Showing Unconditional Love
671
If I asked any parent if they love their kid unconditionally they are more than likely going to say yes, but how do we show our kids this? Because it's a very different feeling coming from the child's side of things. We can tell them this over and over with our words but kids make this assessment based on how we act and more importantly react to them.

I Don’t Discipline My Kids, Here’s What I Do Instead
830
When I say discipline, most of us immediately go to a vision of punishing our kids when they do something wrong, like confiscating something or time outs. For some, it can even mean physical punishments like spanking. That’s because we have a very traditional sense of the word discipline. I don’t use any of these traditional forms of discipline on my kids, that's because they are watching every move I make and will inevitably do the same when I’m not around. We have to give our kids credit for knowing what’s right and wrong and instead, try to model the behavior which we want them to embody. Enjoy today’s episode?

Breaking Free From Fear-Based Parenting
876
Today I want to talk about parenting from fear. As parents, we all want to protect our children from experiencing the hardships and pain we went through as children. However, in doing so, are we unintentionally hindering their growth and development?

Harsh Parenting Affects All Relationships

Society has set us up that a harsh word or a harsh tone is how we fix bad behavior.

I Don’t Care About Grades… Here’s Why
886
From a young age, the education system teaches us (and our kids) that grades are the metrics for assessing if they are doing well but this can put a lot of pressure on them. I have decided instead to give my kids responsibility for their own grades instead of constantly harping on them to get good grades. I want to help them focus on learning the material and understanding why they're struggling if they're having a hard time. Working with individuals and couples is my most favorite work. We dive deeply into the ideas of connection and unravel the struggles of each individual family I work with. It’s a transformational paradigm shift each and every time.

Unpunished: The Pressure to Be the Perfect Parent
666
On the 200th episode, I reflect on a significant lesson I've learned: being my child's best friend doesn't eliminate conflict. I used to put immense pressure on myself to be perfect, but I've since realized that connected parenting is built on unconditional acceptance, not back-and-forth games. It's okay to make mistakes as a parent, and building a strong connection with our children is what truly matters. Thanks for joining me on this journey!

Using Probing Questions to Help Your Child’s Decision-Making Skills
629
I believe every child needs to be a good decision-maker, but they can't become good decision-makers if they don’t have decisions to make. While giving advice may seem like good parenting, I think it actually hinders children's ability to learn from their mistakes. Instead, I suggest we listen to our little ones first and use some probing questions to help them make their own decisions. With the right approach, children can learn to help themselves and bounce back from their failures with ease. Enjoy today’s episode?

How to Know if Your Parenting Is Working
714
If you’ve recently started on this connected parenting journey sometimes it's hard to know if you’re getting any results. Many of my clients are concerned that their kids are still misbehaving, and still fighting with each other, and still throwing tantrums. But that’s not how we measure your parenting, we measure by way of how YOU are feeling, whether you are calmer and more in control. Just because we change doesn’t mean our kids will change, it takes them a while. Enjoy today’s episode? Please share it with a fellow parent or leave a rating and a review.

A New Parenting Mindset
736
One of the first things we need to do in order to implement a connected parenting style is to change our mindset. But making this shift is extremely difficult because society has told us that children are inherently bad and that they need us to make them good. I don’t believe this is true and if we can get past the judgment and allow our kids to make mistakes and sit with them during the hard times it will create a much more connected and empathetic kid as they grow up.

Connection Is About the Quality of Time Not the Quantity
778
If you were born in the ’80s or ‘90’s you were more than likely raised using shame and threats and punishments.

Coming in with empathy and understanding when our kids make mistakes infuses more connection into the relationship. And guess what, it’s not about the amount of time we spend with our child that builds a deep, meaningful, rich relationship it’s about the quality of time.

Parenting Is an Endeavor in Changing Our Behavior Not Our Kids
968
We might think that it’s our role as parents to modify and correct the behavior of our kids, and we often do that by using rewards and punishments. But this is an archaic principle developed from lab tests with rats. Today Michelle talks about how being a parent is more about relationship management, and changing our own behavior and self-regulation is the key to influencing our kid's behavior.
Working with individuals and couples is my most favorite work. We dive deeply into the ideas of connection and unravel the struggles of each individual family I work with.

Strong-Willed, Highly Sensitive Kids
765
Strong-willed kids are often sensitive, like my sweet Esme. These kids will make parenting using conventional ideas very challenging. Good for them to push back against the ideas of control and manipulation. Their internal workings tell them these tactics are attacks on their psyche. The problem is they come out fighting and then the circle of behavior begins with little hope of getting it to stop except through connection. Let's dive in and see just exactly how we can help these lovely beings.

Being the Safe Container for Your Child
802
The feelings our children display can be difficult for us to endure. However, when we do with calm, we show them we are safe and able to be their container. As life moves on we are cementing this idea. When things are hard where will they come? But only if we can illustrate we are actually safe.

How to Respond to Disappointments
723
Often we say our child is upset when they “don’t get their own way” but is it that simple and are they “allowed to have feelings around disappointment? Aren’t we upset when things don’t go our own way? Isn’t it true we feel disappointed or defeated? Just because they are little doesn’t mean they aren’t “allowed” to have those feelings too.

Why Is Connective Parenting for All Kids
718
Connective parenting is for all kids because it draws from the ideas of unconditional love and relationship instead of rewards and punishments. All children and all people thrive with connection and do not do well with punishment, belittlement, or harshness. Who wants to be treated in these ways and what does this type of treatment do to a child's brain? Find out all the answers in this week's podcast.

Do We Believe We Aren’t Good Enough Parents
750
Do we actually believe we aren’t good enough parents because we weren’t good enough kids? Were our mistakes punished and pointed out in order to make us feel bad and do we feel bad now when we mess up, chastise ourselves and hold ourselves to unattainable standards like the ones our parents held us to? I believe this could be a big part of the parent shaming cycle that never ends but continues outside of our childhood. Let’s reframe this idea.

Connection Is Vital in Parenting
727
The brain functions well with connection and is at ease when they feel good about the people that are around. Especially children and babies. The limbic system looks to connect with other limbic systems in order to feel safe. Our children are constantly looking to make connections in order to establish a deep connection with a caretaker to ensure they are taken care of. They are provided shelter, sustenance, and protection. Maintaining connections for children is vital to their existence. Listen to this week's episode as Michelle more deeply explains.

I Was My Daughter’s First Bully
874
This realization of being a bully didn’t come to Michelle early on in parenting, but as she reflects she now sees her behavior as a young mom resembled that of bullying. The yelling, threats, bribes, and shame aren’t something any child should have to live with, and really no person. Do we want to show up in our loving relationships in this way or would we rather come to them with love and understanding? It can be hard when society and often our own families are telling us otherwise.

Let’s Be Honest… Parenting Is Hard
720
Let’s be honest parenting is really hard and sometimes impossible. This week I keep it real with you and tell you all the things that have me stumped. It doesn’t mean I love my kids less, but it does mean that I struggle just like you, and to be honest there are days I want to run away. There are days I wish they were grown and there are days when it is more challenging than I ever imagined.

Co-Regulation vs Self-Regulation
773
There's much discussion about regulation. How do I get my child to self-regulate? How do I get them to learn about their emotions and learn emotional regulation? Can I teach it to them and what is the best way? Many folks want to explain and teach breathing techniques and ways to name their feelings. But co-regulation is where it's really at. Co-regulation is where kids really internalize the idea of maintaining their cool.

Respect…How Do We Get It
799
Respect is something society tells us our children "need" to have for us. Kids are expected to respect their elders and "be" respectful. Much of the respect I see is respect that is forced and not the kind that is earned. My children need to earn my respect and me theirs. We live in a reciprocal relationship that is based on mutual respect. Isn't that what we want in our other loving relationships? Why would this one be any different?

Is Punishment Revenge
623
Yep, I said it, and I believe it. Punishment is revenge in a very real way. We don’t punish children for any other reason except we want them to “pay” for what they did. It’s not our fault, as our parents did the same thing. If we look at our own childhood we can remember what it felt like and how punitive and unkind it came across. Is this what we want for our kids?

Instilling Gratitude
664
How do we teach our children gratitude? Is it through direct instruction or lessons on being grateful? Do we point out all the things in their lives that they should be grateful for, or make them regurgitate things they are grateful for at the Thanksgiving Table? What is being grateful anyway and how do we show our children we are grateful for them? Have a listen and maybe gain a different perspective.

Giving Responsibilities to Our Children
912
Bedtime, bathtime, and homework become very sticky places at times between us and our children. We often struggle here where maybe we don’t need to. Isn’t the goal to have self-sufficient kids who know how to take care of themselves? But how will they learn when they feel hungry, tired, or dirty if we are constantly micromanaging these chores?

Is It Too Late to Change The Way I Parent

When Our Children Struggle Do We Internalize It
772
Sometimes when our kids struggle we blame ourselves and hold ourselves accountable. We believe it’s our fault especially when there are big ugly feelings. Can we instead be present and grounded in those feelings and bear witness to help them come through and help them know those big ugly feelings are totally normal? This builds grit and emotional regulation.

Gentle Parenting Doesn’t Create Snowflakes

Gentle parenting or conscious parenting if done right does not create children who are “snowflakes”. What is a snowflake anyway and how can we both come to our kids with kindness and avoid creating adults who cannot withstand upsetting and hard moments in life? Could our overparenting be hindering us, and what about underparenting? Goodness, there’s too much to discuss.

How to Respond to Misbehavior With Connection
696
When our child misbehaves the first thing to do is to make it stop and our next thought is to correct, scold or punish. Why? Because this is precisely what our parents would do and what society tells us will “work” to get the behavior to cease. Let me offer you a reframe and a different thought which could totally transform your home. No more punishments necessary.

We Are Not Our Parents
746
We overly stress about the trauma we might be causing our children. We often believe every misstep and slip up will “ruin” our kids. I hear this often from my clients and on Social Media.

Our Child’s Inner Voice Can Be Derived From How We Speak and Act
612
Even if we are doing away with punishments we can still have a critical attitude when it comes to our children. Those criticisms and judgments might stick deeper than all of the positive things we are experiencing with our kids each day. Our mind processes positive and negative things differently. Unfortunately, the negative things become our focus. When they do, can they get stuck in our inner speak? How can we help our kids gain positive inner speak?

What to do When Your Child Says Something Unkind
766

Familial Roles Play a Part in Parenting
695
The role we take on in our nuclear family may easily transfer into our parenting, and often informs the ways in which we treat our children. Subconsciously we may perpetuate these roles without fully recognizing what they are or where they come from. Largely because children in our society are viewed as immediately “being” wrong and therefore we may jump to these conclusions without even recognizing it’s happening. Join me this week as I talk about my own roles and how those have plagued my parenting as well.

The Case Against Advice

Working with individuals and couples is my most favorite work. We dive deeply into the ideas of connection and unravel the struggles of each individual family I work with. It’s a transformational paradigm shift each and every time. I have seen families undergo huge changes that forever impact their relationships.

6 Phrases Which Should be Eliminated From Parenting
1081
“Use your words” and other phrases have me thinking deeply. Where do they come from and what do they mean? Can we reframe and rethink those ideas and perhaps leave them for the generations past.

What’s Brain Science Got to do With it?
925
Brain Science is at the heart of all things Parenting with Connection. The inner workings of the brain help us better understand behavior. When we use it as our guide it helps us understand why Connective Parenting works so well and what the benefits are all around as compared to Conventional Parenting. Brain Science gives us the underpinning of tangible facts which help guide our everyday interactions.

Things we likely didn't learn growing up. I know I didn’t and learning this skill has helped me be a connected, strong, and confident leader of my family. The peace it has brought my daughters and our home is immeasurable. I created a course: Understanding Big Emotions which was created to teach this exact skill.

Conscious Parenting Has Limits… They Are Just Different
797
It has been said that parenting with connection lacks limits because it fails to use punishments or rewards, but limits do not need to be set using these methods and can in fact use empathy and understanding instead. Limits can also be used to create a place for a child to offload feelings and process emotions. This can only happen with empathy as opposed to punishments.
How do we dole out punishments and when we do, do they actually work, or are we chasing our tail in hopes of finding ways to “get” our kids to “behave” follow directions and listen? Is there a better way and why? Why are punishments so ineffective and what can we do instead? Join me for one of my FREE Webinars: How to Parenting Without Punishments. I will be live talking all about it and helping you do away with this unnecessary parenting tactic.

The Difference Between Connective and Conventional Parenting
696
Connective parenting can be confusing. What is it? What are the values and how can I get my children to be good people by just being nice? Well, there’s a bit more to it and maintaining and promoting the child-parent relationship is the most important aspect of Connective Parenting. Whereas conventional methods rely on control and punishments. How does it feel to be in a relationship where you feel controlled?
Understanding your child's big emotions and learning how to be there for them during those upsets is a learned skill. One we likely didn't learn growing up. I know I didn’t, and learning this skill has helped me be a connected, strong, and confident leader of my family. The peace it has brought my daughters and our home is immeasurable.

Connective Parenting is Hard
646
Connective parenting isn’t all roses! No parenting is, let’s just keep it authentic shall we? There are extra pressures with parenting against the grain. We are learning and relearning so many new things, we are fighting against what society says we should and we are exhausted from listening to big ugly feelings. I know how it feels I am right there with you and let me reassure you just because it’s hard doesn’t mean it isn’t working or you are not on the right track. You are there, you are getting there and it is worth it. Stay with it, stay with me on this journey, and know the end is not far away, it won’t always be this hard and you are not alone!

Is Saying I am Proud of You Hazardous?
744
I am proud of you, was something I always wanted to hear from my parents, but why? Why did I crave it so much? Was it because I felt the unconditionality of their love and is this what we want for our kids? Or would we rather them know we love them just the same when they mess up or when they do well. How can we promote internal pride and acceptance as opposed to setting them up to look for external acceptance? Listen in and get the lowdown.

How I Learned to Forgive Myself When I Misstep
803
I began parenting with the idea of being the perfectly attached mom. But what none of the books told me was how to respond to my children when things were hard, when strong wills were introduced and kids said no. I resorted to yelling and that yelling led me to self-loathing which created a cycle I could not stop until I found connective parenting. Come along on my journey today of self-love and forgiveness and find out how this ultimately benefited my sweet girls. Have you ever felt alone in your parenting, as if you were the only one struggling? I know I have been there and finding like-minded individuals has helped me navigate the murky waters of parenting with intention and peace. For this reason, I have created the Peace and Parenting community, and right now you can be part of our new membership. Each week I will be providing you with parenting strategies. I will host three live Q&A’s every month and supply you with lessons, PDFs and support materials and you'll be part of my exclusive online community. To find out more head to peaceandparentingla.com/membership and get all the details. I look forward to seeing you live!

How to Respond to a Child When They Believe Something is Unfair
503
Life, as we know, is not fair, but are we trying to shield our children from fairness or are we diving deeply into acknowledgment and acceptance instead? Isn’t the ideal of everything being equal and unrealistic thought and trying to even every instance into fairness doing our children a disservice? How do we help them accept unfairness and still support them in their feelings when they feel wronged? Listen in as I go into more depth around helping our kids cope with unfairness.

How to Respond to Our Children When We Misstep
560
This week on the podcast I describe how I have tried to make repairs when I have behaved in ways that I know are not acceptable. We are all human and making mistakes is inevitable and also part of how we learn to do better. Modeling effective apologies and making amends is the best way we can teach our children how to take responsibility for their actions. If we can take responsibility for ours they will learn this is the way to interact in the world and this is how we gain and give forgiveness. There are many good lessons in these interactions.

6 Reasons Not to Take Your Child’s Words or Behavior Personally
619
Not taking our child’s behavior personally can be extremely challenging. Not only does it restimulate our own unmet needs but on some level, we might believe what they are saying is true or that they really believe we are “mean” or understand that the off-track behavior is meaningful rather than just a behavior. In this episode, I reframe those ideas and give some alternative thoughts around taking our child's unwanted behaviors and words personally. I’ll give you 6 reasons why you shouldn’t and the outcomes if you don’t.

Ways to Make 2022 Better For You and Your Family
734
This year, I want to prioritize myself. I want to make my care at the top of my list. These are simple things we overlook which can really improve our overall mood. I know when I do this I feel better, do better in all aspects and am all around happier. But it’s not easy! It’s one of the most difficult things in parenting I believe. This happiness breeds happiness in my household and in turn trickles down to my children. The “doer” in me fights against this notion and largely throws me off my game! I have to make goals and write things down to make this my reality. I will chat about it here to hold myself accountable and perhaps that this is helpful for you too.

2021 Inventory: What I Have Learned and What I am Still Working On
1031
I have had many revelations around my parenting this year. Like every year there are also many places I still need to work. For me parenting really is an inside-out endeavor. The more committed I am to working on my inner growth and maturity the more progress I see. Paradigm shifts and mindset changes give me the biggest growth. This week I give you mine, hoping that you can glean some support around my growth and where I need to improve.
Working with individuals and couples is my most favorite work. We dive deeply into the ideas of connection and unravel the struggles of each individual family I work with. It’s a transformational paradigm shift each and every time. I have seen families undergo huge changes which forever impact their relationships. My One on One programs will see an increase in 2022. From now until January purchase my 6, 8, or 10-week packages at the 2021 prices and save 15%. I have limited space, so these 8 spots will be first come first serve. I look forward to working with you.

Why I Don’t Use Discipline
1111
Discipline can be a confusing word in the world of conscious parenting. Is it guidance and coaching or do most of the world view it as harsh punishments? In my world with my daughters, I do not subscribe to any type of punishment or discipline. In this podcast, I tell you why and give you a compelling argument as to why you should consider doing away with harsh parenting altogether. In reality, it does us no favors and can actually cause more of the behaviors we find ourselves punishing our children for.

Parent Question: How Do I Help My Child with Her Social Life with IG Follower Regine
1602
Regine is an Instagram follower who came to me with a real question about her daughter’s social life. I think we have all been there...when we want to just have a little chat with the 8-year-old kid who is being unkind to our child. You know, just let them know you are watching! Somehow it’s likely not the right move, but what is? What can we do for kids and support them through the social ups and downs? What is too much intervention and what is just enough?

Why is Parenting so Hard with Guest Claudia Dolin
1667
My best friend joins me in a real conversation about just how hard parenting actually is, and why some days we just want to run away never to return! She and I often lament about the struggles in motherhood, where we find our own personal hurdles and how we can help ourselves to help our children find more peace for everyone. It is not easy and we are the first to admit that we certainly don’t have it all figured out, but we try to do better and help each other along the way! Join Claudia and I this week for a real glimpse inside the not-so-glamorous world of motherhood.
The holidays are an incredible time of the year, and at the same time, very stressful and tricky. Our kids can get lost in the "business" shuffle, and connection can be thin. Michelle wants to help you remedy some of the common issues during the holidays and aid you in achieving more calm and peace so everyone can have a more enjoyable season. If you want to be more connected this holiday season, download her guide on: How to Navigate the 7 Trickiest Holiday Moments.

Parenting through Divorce with Children with Kate Anthony from The Divorce Survival Guide
1858
In this episode, Michelle is joined by Kate Anthony, a certified divorce coach who helps women deal with the difficulties of divorce with children. In this candid conversation, the duo uncovers myths about relationship separation and lends advice for parenting through divorce.
When we can keep our children at the "center" instead of the middle of divorce we help our kids process the messiness of separation, custody and visitation. It isn't easy to make a decision around ending your marriage especially with children, but we can emerge on the other side with love, connectedness and a family that still feels like a family. It might look different and be arranged in a new way but connection can remain regardless.
Kate brings her experience with helping women navigate this trying time to help others find peace around this process and trying experience.
To learn more from Kate Anthony, you can view her website and listen to her podcast, The Divorce Survival Guide Podcast or find her on Instagram at @thedivorcesurvivalguide

My Desire to Be a Good Mom Led Me to Forsake My Children
749
Growing up, I was taught that to be a good kid-- you needed to behave and follow instructions, or else society would label you a bad kid. So naturally, when I began my journey in motherhood, I stepped into it with that same kind of mindset. I fell into the hole of believing that society’s opinion was my benchmark for being a good mother-- because I had well-behaved kids controlled by star charts and shame. It wasn't until I made peace with my own childhood that I realized I needed to break the cycle with my own daughters and really build that connection to fix my relationship with them. Though these old habits lurk around the corners sometimes and rear their head, I am so much more conscious now of when I need to take a step back. So if you’re a recovering yeller just like me, then I’d highly recommend you listen in on how I managed to unlearn controlling my kids, to working in harmony and cooperation with them!

Teens and Punishments with DJ Inspire
1471
“It takes a village to raise a child.” is an old saying I’m sure many of you have heard. We’re so worried about the judgment of other parents that when our kids misbehave, we spend more energy fighting them when that same energy should be spent on connecting with our kids and raising them. So in this episode, I’m excited to be joined by DJ Johnson, a fellow parenting coach and my first guest dad on the podcast. With a specialty in working with teens, he’ll share with us his personal parenting philosophies and how he’s been working with parents to inspire and motivate them to build healthy and genuine connections with their kids. A true village doesn’t try tearing down its members. We can work towards listening and supporting one another so we are the best versions of ourselves, and in turn, position our kids to be their own best selves too. So don’t miss out on this amazing episode!

What Changes a Child’s Behavior
788
We parents have been taught that our children’s behavior must be corrected through punishments and manipulations, and sadly, this has been accepted as the default mode of parenting. And when compounding other stressors in lives, it becomes so easy to unconsciously fall back on that out of desperation to change their behavior. So I want to talk about where we should focus when it comes to our children’s behavior. Looking inward and self-reflecting on our own behavior is a critical factor in transforming our relationship with our children into a healthier one. You’d be surprised at how willingly children will open up to us when we make an active effort to change, so please make sure to listen in on this episode!

How to Be Empathetic When Our Kids Are Being Defiant with Guest Liz
1702
Defiant and strong-willed children are something I’m sure we’ve all experienced. Whether it’s as toddlers or teenagers, it’s a tale as old as time in the book of parenting. Sometimes when this defiance is targeted towards you or their siblings, it can lead to further conflict so you want to find a way to properly nip that in the bud. As a mother of two young girls, my guest, Liz, is no stranger to these frustrations so she and I will discuss her dynamics with her daughters, how to manage conflict and negative emotions in their family, and the importance of taking care of herself because even mommies need a little self-care too. The path of connective parenting is a lot of hard work, but the loving relationship we’ll create with our kids will make all of it worth it, so make sure to tune into this episode!

Harsh Parenting Creates Children Who Make More Mistakes
865
When your child makes a mistake, you want to help them process and understand their mistake without the use of shame, punishments, or making them feel like you’re disappointed in them. Harsh parenting does absolutely no favors for us or our kids, and as a parent who used to subscribe to that kind of parenting, I want to take the time to talk about this, and share how shifting my mindset towards a more conscious and connective one has done more good for my family than any punishment has. There are no shortcuts to connective parenting but I hope this episode can help you get started!

Why Is Play So Hard Sometimes with Guest Emily Murray from Hand in Hand Parenting
1337
Many of us have had experiences with bottling up emotions, and kids are no exceptions to this. Kids aren’t as capable of properly communicating their emotions so when there’s a backlog of feelings like frustration and sadness, this can make them act out so they can vent. This can be equally frustrating for parents too but it is possible to connect with your kids in a way they can easily understand. For this episode, I’m joined by Emily, a member from the Hand in Hand Parenting group and she will share with us one of their five listening tools for parents-- playlistening! Play is an important aspect of kids’ lives and it can be used as a better response to unsavory behavior over shame and encourages you to meet aggression with affection. Hand in Hand Parenting has been instrumental in my journey to become a better parent for my daughters, and I hope this will help any of you having similar struggles so don’t forget to listen in!

Behavior Analysis and Parenting: Questions from Guest Shelly
1563
Our kids have the right to say “no” and have choices. But it’s a delicate balancing act between that and making sure not to give in to everything they say either. Since kids also have underdeveloped brains, it can be difficult for them to properly communicate their negative emotions which can put them into conflict with their parents and other kids. This challenge is a natural frustration for parents and is something my guest is familiar with. Shelly Belk, behavior change coach and mother, joins me for this episode to ask me questions on parenting, and how she can better reconcile her background in behavior analysis while raising her daughter with empathy. We’ll always discuss the importance of allowing our children to experience and fail; to be the counselor and confidant rather than the fixer of their problems. Don’t miss out on this week’s episode so we can help our kids navigate their feelings and create healthier connections with them!

The Case Against The Cry It Out Method with Guest Rachel from Hey Sleepy Baby
1354
For many parents, the first six to twelve months of their baby’s life are probably one of the most stressful thanks to sleep deprivation. The emotional and physical toll of listening to your baby cry isn’t easy, but it’s important to realize that it’s just as stressful for them as their body and brain try to adjust to life outside of the womb. For this week’s episode, I’ve invited Rachel, a pediatric sleep specialist, to share with us her experience and realizations with sleep training her baby, and how it isn’t as easy as tucking them into bed and calling it a night. So listen in on this episode as Rachel shares her experience, and I offer ways to help ease this adjustment period!

Presence vs. Fixing with Guest Rivkie

How to Stop Yelling
878
When we believe our children are being difficult, we tend to use yelling to make them listen to us. But yelling can only go so far before it starts to form cracks in the relationship with our kids and leave them with emotional scars that might never go away. At some point, we need to ask ourselves: Is my child’s obedience worth losing their love and respect? In this solo episode, I share my experience of being a parent who used to yell and how I continue to overcome that urge with hopes that I can encourage other parents to do the same. Remember, the road of parenthood is not paved with fear, but with love.
Episode Highlights:
Looking for ways to parent without yelling or threatening? Do you want to start using connection to better handle and guide your kids? I know I’ve definitely been there. Through my years of learning and experience, I’ve started to reach out and help other parents overcome their parenting challenges with a much calmer and empathetic approach.

Chitra’s Journey into Connective Parenting
1680
Traditionally, children are meant to obey their parents without question and any sign of defiance is met with punishment. We believe that our child’s behavior is a reflection of us as parents and that opens us up to judgment from others. No one wants to be labeled as a “bad parent” but just because something is accepted as the norm doesn’t always mean it’s automatically right either. Chitra Peña, a member of the Peace and Parenting community, sits down with me to share her story and experiences in moving towards a more conscious parenting method and its results-- including her relationship with her children and her confidence in herself as a parent. Additionally, we’ll also dive into the effects of conventional parenting on the emotional well-being of both the parents and children. Don’t forget to tune into this episode so we can help you forge a healthier relationship with your family!

The Power of Listening Partners with Cassie and Lindsay
1759
Parents try to prop themselves up as these invincible figures who aren’t affected by sadness or fear, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. They have their own fair share of anxieties and trauma; and when all of that just builds up, it starts to leak into other aspects of their lives. When that happens, it’s good to have someone who's willing to empathize and listen. For this episode, I’ve invited two members of the Peace and Parenting community, Cassie and Lindsay. They have been listening partners for over a year and they will share with us how opening up to another person and learning to listen has aided them in becoming better parents and partners. Join us for this episode as we discuss the importance of connection and how we can lend each other a listening ear.

Untigering with Iris Chen
1552
Parenting shouldn’t be synonymous with control, but for my guest, Iris Chen, this was her reality while growing up in an Asian-American household. Our childhood experiences can shape what kind of parents we’ll become to our kids; but as their parents, it is our role to guide and care for them while also respecting their own autonomy. This is the realization that Iris came to when she saw her tiger parenting was driving her son away from her. Iris is the author of the book, Untigering, where she shares her experience of being a tiger parent and her journey of pulling away from cultural norms for a more empathetic and respectful approach to parenting while also redefining what it means to be a successful parent. Don’t forget to listen to this episode to help develop a more peaceful and healthier relationship with your kids!

Listening to Big Feelings Creates More Safety with Guest Cara

Aggression is the product of a child who isn’t doing so well. Be it from frustration they can’t communicate well, or other factors that we as parents cannot always understand.

In this episode, I explain how else we can curb aggression by listening to feelings and allowing them to download while protecting ourselves as well. This definitely isn’t going to be an easy or instant fix-- but the payoff is worth it and if you listen to the end you will hear an amazing update.

Sometimes when our child is having a hard time of course we want to fix things, help them see the bright side.

Do Our Children Have the Right to Say “No” with Guest Sterna
1385
When our child says “no” it can send us into emotional turmoil both because of how we were raised and how society views a child who stands up for themselves. But no doesn’t need to be a dirty word, and our children need to have the space to explore standing up for themselves. If they aren’t allowed to do it at home how can they ever set boundaries as they grow up. What of yes too, if we are insisting on “yes” is that yes we receive authentic or is it coerced somehow and only used as a way to please us?
Sterna is my guest today, she helps us unravel this sticky parenting moment, and gives us her incredible insights into why no is more than just a child being defiant on purpose and ways we can work through the moments when our children use no.
Episode Highlights:
How can we “shame proof” our parenting? There are ways we can eradicate shame from our everyday interactions with our children. Building in ways to address our children can promote resilience and self-esteem rather than jeopardizing these precious commodities for our children. Nobody wants to shame, but sometimes we need a little help figuring out what else we can do. Click here to download the FREE guide now - https://www.peaceandparentingla.com/shame-opt-in

Using Connection to Help with Aggression with Guest Ashley
1714
Aggression is a common occurrence in children and we see it often when there’s a new sibling. It is a fear response and one that can be tricky to unravel. If we take a global look at our child and work on ways to build in connective practices while also allowing the tantrum to fully occur we can get movement with aggression. Long time listener Ashley fully understands the modes of Peace and Parenting it’s just a pep talk she needs to reassure her she’s on the right path.

Resilience

How do we promote resilience in our child and use the tenets of Peace and Parenting? Does being a kind loving parent mean our children will not be able to handle the cruel world? Perhaps empathy and kindness is exactly what allows our children to build in self esteem and the ability to recover from hard things. Episode Highlights:

How to Use Connection to Help Move Through Thumb Sucking
1892
Kids have different ways to cope with stressful situations. Some resort to more vocal ways-- while others tend to go inward as a way to cope with what’s hard in life. It’s hard for us to know exactly how to approach them with love and kindness while still helping them move through tough behavior. Joining me this episode is a follower and active participant on the Facebook group, Jillian. Jillian, like so many of us, struggles with a behavior that she can’t quite figure out how to navigate. We take a look at the whole child, the underlying and the more obvious and try to find ways to meet her daughter where she is using connection. I know others struggle with thumb sucking and pacifiers and hope this episode is helpful.

The Case Against Mindfulness Jars and Cool-Down Corners
889
At some point in your child’s life, they will experience things which may cause overwhelm, and we won't be able to prevent them from feeling these tough emotions. However, we can be the safe place for them to be when things are tough. Having deep empathy for our children and allowing them to fully emote helps those feelings pass, be processed so our child can move forward and be the cooperative kind kid they are meant to be. Mindfulness Jars, Cool Down Corners and Breathing Techniques may "get" kids to calm down, but at what expense? Where have the feelings gone and what will then glean from our expectation of calm? Listen in as Michelle explains just this.

Self-Healing and Conscious Motherhood with Jennifer Gardner
1518
There are tons of ways to cope with the inevitable challenges brought about by motherhood, and it doesn't always have to be something that involves alcohol. When you have a very demanding job and very demanding kids plus a husband you need to take care of, it can get very overwhelming. You're tired and sometimes, you just turn to drink alcohol to help ease your burden a little bit. Wine is a good way to treat yourself for a job well done but turning to alcohol to deal with your kids and responsibilities at home ain't funny. You want to raise your kids the best way possible but you're unsure of how to do it with everything that you got on your plate. What should you do? In this episode, I'm joined by Jennifer Gardner, a lovely member of our community and a mother of two. Jennifer's going to share how the method of parenting that she discovered changed the way in which she approaches motherhood, parenting, and ultimately helped her become a better version of herself! This conversation with Jennifer will remind you of why you wanted to be a parent and the joy of being one as she talks about her healing journey, and that there is another way to parent, one that helps you connect with your child!

Redefining Parenting: Cooperation, Not Control with Hannah and Kelty of Upbringing
1569
Resistance is just something that comes with parenting, be it telling our kids to turn off their phones or brush their teeth. But-- that doesn’t always have to be the case. We as parents can make the conscious choice to prioritise our personal relationships, using them to teach our kids what has to be done for themselves, effectively building up their own independence and self-control. In today's episode, I have Kelty and Hannah from Upbringing, here to discuss a new approach to connecting with our kids, so we can raise young adults that have a stronger sense of self and a more stable approach to life. They believe that by choosing to connect with our kids instead of controlling them, it can result in a relationship that positively reinforces self-discipline and accomplishing tasks for themselves-- instead of them simply following our words.
Episode Highlights:
About our Guests:
Hannah and Kelty currently run Upbringing-- an inclusive community that promotes the elevation of growth and connection. Through their beliefs in parenting, they work to redefine how we raise our kids while avoiding the conventional beliefs of old. Holding a Bachelor of Arts Degree from Stanford, the two have grown to become certified Parent Educators through the Positive Discipline Association, Family Life Coaches, and completed programs that focus on mindfulness-based stress reduction.

Fears
1321
We, as parents, want to help our children overcome their fears and reason them away with simple messages like, "there are no monsters in the closet," "just jump in the water, you'll be fine," or "there's no such thing as the boogie man." But does this really help them overcome the fear itself? Or do they just shove it down to appease us? We are talking about why we sit through all the fears that come up in childhood and how to facilitate a safe space for them to process and eventually come to terms with their fears.

We have come to realize it actually makes them act out even more and the cycle of shame continues. Listen to how we avoid shame in all aspects.

Hurtful Words from Our Children
1202
Our kids can really hurt our feelings at times and make us feel the need to eradicate certain language from their vocabulary. When they say they want a new mommy or they hate us or their siblings, we believe them; why wouldn't we? We're going to discuss why we choose not to believe them or take it personally and how we manage to let them have those big feelings and still come out with our connection intact. It takes a lot of practice but it has worked for both of us! Thank you so much for all the support on our Patreon, Facebook community group and Instagram!! We appreciate you all so much!

If you're wondering how to teach right and wrong, how to encourage your kids to listen, "behave," and how to gain their respect, this episode is for you. We use limits to say no but we come with kindness and empathy so there is no severing of our connection with our children.

Parenting Through Judgement from Other Parents and Family

I Won't Leave You

Are your children bored, antsy and having more big feelings during quarantine? When it all comes to a head, we want it to stop as fast as possible and so do they. They often tell us to go away, leave them alone or they go in their room until they're calm. But where did those feelings go? We're discussing why we tell our kids we won't leave them when they're upset and we choose to sit through it all.

Transitions

Parenting Peacefully Isn't Always Easy Part One
1463
Have you ever been so dedicated to doing something, working all the angles, putting in all the time and effort and there are still days when it just doesn't work? You know about connection, you use it, you even do Special Time and listen to big feelings. With all that hard work you just want the pay-off the regulated behavior and the calm child. It doesn't seem fair or kind or at all manageable at times. Quite frankly it isn't, this parenting thing is far from fair or easy. Listen in as we try to give our good friend, Casey, a place to discuss what is hard about parenting with more peace. This episode is a real look at a parenting challenge and a kind loving mom who finds herself in the thick of things just like the rest of us, every single day.
