Back to school is upon us! If you have a stage 5 clinger like I do, this can be a hard moment for both them and you. This morning I had to fight back some tears as well and put on a sturdy face so I could support my son on his first day in a new school and new grade.
In this episode I share how to help your children feel more safety inside during this transition. I also share a few rituals that have helped me in the past and ways to stay grounded as the parent.
I wish you all the best of luck as we all head back to school!

In this episode I piggyback off of Episode 47 which talks about our low self worth loops as parents. This episode talks about that inner feeling, that inner knowing that you have to shed an old belief system in order to truly step into the parent that you want to be.

I am so excited to share this episode with you! I do a deep dive into what my community looks like! I share the 5 stages inside the community and what you could expect from each stage. I share that no matter where you start, there is no shame, no expectations of how fast you grow or how you âperformâ inside this community.
The community group is my baby :) I have designed this space to give you endless opportunities for growth and support. A place where you can feel seen, feel heard and understood maybe for the first time in your parenting journey. So that you can shed the parts of parenthood that do not serve you and truly step into your path. A path that feels joyful, simple, less triggering, less chaotic, less guilt ridden.
The beauty of this community is right now - itâs in its infancy. YOU get to shape the content and the direction! YOU share with me what's going on, what you need, where youâre frustrated or struggling and I will build the path for you to follow so that you can move through this without as much struggle, pain and confusion.

I have said many times that threats, bribes, consequences and punishments donât work very well. And I get A LOT of feedback (nice way to say nasty comments đ) in my feed about how these are necessary to teach our kids how to be âreal world ready.â And how else are they going to learn how to act appropriately if they donât have punishments when they act out of turn?
This episode addresses just that!
I share in this episode how Iâve been able to remove threats, bribes, punishments and imposed consequences AND how Iâve been able to teach the lessons, instill the values and teach my kids how to act appropriately without all of that!
I share my system of value based boundaries and how our âbubbleâ gets bigger and smaller based on their abilities to live inside these values.
Itâs a shame-free framework that works so well and Iâm excited to share this with you!

I share a vulnerable moment in time for me in this episode. My oldest son and I are not jiving and the frustration is level 10 what seems like most of the dayâŠand most days. I can do all the work in the world and sometimes itâs a simple visual that helps me in moments of conflict, chaos and challenge.
We often find ourselves facing two paths in parenting. One is so incredibly easy to take because weâve been there so so so many times. Itâs easy because our neural pathways are strong and deep and the pattern has been repeated so many times. But it doesnât feel right and many times we are simply at a crossroads, unsure of how to handle the situation.
This episode is about that crossroads.

I am so excited for you to hear from Katelynn. Katelynn is a mom to a very strong-willed 3.5 year old. When she and I first started coaching her daughter was having several meltdowns a day that lasted for a minimum of an hour and sometimes stretched closer to 2. Katelynn felt like she was failing, she was overwhelmed with all the advice she was seeing on her feed and just needed relief.
She looked at coaching with me as a one stop shop to get all of the support, tools and resources she needed to succeed in parenting. What she got was a total transformation of not only her parenting but of her belief in self, communication style and so much more.
Youâll hear from Katelynn about what our time together coaching looked like and her ah-ha moments. I am excited for you to listen!

In this episode, I break down my progression of low self-worth loops that began in childhood and share how that has affected my parenting. This is not a bashing session on my parents, rather itâs a deeper understanding of how we, as kids, can start to internally code these really repetitive interactions with our parents. When there is shame, constant correction, lectures, etc. itâs very easy to internalize these moments as âbadâ or âwrongâ and therefore we begin to view ourselves as âbadâ or âwrong.â
When our kidâs way of expressing themselves doesnât match our expectations we have to be very careful with how we step in to correct. Our child might morph into the âbehavedâ child we want to see, but what is going on for them internally? What stories are they telling themselves about their character, their abilities, their level of self-worth?
One of the greatest lessons Iâm learning as a parent is that even if we are coming to parenting with the best of intentions, we need to make sure we attune to and match our childâs way of expressing thoughts and feelings. We need to meet them where THEY are at, verses expect them to rise to our level.Additionally I share a tool that I use myself and that my clients use in order to get more clarity and context around why we are so incredibly triggered at certain times.

In this episode, I give you a framework to follow when you find yourself stuck in a power struggle with your kids. This isnât a rigid script to follow, rather a framework to assist you in some of the most frustrating moments in parenting.
When our wants collide with our childâs wants - we end up feeling resistance. WE understand that feeling and we might have some coping strategies, but more often than not we feel like we have to justify, explain or force our way to end it.
I think what often happens is we go to extremes. We either give into their resistance or we go hard and power over to get what needs to get done, done.
One of the smartest things we can do as parents is just to drop our side of the power struggle. That means we just donât take the bait and jump into the boxing ring with our kids.
1: Drop our side of the power struggle
2: Focus on our nervous system: https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.responseableparenting.com/podcast/ep-44-what-are-grounding-techniques&sa=D&source=docs&ust=1718637147858375&usg=AOvVaw21L8fsF9X2VC2lUAQi9rqF
3: Make a statement
4: Give them a choice
When we follow this framework everyone wins. We hold our boundary, what needs to happen gets done, our child feels validated and seen and they have a bit of control of how it looks (even if itâs not their ideal version).

Iâm the assistant coach on my sonâs little league team this season. And Iâm noticing the proclivity of parents (myself included at times) to demand excellence. I link this back to when I was young and noticed that my brotherâs naturally high achieving abilities never got lectured. But I was lectured ALLLL the time. So I started achieving more, and more, and more and yet the lectures never stopped. I was chronically stressed out about my performance. I linked achievement to connection and hoped that with enough Iâd be free of the lectures.
I ultimately transferred this chaotic energy into eating disorders, workaholism, perfectionism and a lot of self criticism.
This baseball season has been a great learning moment for me because itâs allowed me to remember this pressure and reframe what Iâm encouraging and what Iâm letting go of.

I am really excited about this episode! I share a brief overview of the nervous system and why we feel the way we feel in triggering moments. I also break down how to start reading your bodyâs cues so you can utilize grounding tools to regulate your nervous system and show up the way you want vs. reacting from a dysregulated state.
Youâll get several practical in the moment strategies to use to calm down, even just a tiny bit. Regulation doesnât equal calm, regulation is being able to access these tools and choose your response even when youâre flooded with emotions.
For this week Iâm opening up my community group! You can tap into even more nervous system regulation techniques and take the workshop co-hosted by Nervous System Expert Tanicia Baynes!

My sonâs new favorite phrase âYouâre mean!!â Part of me wants to prove that they are right! But deep down I know that is not a connective response. In this episode Iâm talking about the reactions that happen from our kids after we set a boundary. More often than not, they are going to negotiate to get that boundary to change - and when it doesnât theyâre going to react from a defensive state. I offer a perspective shift for those moments when our kidâs words cut a bit and press on old wounds. I offer a perspective that you can hold onto so that you can stay grounded and on the path of responsive parenting.
In this episode I break down holding a boundary and being able to manage the waves of emotions from your children that are bound to happen as a result. I share how you can hold a boundary AND hold their feelings at the same time.

Glennon Doyle: âWe are not being taught how to human, we are being taught how to adult.â
In this episode I unpack a passing quote that I heard on the podcast We Can Do Hard Things. It was said in a flash and they moved on but it stuck with me on my whole walk so I wanted to dive further into this concept of learning how to be human vs. learning how to be an adult.
I explore how feeling is an essential part of the human experience. And how we as conscious, emotionally mature, responsive parents are trying to open ourselves up to embrace this and encourage this growth and development within our children. And at the same time come up against our own programming, expectations and fears that limit our scope of what should be allowed.

95% of moms feel guilty. And only 19% of dadâs say they feel guilty about parenting. This episode shines a light on a few reasons why moms tend to feel more guilty than dads.
Guilt can be helpful when we have acted outside of our value system.
Guilt is not helpful when we believe that we are bad because of our actions. When guilt begins to shape the way we look at ourselves and becomes a leading force in our identity then guilt is without a doubt unhelpful.
We have been conditioned as women especially as mothers as to how we SHOULD act. And âshouldâ lives next to shame. And when we donât operate exactly in that vision that is cast for us by society then we can feel judged, shame and guilty for not living up to the unrealistic expectations that have been presented to us.
As mentioned here is the Guilt Free Mini Course
For $7 you will get 7 videos and journal prompts to begin your journey of removing guilt from your life and parenting!

In this episode I break down something Sasha (from the interview in episode 37) said about why he respected his parents so much. And it came down to the fact that they spent so much time seeking to understand what was going on for him. They didnât come to the table with assumptions and past stories clouding their judgment of the present moment. Instead, they led with curiosity and really tried to understand what was going on for him in each challenging moment.
This type of parenting modeled to him what respect looked like. And monkey see monkey do - he now respects his parents ENDLESSLY!
Itâs a beautiful way to think about the way we show up! When we show up with curiosity and the desire to understand we are satisfying the primal need for connection, shortening the meltdowns, discovering the root of the behavior (the unmet need) and modeling what it looks like to show respect.I cannot wait to hear your thoughts!

In this episode I take the lessons we learned in episode 34 about how to engage our children differently so they are more ready, willing and able to collaborate with us, and I share how we as parents need to have these essential buckets filled as well.
I dive into the 4 buckets:
Power / Control
Connection / Attention
Regulation
PlayI share how we as parents can shift our mindset even if we cannot shift the structure of our days. I share how we can tune in and really show up for ourselves in a way that leads to more inner safety, less inner chaos and critique, which ultimately expands our tolerance. And when we have this expansion we can ultimately handle a lot more from our children.
When we attune to these 4 buckets regularly for ourselves we begin to embody this practice of responsive parenting.
