The Post-Separation Abuse Podcast

60. Breaking the cycle: Three important steps to protective parenting


Listen Later

Navigating life after separation requires more than just knowing what your children need - it demands the capacity to advocate for them even when it's deeply uncomfortable. In this groundbreaking episode, I reveal my proprietary framework that's transformed hundreds of parents from conflict avoidant to genuinely protective.

The Three Steps to Protective Parenting® framework addresses the missing link in most post-separation advice. While professionals typically focus on providing information - communication scripts, legal strategies, parenting tips - they overlook the crucial element of capacity building. This oversight explains why so many parents remain stuck, unable to implement what they know is right for their children.

Capacity grows through gradually and intentionally facing manageable discomfort - not avoiding it. When you practice pausing before reacting to triggers, you're literally rewiring neural pathways between your prefrontal cortex and limbic system. This isn't just feel-good advice; it's neuroscience.

Ready to begin building your protective capacity today? Use the link to take on the Capacity Challenge, complete with printable PDF guide.

For comprehensive support, join the waitlist for the Post-Separation Parenting Blueprint launching later in September 2025, or book a one-on-one coaching call at danielleblackcoaching.com.au. Your children need you to be more than informed - they need you capable of acting even when it's difficult, and I'm here to help.
