    About this ebook

    One of the most important skills for improving the relationship between parents and children is encouragement. Focus on the strengths of your child to build self-confidence and self-esteem. Parents who encourage their children help them to develop the courage to be imperfect.

    We all want what's best for our children. But while our intentions are honorable, our methods for helping our children become responsible often fall short of desired results.

    Who is Judy H. Wright aka Auntie Artichoke? & What’s with the Artichoke? Judy is a parent educator, family coach, and personal historian who has written more than 20 books, hundreds of articles and speaks internationally on family issues, including care giving. Trained as a ready to learn consultant, she works with Head Start organizations and child care resource centers. She also volunteers time writing end-of-life stories for Hospice. She and Dwain, her husband of 40 years, have six grown children and seven grandchildren. They consider their greatest success in life that their children like themselves and each other. The honorary title of “Auntie” is given in many cultures to the wise women who guide and mentor others in life. The artichoke also became a teaching lesson when Judy, with her young family, moved into military housing in California to find Artichokes in their yard. Given that it takes two years for the vegetable to flower, the original gardener never got to see the seeds of her labor. Many times, our actions and reactions in life are felt by people we will never meet, but we plant the seeds of kindness anyway. The symbol of the artichoke has great meaning in her teaching and writing. As she works with families, she sees frequently only the outer edges are exposed and can be prickly, hard to open and sometimes bitter to the taste. They are closed to new ideas or methods. Many families prefer the known over the unknown, even when the old patterns and skills are not serving them well. But, as you expose the artichoke and people to warmth, caring, and time, gradually the leaves begin to open and expose the real treasure—the heart. You will enjoy Judy's approachable manner, wonderful storytelling and common-sense solutions gleaned from working with hundreds of families and organizations just like yours. Your encounter with Judy will leave you feeling inspired, entertained and especially motivated. Visit Judy's website for excellent references and a full listing of books, workshop topics, tele-classes and testimonials. To make arrangements for your group or organization to enjoy having Judy present a keynote address, workshop or training session, please contact her at: Judy H. Wright aka Auntie Artichoke, the Storytelling Trainer (406) 549-9813, Email: Judy@ArtichokePress.com www.ArtichokePress.com “Finding the heart of the story in the journey of life.” Free eBook at www.UseEncouragingWords.com “Visiting with Judy is like having a cup of tea with a loving auntie.” "We are all grateful for the incredible work you do to birth these stories."
