Summary
You’re already a good parent, but here’s how you can be even better: Do you keep doubting your parenting abilities, because it seems like every time you try harder, you also fail harder? Do you see yourself as a bad parent whenever you make mistakes? Do you wonder what really makes someone a good or a bad parent?
It’s normal to feel this way–parenting is never easy. You’re doing everything you can to give your child the best life possible.
The fact that you’re looking for ways to improve your parenting shows that you are already good enough–because you want to help your offspring thrive in life. Each personality type comes with flaws that can negatively affect your childrearing. It’s crucial to understand how your personality can impact the way you bring up your child, so you know how to improve your weaknesses and play to your strengths. If you want to become the best parent you can be while staying true to yourself, then look no further. Inside, you will discover:
- The nine enneagram types—and how to interpret your results to use them to your advantage.
- How to cultivate a growth mindset so you will not be hard on yourself and the rest of your family.
- Why you need to know your parenting purpose—and seven crucial questions you should ask yourself to discover it.
- What to do to make your child feel valued and cared for, even if you’re a working parent.
- And much more!
The strategies in this audiobook are applicable to children of all ages, from infants and teens to grown-up kids.
This audiobook is not meant to dictate what you should do, but rather to help you develop self-awareness so you can overcome guilt, frustrations, and self-doubt as a parent, and be able to raise your kid without giving in to society’s pressures. If you want to know how to make the most of your personality so you can be the best parent you can be, then this audiobook is a must listen.

Great addition!!!
The recommendations made in this book implemented the personality of both child and parent as well as have a willingness to see where your personality maybe getting in the way of what you are trying to teach. Because parenting isn’t a one size fits all thing. This is a great book to help you pivot your parenting, so that you can enjoy it more and help your kids in.

The perfect parenting handbook
As a parent, we always think we know it best when it comes to parenting our children but missing the depth of the role our personality plays in our parenting. This audiobook is a great manual for parents to help bring clarity where there is confusion & frustration in any parenting relationship.
The author leverages the enneagram tool which helps parents to understand their their personality better and the role it plays to shape their behaviours and parenting. Alot of guidance is provided in supporting parents with frequent challenges faced & lots more and how to improve.
A very good toolkit which every parent needs to have. Very recommended.

A LOT OF USEFUL INFORMATION
I believe that as parents, we all secretly question our parenting abilities. I have always been highly process-oriented in running my various businesses as a busy father of three children, but I have never approached parenting with a "laid out strategy." I particularly like how the book goes into great detail on the three-step process that can help us clarify our purpose, identify and comprehend the goals we have with our children, and nurture the attitude necessary to meet the objectives. In order to succeed in business, you must establish goals that have measurable outcomes.
This book has made me more aware of the need for a roadmap if I'm going to give my kids the best possible start in life. I heartily urge parents of kids of any age to read this book.

Great book
A great resource for any parent.
I think a lot of parents can think they know best how to parent but this book teaches how you need a long term strategy and goals to give your kids the best chance in life.
I particularly liked the focus on your child’s personality and how this can shape what parenting strategies you use

Worth Reading
Being a parent isn’t easy, but a book like this can definitely make the journey less difficult. The author encourages us to learn our “Enneagram Parenting Style” ,so, we can understand how our personalities can help or harm our children. After taking the online Enneagram test, I’ve learned that I’m a heart-centered feeling person. It was very interesting to find out how my own personality can dictate how I should interact with family and friends. This book truly helped me self-reflect on my own flaws and strengths. I would highly recommend!
