TPP 116a: Psychologist and Author Dr. Dan Peters on Parenting with Purpose and Intention
b'My guest this week is Dr. Dan Peters, a licensed psychologist, author, co-founder and Executive Director of the Summit Center, and the co-founder of the Parent Footprint Awareness Training. Dan\\u2019s mission is to foster more parenting with intention and purpose, and in today\\u2019s conversation, we explore just what that means, what it looks like, and how we can do the work on ourselves that can benefit our children and the family dynamic.\\nWe also take a deep look at Dan\\u2019s Parent Footprint Awareness Training, a unique, new, virtual online experience that supports parents in guiding our child\\u2019s future by becoming aware of our own parenting beliefs. I had a chance to go through the program already and found it to be powerful, quickly resulting in some game-changing aha moments for me. As you\\u2019ll hear from our chat, there is a very close synergy and alignment in Dr. Dan\\u2019s philosophy and approach with my mission at TILT Parenting \\u2014 I have a hunch you will find him just as inspiring as I do.\\nDr. Dan Peters is a licensed psychologist, author, co-founder and Executive Director of the Summit Center.
