We’re always updating the operating systems on our devices, but do we ever think about updating the “operating system” we use to live our lives?
The truth is, a lot of people end up living with their “default” setting; doing things not because it’s what they want, but because it’s what they think they’re “supposed” to be doing based on what they’ve seen in their past.
That’s why in episode 26, I sit down with Kate Wendell from FamilyOS. Kate and her husband Tanner Wendell work with couples to help them update their “family operating systems” so they can live a more peaceful, successful life.
In this conversation, Kate shares:
✅What is a “family operating system” and why is it essential to having healthy relationships with your partner and child?
✅The “CODE” for creating a peaceful, thriving family (that Kate and Tanner teach couples they coach).
✅Why the mindset of “the kids always come first” can do more harm than good; plus the counterintuitive way of thinking that ends up helping kids more in the long run.
✅How your past impacts the way you parent and interact with your partner (plus some personal struggles Kate and Tanner have worked through).
✅Why having a “system” focused on long-term goals can help your family feel safe and secure.
