What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
A lot of people get stuck because they think I need to get everything perfect before I start.
That happens to me all the time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It doesn't work. Can you imagine if Jimi Hendrix was like, Oh, I need to be a great guitar player before as anybody ever sees me? No, he had to go out and not be great in order to get good. Yeah, it's
like first become it's like step one, become greatest guitar player of all time. Step two, go on tour.
And it does not work like that.
Yeah, it's like step one, be the best ever. Step two, do things. It's Step one, be okay. Do things, be better.
Get better. Exactly. Exactly.
Welcome to the Tilt Parenting Podcast, a podcast featuring interviews and conversations aimed at inspiring, informing, and supporting parents raising differently wired kids. I'm your host, Debbie Reaver, and I'm excited to be bringing back to the show a listener favorite for two back-to-back episodes. Renegade Teacher Turned Executive Functioning Coach and Education Coach Seth Perler. Seth and I are trying something new for these two episodes. We are going to be tackling a subject that likely impacts every single member of our community, and that topic is resistance. Resistance is a big and complicated subject and it's something I know many of us as parents not only see in our kids, but are concerned about how to help our kids push through that resistance so they can develop skills and grit and accomplish the things they'll need to do in order to develop into thriving adults.
So we want to cover this topic in a significant way, so here is the plan. The first of these two conversations, the episode you're listening to right now, is designed for kids. In fact, I'm not even in this episode at all, because what you're about to hear is a conversation between Seth and my son Asher, newly 14 years old and a person who is fairly familiar with resistance. Of course, parents, caregivers, and educators will get a lot out of listening to this too. I know that I learned a ton. by hearing Asher's end of this conversation. Then next week I'll release part two in which Seth and I revisit Resistance, highlight the ways this shows up in our kids, and talk through more about how we can support our kids work through their resistance.
I'm really excited to share these episodes with you. Like all of the conversations I have with Seth, these are game changers. So grab your kiddos, get comfortable, and have a listen. And if you haven't heard them yet, I suggest you go back and listen to the deep dives that Seth and I have done on executive functioning in past episodes. You can find links to those episodes on the show notes page at tiltparenting.com slash session one twenty-three. Lastly, Seth has also created a special page on his website just for Tilt listeners. And on that page, you'll find a PDF that Seth has made highlighting the key takeaways from this episode, a special discount code for listeners for Seth's new online course called Upgrade Your Grades Student Success Program, and more.
So you can visit that special page by going to SethPurler.com. slash tilt and I will also have a link to that page on my show notes page. And one more thing before I get to the episode, if you haven't had a chance to check out my new book, Differently Wired, and you want to see if it's for you, don't forget you can download the first chapter and table of contents at tiltparenting.com slash
What is resistance and why does it matter for kids?
But
And if you have read it already and like what you read, I would be grateful if you would consider leaving a review on Amazon or Goodreads or both. More reviews means more visibility for the book, and I am doing my best to make sure the people who would benefit from its message can easily find it. So thanks so much for helping me with that. And now here is my conversation with Seth.
Hey, what's up everybody? My name is Seth. This is with SethPro.com and I'm here with Asher. Asher, how do we know each other?
Um well I am A frequent interviewee on the Tilt Parenting Podcast.
That's right. And I've been on Tilt before. And today we we had this idea.
