  • Eps 511: Avoiding fear-based parenting with Dr. Tina Bryson
    Sep 2 2024
    Dr. Tina Bryson is BACK today! I love her work, and I’m so excited she’s here to talk about launching our teens, which is incredibly timely after I dropped my youngest child off at college yesterday! Dr. Bryson shares her wisdom on avoiding fear-based parenting & reminds us that development & maturation happens no matter what - maybe we don’t need to worry quite so much. She explains what the “right” amount of support is and why kids need to make mistakes & take risks to become wiser and more responsible. Dr. Bryson shares her own personal stories about launching two of her teens to college and how & why they were so different. Dr. Bryson wraps us up by giving dos & don'ts for when your adolescent is in distress. We want to problem solve, criticize, or minimize, but instead, we can respond in a way that invites them to keep sharing things with us: by offering empathy & letting them solve their own problem. Takeaways from the show How do you know when & what you need to really worry about regarding your child(ren)? When are you wasting energy? Avoiding fear-based parenting Kids have to make mistakes & take risks in service of becoming wiser and more responsible “The way our children build resilience is through adversity with the right amount of support from us” Not burdening our teens with our feelings The excitement & hopes we have for our adolescents and the grief & anxiety we have when they leave How to respond (and how not to respond) when your adolescent reaches out to you in distress We’re not launching full formed adults - we’re launching baby adults who will keep learning & developing For more show notes, including transcripts, visit our website here.

  • Summer throwback - Eps 460: Get past resistance and focus on relationship with your teen
    Aug 29 2024
    This show was a no-brainer to reshare with you all. When I recorded it, I was so fired up, and had our boys on the brain. So many of my clients and people in the community struggle with their boys. Not only struggling with their boys, but struggling to soften to the idea that the hard time the family is moving through is really a call for deeper relationship. Listen in to hear more – and don’t worry, no matter the gender your child identifies as, you will still find value in this conversation.

    Aug 26 2024
    Katie Connolly, a Somatic Parenting Coach, teaches me a whole lot about our nervous system and somatic tools when she drops by this week. Katie explains how our nervous system and birthing experiences tie-in to our personal growth, who highly-sensitive people are & indicators, and why we’re able to better navigate experiences and stay connected in our bodies when we nourish our nervous system. We hit on so much this week: breathing exercises, meditation, scheduling-in time for ourselves, overstimulation, trauma, adoption, boundaries, co-regulation, and more. Katie ends by sharing specific tools and breathing patterns to try out at home. Takeaways from the show Understanding & supporting our nervous system and how that fits in with self-growth Traumatic birthing experiences Sympathetic nervous system versus parasympathetic nervous system Each parent-child relationship is completely unique Highly-sensitive people & indicators Everyone has trauma in their lineage Different breathing exercises & patterns Short meditations Nourishing & making time for yourself realistically Co-regulation & the family nervous system For more show notes, including transcripts, visit our website here.
