Well-intentioned experts (myself included) are coming out with information and research on the effects of trauma and its impact on our lives. There's a collective awareness brewing that we've all been traumatized a little...and so many parents are becoming afraid of traumatizing their own kids.

Maybe you're letting go of the idea of the perfect appearance, a Pinterest birthday party, or the perfect family (good for you!). But if you're still worried that with every argument, angry outburst, or less-than-perfect reaction you're F-ing-up your kid, this podcast is for you. 

As I tell all students and parents I work with: there are no bad emotions - it's what you do with them that matters. If you're reading this you're an imperfect human being, and expecting yourself to not have a full range of emotions is expecting the impossible. Are you getting better at showing up for your middle schooler? But you're forgetting to have patience with your own imperfect self? 

Perfect parenting is for the birds. Listen in to learn what you both really need!
