Description

In this interview, Vivek Patel discusses how we can use the principles of improvisational comedy to support our parenting:

  • WHY an “improv attitude” matters for parenting and how we use it
  • Why we don’t need to be funny to do improv in parenting
  • Why flexibility is key in a healthy parent/child dyad; how we release our attachment to certain outcomes
  • The “Yes, and…” concept of improv — how it works, how we can relate it to everyday experiences with our children
  • What to do when we feel stuck; when play doesn’t come naturally or we feel awkward
  • What it looks like long-term when we parent this way
