In this short episode, Beth tells the story of a client who didn’t receive much emotional validation growing up. No childhood is ever perfect, but we all thrive best when we have at least one parent who “sees” us and understands us and responds well to our emotions. The client in the story is on a quest to give her children what she never received. She read a book on “emotion coaching” (A principal developed by Dr. John Gottman) and tells a powerful story about how she apply these principles to one of her own children.
