Hunt Gather Parent Episode 4

This week we're discussing chapters six and seven from Hunt, Gather, Parent by Michaeleen Doucleff, Ph.D. Chapter six is called "Master Motivators: What's Better Than Praise?" We discuss the three ingredients needed to spark intrinsic motivation, and how praise might undermine it. We cover how simple acknowledgement can be a more powerful motivator than praise. We also cover Michaeleen's three steps for training a child to do anything: practice, model, and acknowledge. Chapter seven is called "Never in Anger" and introduces us to the Inuit, a tribe living near the Arctic Circle. Michaeleen describes them as calm, emotionally regulated, and as masters of executive functioning. We're excited to learn more about the Inuit in the coming chapters!
