Failing Motherhood

156. The Path to Stop Feeling Powerless in your Parenting with Laura + Mike


Listen Later

Today you get a true behind the scenes look at what parenting a strong-willed child looks like at someone else's house.

Laura and Mike are full-time working parents with 3 kids living in Minneapolis.


Just a few months ago, they describe what parenting felt like - powerless, volatile, unpredictable. They felt lost, with no toolkit and no shared understanding.


After sharing the barriers they had to overcome to get support, they narrate what really stuck with them through the work that they did on themselves through their time inside Wholeheartedly CALM, my 3 month group coaching program.


They both describe the feeling of empowerment they found through a lot of self reflection and just how amazing it feels to get to enjoy their kids more again. Their kids enjoy being enjoyed as well!

IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVERED…

  • The power of language - small tweaks have a huge impact on cooperation
  • Ways to take your power back as a parent, while empowering your child at the same time
  • The topic Laura + Mike truly appreciated having shame-free conversations about

DON’T MISS:

  • It matters more what we do than what we say
