145. When Your Kid Gets Stuck, Do This! Oct 18, 2023

Show notes

We all want to feel comfortable with a peaceful approach to parenting. However, sometimes our brain knows we're on the right path, but it doesn't feel like it's working. We want to be the parents we wish we'd had, and that can open up some childhood wounds and trauma. One way this happens is through the realization that we didn't feel heard as children, and now that we're parents, it feels like our kids don't listen to us.

Discover how your parenting journey could be opening up old wounds from your own childhood. I'm discussing why parenting presents us with these dilemmas, and I'm showing you how to be there for your children when they're stuck, so they don't carry the same wounds into adulthood that you did.
