We Nurture: Waldorf Inspired Parenting

Finding the Balance Between Letting Go and Holding a Firm Boundary | Unscripted Parent Coaching Session with Chinyelu


Listen Later

Welcome back to the We Nurture Podcast!

In this Unscripted Parent Coaching Session, I talk with a mom of two who’s searching for balance between being firm and staying flexible, between encouraging growth and avoiding pressure.

Here’s what she wants to know: “How can I support my children with boundaries while still honoring their need for play and freedom?” Together, we explore how to simplify the day so there’s room for both connection and calm.

If you’ve been feeling unsure about when to hold firm, when to be more flexible, or how to keep the day flowing without constant resistance, this episode will meet you right where you are.

In this episode, we talk about:

  • Why independent play is so essential for children
  • How reducing transitions throughout the day can ease resistance
  • Ways to help children stay at the table during mealtimes
  • Creating a daily rhythm that supports rest, play, and learning
  • Letting go of the pressure to do it all

This conversation is full of encouragement and practical strategies to help you find your own rhythm so that your days can feel more peaceful and connected.
