Are you focused on your child's behavior and wanting them to behave a certain way? Do you believe that it’s a reflection of you, and how good your kids are? Today’s episode is for you.
Come dive deep with me into how you can focus in on you instead. How you can change how you react, how you respond, how you feel, and in turn how that is going to model the behavior that you want to see from your kids, and shape their life in a positive way.
Don’t miss these highlights:
2:48 When you start positive, gentle parenting, it’s not saying that you are going to be perfect or completely absent of yelling or making mistakes 3:34 Our kids are witnessing a relationship rupture, and also a genuine heartfelt repair 5:39 You are going to make mistakes, be reminded that nothing is lost, breathe deep and teach them how to respond rather than react 6:52 It’s about learning to let go of our expectations of who our kids should be, or turn out to be, and instead open yourself up to the truth of who they are 8:51 You are laying the foundation for future emotional wellbeing 10:21 Give yourself all the grace, be kind to yourself. You are anointed and qualified for the assignment of Mother. 11:38 As you go into this week, focus on enjoying your kids.Peace Starts With You Team

Do you wish you could lead your kids from sibling rivalry to a state of peace? This episode is for you. Sometimes we think “it's just my kids' personalities” or “they're just never gonna be friends.” But, we as parents can intensify the competition or we can reduce it. We can drive hostile feelings underground, or we can allow them to be vented safely. We can accelerate the fighting or we can make cooperation possible. Peace starts with you.
Below is an overview of the episode.
1:27 How we teach our kids to self regulate and handle emotions 5:32 Fear, aloneness and control are not effective 9:44 Attitudes and the skills that you can equip your child with to support them in relationships as they grow 11:43 Find your calm, connect to the moment, and be that thermostat for your kidsPeace Starts With You Team

We are finally back for season 2 and I am so excited about the episodes that I have lined up for you! In this weeks episode I talk about different approaches I've taken with each one of my boys during our season break. All three of them are different in their own ways so when they are upset it's so important to me to work through it with them in a way that makes them feel heard.

Navigating through the messiness of parenting can be exhausting. Between taking care of the kids, the busyness of your home, and spending time with your husband, taking time to just soak it all up can feel impossible. It’s important to slow down to acknowledge the opportunities that arise to teach your children about how to navigate through the world. Through each of those moments you have the privilege to make your kids feel deeply loved in an unconditional way. Many times fear based parenting parenting may be your default response when you find yourself in a difficult parenting situation. Step back from using fear and force and teach with compassion and grace. Leading with self control will help them become self confident about problem solving.

Being intentional about what you are working towards makes a huge difference, especially in the home. As mothers, we have the privilege to set the tone of our home for our husband and children. Choosing to be happy over any other emotion takes a lot of work but it will make a lasting impression. Don’t allow the distractions of life keep you from making it a priority for you home to feel safe.

When we regulate our emotions it is teaching our children how to regulate theirs. Your child deserves to be heard, even when they resist, cry, and complain. In those moments engage them by asking what they think needs to be done. Discipline is an approach that helps a child solve a problem while punishment simply making a child suffer for having a problem. Leading them to think less of themselves.

Being completely available to your kids can feel nearly impossibly when you think of the mountain of tasks that you need to get done around the house. Being a homemaker can get overwhelming from time to time but the reality is no one else is responsible for managing your home but you. The beauty is that you approach that duty with such a joy once you get your focus right. You have the ability to foster connection with your kids by simply being intentional. Know that it is such an honor to be able to remind your kids of their goodness.
