8 | Alison Stratten Talks "Family"

In today’s show of Words with Friends, Phil interviews author, producer and content creator, Alison Stratten.  Our topic for today’s show is “Family”.  Family means different things to different people. For Alison, her family is her purpose, her foundation – that gives her stability. Her life revolves around her five kids, ranging from 13 to 23.   During this virus outbreak, Alison shares that like most people, her family is also under lockdown.  How have her family dynamics changed in the wake of COVID-19?  While some of her kids are coping fine with social distancing, Alison reveals that her other kids are going through a difficult phase. In this segment of the show, we discuss why it is necessary to display more empathy right now.  How can you maintain an emotional equilibrium right now when you need to “give” without getting anything in return? And, as a parent, what is the best way of dealing with your child’s frustrations? We discuss all this and much more in today’s show.  We wrap up this show with a fun and engaging rapid fire round.  Tune in to this great conversation now!  What You Will Learn In This Show  How to manage family dynamics in the wake of the coronavirus outbreak  Why your family is your safe haven  How children are adapting to online learning  How to channel your emotions during the lockdown  And so much more!  Resources  Alison’s LinkedIn  Alison’s Instagram  Unmarketing  The Jackass Whisperer: How to deal with the worst people at work, at home and online―even when the Jackass is you  QR Codes Kill Kittens: How to Alienate Customers, Dishearten Employees, and Drive Your Business into the Ground
