker.

Within minutes, I knew I had some parenting challenges in common with her. Like Dayna, I have an out-of-the-box kiddo. While parenting my oldest has been fairly simple, parenting my youngest has humbled me for years.

When I first saw Dayna speak on stage, I had recently launched the HomeSchool ThinkTank Parenting Podcast. By the time Dayna had completed her speech, I knew that I wanted to interview her on my podcast. I was literally messaging Dayna within minutes of the moment she left the stage.

Out Of The Box Parenting Tips

If parenting feels hard, then it’s time to enjoy parenting again.

Does your child ever…

• Ignore you? 
• Talk back to you anytime you ask them to do something?
• Have epic meltdowns that ‘come out of nowhere’ and leave you embarrassed in the grocery store parking lot?

If you’ve answered, “Yes!” to any of the questions above, then this free workshop might be able to help you.

Hands down, this is the best free series if you want to stop fighting with your kids, and start enjoying your time together instead.

Simply put, it teaches you a simple but powerful way to stop any unwanted behaviors… BEFORE they start.

It doesn’t matter if you’re dealing with a child who:

• Won’t sit still long enough to follow directions.
• Goes from 0-100 in the blink of an eye.
• Can’t seem to make new friends.
• Refuses to eat anything but bland, processed foods.
• Has to be reminded 5, 10, 15 times to do even basic chores

You’ll learn to reduce, and even eliminate the toughest behaviors, with a step-by-step framework that takes you and your family from lost and overwhelmed to calm and in control without resorting to bribes, punishments, or nagging.
