Doug and Thea share some of the decisions they had to make as parents to empower their children and set them apart from the norm in their life. From how they parent and talk with each other in front of them and how they play a role in their everyday life, Doug and Thea have made parenting and creating space in their home very intentional. After realizing how much their children were being institutionalized in a broken school system that prepares them for a world that doesn't exist, Doug and Thea created something that hasn't been seen yet. Valor Global Online is an online school that prepares kids to become world changers.  For more info on VGO check out: www.valorglobal.online Connect with Doug IG, @therealdougwood Connect with Thea IG, @theawood For more info about Doug & Thea go to: www.dougandthea.com   0:00 - Welcome Back 0:43 - Intentional Dynamics Creation 2:23 - Decision to Rewrite Life Story 4:56 - Discipline Equals Love 6:51 - Impact of Emotional Intelligence on Kids 9:35 - Early Parenting Insights 14:07 - Founding Valor Journey 17:25 - Life-Changing Email 21:30 - Launching Valor Initiative 25:06 - First Valor Retreat Experience 26:35 - Valor's Rapid Growth 27:40 - Valor Global Online Introduction 29:35 - Valor Philosophy 31:50 - Making Life Changes 34:58 - Enroll in Valor Global Online 40:16 - Overcoming Sideline Syndrome 42:52 - Valor Partnership Opportunities
