Show notes

As a parent, I have come to understand the significance of positivity and self-belief. In today's world of parenting, it is crucial to reshape our relationships with our children. Instead of labeling them as "difficult," we should view their behaviors as a sign of struggle and support them accordingly. By fostering strong connection with our kids, we can bring a positive change in family dynamics and have a profound impact on our children's lives.

Why I Don’t Correct My Kids Sep 12, 2023

Show notes

Today I want to challenge some long-standing parenting beliefs, specifically the idea of correction and why the conventional methods of correcting our kids might not be as effective as we think. Children already know when they've made a mistake and our role as parents should be to connect and empathize rather than correct. I encourage you to try a ten-day challenge where you put aside correction and focus on nurturing your parent-child relationships through empathy, play, and affection. I truly believe it’s a journey worth exploring.

Unpunished: Understanding Your Parenting Instincts Sep 07, 2023

Show notes

As parents, we often encounter difficulties when our children bring up unresolved emotions and behaviors from our own upbringing. It is essential to be aware of these emotions and reprogram our natural parenting instincts so that we can respond with love, kindness, and understanding instead of anger and punishment. Today, I would like to share an excerpt from my book, "Unpunished," along with some useful journaling prompts that can help us explore our own history and emotions as parents. By doing so, we can gain a deeper understanding of our reactions to our children's behavior and improve our parenting skills.

Understanding Your Child's Temperament Sep 05, 2023

Show notes

As parents, we often encounter kids with two distinct temperaments. The first type values their authenticity and won't betray themselves, even if it means risking their relationship with their guardian. The second type of child remains loyal to their caretaker and will do anything to comply with their wishes, often leading to a lack of personal growth. Rather than resorting to control to bring these kids to a middle ground, we can help them find balance by using connection and unconditional love.

The Mother Wounds Aug 31, 2023

Show notes

I was deeply hurt by two mothers when I was young, my biological mother who left when I was twelve, and my stepmother who came into the picture shortly after. Both of these mother wounds shaped the way I began my parenting journey and set me on a path that would have been similar for my children.

But it was this that led me to find connected parenting and I was able to change the way I parent and in turn, limit the mother wounds for my kids. If we want to prevent these mother wounds then we have to do the deep transformative work in our parenting.
