On today's episode of the Powerful Parenting Journey Podcast, Stephanie talks to Dave Lindenbaum, marketer and father of three beautiful daughters, ranging in age from four months to seven years. During the episode, Dave reveals that in the past, he believed that business was the most powerful personal development tool, but he now realized that in fact being a parent is an even more powerful tool for growth. Even a mere decade previously, he never thought he would be a father, let alone a father of three girls. He describes the challenge he faced when his first daughter was born, where the illusion we often see in films of parents seeing their newborn and feeling 'love at first sight' didn't happen for him. He struggled at first to comprehend the sacrifices that come with having a baby. However, Dave also shares how he now has difficulty imagining life without his children.
Dave describes the process of moving his family from New York to Israel during the pandemic, and the challenges of balancing work and family life.
Stephanie and Dave also discuss love languages and the importance of understanding your children's version of them. He explains how one child may prefer to be touched while another might be little squeamish and physical contact. Being observant and aware of the way each child's love language manifests is a powerful tool for building connection.
Join Stephanie and Dave for this fascinating conversation!
