In this episode of The Connection Compass Podcast, I am delighted to have sat down with the truly inspiring Celia Kibler, mother of five and Founder of Be a Better Parent, the Day of Calm Foundation, and Fun Fit Family Fitness. Celia has spent her life working with children and parents, on a mission to stop 10 million parents from yelling at their kids.
We dive into what it truly means to parent intentionally, why yelling never produces the child you hope for, and how parents can create calm, connected, and confident families. Celia also shares her insights on boundaries, letting kids explore safely, managing parental fears, and how to focus on what’s right instead of what’s wrong. Plus, we touch on her inspiring global initiatives, from the Be a Better Parent app to building a school in Uganda.
Whether you’re a parent, educator, or just someone who wants to understand modern parenting better, this episode is packed with practical advice, heart, and hope.
In this episode we discuss
- Celia’s Mission to stop 10 million parents from yelling at their kids
- How parenting has changed since 1983 and why parents feel pressure to “get it right”
