206 - Respectful Parenting IRL: Allowing imperfection Mar 24, 2022

Show notes

Welcome back after a long break! We've missed you all and we are so excited to bring you all the content we've been working on while we were missing from your podcast feed. Introducing our new Respectful Parenting: IRL Series! We hope you can see yourself and your children in these raw and honest interviews. On today's episode, mom of two and village member, Arna Meyer, joins us to talk about how we can adjust our expectations for ourselves and our kids on a daily basis. There’s this idea in respectful parenting that if you do this “the right way” that your kids will stop the misbehaviors, tantrums and outbursts. But we know that just isn’t the case. So how can we allow our kids to have the space to express and at the same time teach them pro social ways to be in community with others? How can we get through these days with our kids without feeling like we’re failing? We chat about simple things you can do everyday to see these changes in your day to day life.

202 - How to emotion coach for emotion processing with Lauren Stauble Dec 08, 2021

Show notes

We talk a lot at Seed and Sew about emotional intelligence, emotional processing and helping our tiny humans build their toolboxes. But what does that actually look like? What are the steps and how do we help facilitate these skills in our kiddos? In today's episode of Voices of Your Village, my CEP co-creator, Lauren Stauble, joined me to break down our method step by step. We dove into each phase of emotional processing, avoiding common pitfalls and how fostering these skills not only gives our kiddos an emotional toolbox for life, but also greatly impacts the parenting experience.

201 - Co-regulation vs self-regulation Dec 02, 2021

Show notes

On This episode of Voices of Your Village I chat with pediatric occupational therapist and woman behind Thriving Littles, Katie Crosby, about the important topic of co-regulation and self-regulation. What is the difference between the two? And what is an appropriate timeline for moving from co-reg in infancy to self-reg as kiddo's get older? We dive into what we as parents and caregivers need to bring to the table in order to help guide our kiddos through their big emotions, and what we need to do in order for our tiny humans to build the skillset they need to self-regulate.
