Listen Later

Do you ever look ahead to summer and feel a mix of excitement and dread—wondering if the constant battles will leave you counting down the days until school starts again? 

In this short episode of our weekly podcast, we’ll explore gentle parenting strategies that make summer smoother and more joyful, even when challenges arise.

By the time you finish listening, you’ll know:

  • What to do when you reach the end of your rope so you can respond with calm confident parenting instead of frustration
  • How to solve the five most common summer trouble spots—toys, technology, treats, morning routines, and evening routines—with positive parenting strategies
  • The single most important phrase to stop saying if you want to reduce tension and strengthen your parent-child connection
  • The best-kept secret to creating more ease in your days—a simple mindset shift that will help you stop power struggles with kids

These calm parenting tips will help you set limits with kind and firm parenting, ease anxiety & emotions, and create a home environment where raising confident kids feels more possible—even in the chaos of summer.
