*Trigger Warning*: The first 16 minutes of this episode discuss the topics of infertility and pregnancy loss.

"It's shifting from that old paradigm of that harsh discipline, of like, the child is an extension of us, and the fixing, and the behavior-based, and the time-outs, and the rules, and the achievement-based - it's more like just that processing it together, living it together. It's needs-based, it's about listening. It's no shaming, no fixing."

Why do you parent the way that you do? In this episode, the amazing Jennifer Hepton, Conscious Parenting Coach, walks you through the process of 1) understanding your triggers and where they came from, and 2) forgiving yourself for them. In this, she focuses on meeting your children where they are without the need to shame or "fix" them. It's truly a life-giving episode and cannot be missed!
