Excellent resource for dinnertime meetings!
The kids and I each have a journal and love journaling time. The family meeting masterclass has brought our family closer and the weekly emails are great for providing scripts to say during those highly emotional times.
The Big Life Journal company does amazing work—-I found their family meeting guidance to be on par with their other resources. The positive, fun-to-read guide was intense with ideas. The Facebook group helped me know other families struggle too, we are all working to build resilient people in our kids and ourselves.
I love how Big Life Journal has given us the opportunity and tools to start something that is going to be able to help grow in our togetherness (this was my husband’s word for our “why”). We want to foster a close loving relationship that will keep us bonded in healthy ways for the rest of their lives and having these family meetings is a great start to that. Communication, skills learning and loving each other intentionally now have a solid place in our family thanks to the family meetings. Thanks, Big Life Journal!
We’re still working on it but our communication is improving. My older kids are learning how to know what they’re feeling. I’m learning how to be more present.
