Connective Parenting is Hard

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!

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. I created a course: Understanding Big Emotions which was created to teach this exact skill. The skill of empathy and listening in all scenarios. From setting limits to supporting disappointment. Something we likely did not experience in our own childhoods but craved.
