Today we go there...the dreaded discussion about screen time. In this solo episode I delve into both the research and my own personal experiences and opinions on the topic of screen time and our children. We go over the do's and dont's, what it does to our children's brains, the aspirational and the realistic boundaries to set, and more.

Did you just fight with your kids?? Did you just lose it on them? Then you are in the right place. This unique episode of Raise the Room is a 20 minute meditation with the theme of Repair. We must first repair with ourselves, and then hopefully we can get some clarity on how to repair with our kids. The intention here simply is to provide you with a freebie to help you regulate and remember that YOU'VE GOT THIS.

Ah yes, BIG FEELINGS..we know them well as parents, don't we? Did you happen to unwrap the snack that they asked you to unwrap and now they're having a tantrum about it?? Today's episode is here to help us handle those moments. I share a handful of my favourite parenting tools to help us navigate our children's big feelings like a champ. Though it should be stated, these 'tools' might not be exactly what you're thinking about. This is because we know in long-game parenting, the quick fixes are few and far between.

Today's mini episode is a little life update from me and quite honestly, a ramble. I talk about my upcoming move, where my head is at with parenting through this transition, and my health/body image lately.
I also note how the podcast might be a little inconsistent and/or messy over the next couple of months while we potentially buy, sell and relocate our family to a new town!

This episode is me spilling my guts about a very hard time in my life, how it was connected to my childhood and how I view it now. I will be honest and say this episode tripped me up a few times, as it felt weird sharing about it all. I was battling the feelings of "is this a story even worth telling?" Alas, here it is, be gentle with me.

This episode covers what I think are the two most vital aspects of the human design chart in regards to relationships: energy and feelings. Because sometimes, we just simply don't 'get' each other.
We discuss how sacral and emotional definition greatly affect how we experience the world, and how we can utilize this understanding to better understand our partners (and important people in our life in general)! I also take a couple listener questions and offer some helpful phrases for keeping your relationship in alignment.

TW: Miscarriage minute 24:00-25:15.
Today we chat with my cousin Kristina Founk, a Registered Clinical Hypnotherapist. We delve into what hypnotherapy is, what a client session looks like with her and how it can support you in a variety of areas of your life. We spend quite some time discussing anxiety; Kristina shares her story on how hypnotherapy helped her overcome a level of anxiety that was holding her back from experiencing joy in her daily life. We touch on motherhood, theorize about hypnotizing our kids, and more.

This episode discusses the not-so-fun experience of being triggered by our kids; whether they're toddlers or teens, they can (and do) set us off.
I share 4 insights/truths I've noticed about this particular dynamic (because believe me, I'm very experienced with it); ways to support both ourselves and our kids through it with "The 4 S's"; some personal examples and then some listeners' triggering situations. We do of course weave in some human design elements, as mismatches in design can provide some triggering moments; but having awareness of your family's design can be very supportive in working through this!

This Projector Highlight episode is with one of my dear friends, Chelsea Jeheber, from She Makes Bank. Chelsea and I discuss her journey from being a psychic channel to becoming a business 'un-coach', navigating her break-up and moving back in with her dad in her 30s, and how she supports women reach their goals to create a feminine led business. Chelsea is intelligent, down to earth and very real. Oh, and she does discuss her handsome dog Louie a lot, so dog lovers this one is for you, too.

Today I'm discussing who I am--and yes it includes a brief overview of my Human Design chart because you will soon learn, that is how we roll here--; the intentions for this podcast as a space for parenting, personal development and human design insights; and the overall rhythm of the show.
Specifically, I discuss some of my birth story with my eldest son and how it was a massive initiation for me, some of the struggles I faced all my life with codependency, how I found human design, and more.
