OM DENNE EPISODE
In this episode, I sit down with leadership mentor and values-based coach, Adalena Oliver, about core values, those beliefs that guide decisions when no one is watching and how they shape parenting through what children observe in everyday moments.
Adelena shares how recognizing misalignment with her values, especially freedom, influenced her leadership and personal choices. She recounts a childhood lesson that set her on a course of discovering the true meaning of core values. Adalena explains her Developmental Core Values Theory, emphasizing that values show up differently across life stages and that parents often err by punishing without curiosity about their children’s level of understanding, thoughts, and intentions.
We discuss principles like modeling values, apologizing, and restoring trust, as well as deciding which inherited practices to keep or change amid cultural and technology-driven pressures.
If you’ve been wondering how to impart crucial values and ideals to your children in a meaningful way, tune in for tips to get you started.
