Let's face it, there is no such thing as perfect parenting. We're going to lose our cool and probably make a bad situation a little worse. But guess what? All of that is OK if you take time to repair. Treat children with respect and they will learn how to show respect and resolve ruptures in relationship 🧠

Create an environment for kids to develop into their true self!

This is it. This is the goal.

But it isn’t always easy to let go of this perceived control. And it isn’t always easy to show up in ways that promote security and a full acceptance of who your kids are.

It often takes the dual process of growing alongside our kids, creating security, confidence, and the ability to tune into who you are. And what a beautiful opportunity that is.

Tired of the guesswork and trying to figure out what your kids actually need? I’m here to help! DM me and let’s chat!

When your child's stress response is bigger than the size of the actual stressor (well, your perceived size of the stressor!), try saying to yourself:

"My child has an extremely sensitized stress response system"

instead of

"My child is...dramatic, manipulative, overreacting, spoiled, bratty...."

See how that helps YOUR stress response system!

Did you try it? How did it feel? Tell me!
