Class starts Oct 1, 2024

Aaron & Jenna interview their 7 year old daughter, Rosie- to talk about their habits as a family around teaching their kids about to be aware of their emotions.

Habits we chat through

  • doing the Emotion Wheel as a family @ dinner:  Download your free copy here
  • our emphasis on "you can connect with their sad & it doesn't mean you're bad.
  • Rocket Ships: visual pictures we give them to give words to how they're feeling when overwhelmed with emotions
  • different approaches for our kids with different personalities
  • we remind them as their emotions are rising- we're here to help if they'd like some solutions
  • they can feel angry/sad/hurt/etc... but there are consequences if they make messes IN/through their emotions 


Goal for our family with teaching them emotional awareness: not an instant fix, at this point in our journey not a lot of behavior modification with it- but we see value in helping them learn this language so they can learn how to softly express their emotions in a way that invites connection.

Their emotions don't control what we do or excuses messes they make. It's helpful for them to be able to identify them feel heard & for us to be "with them" in their pain.
