Have you ever caught yourself googling the right thing to say to your child in a heated moment, hoping that one perfect phrase might be the magic fix? Scripts can feel like a safety net when we’re trying to shift how we parent. In today’s episode of Parenting Through Connection, I’m unpacking the deeper reason parenting scripts sometimes fall short, and how focusing on presence and intention builds more connection than any memorized line.

Here’s what we’re covering in today’s episode:

• When parenting scripts help and when they start to create pressure
• Why kids don’t respond to words alone
• How chasing the “perfect” response can backfire
• Ways to re-ground in hard parenting moments
• How to centre your words in what truly matters, not what sounds right

I’m here to help you show up more confidently as yourself. My self-paced course teaches you how to parent from a place of steadiness and connection, not performance or perfection.
