What if the hardest parts of parenting aren't about your child at all but about your own past asking to be seen?
This conversation with Lael Stone cracked something open for me and I know it will for you too. Lael has spent over 20 years walking with families through birth, early childhood, the teen years and beyond. Her work gently but powerfully invites us to stop asking how to fix our kids and start asking how to meet them with more awareness and less of our own baggage. We talked about the parts of mothering that don’t always feel good, how to spot when you’re reacting from your wounds, and how to raise conscious, connected kids without abandoning yourself.
Lael is a TEDx speaker, parenting educator, and founder of Woodline Primary School. She’s the author of “Raising Resilient and Compassionate Children” and her brand new book “Own Your Story” is now available. It’s a powerful guide to healing the imprints of your past so you can show up with clarity, confidence and compassion for yourself and the people you love.

Key Takeaways
Our Kids Reflect Our Past – Triggers in parenting are often tied to unhealed childhood experiences we haven’t yet explored
Connection Creates Cooperation – Children are more willing to listen when they feel seen safe and emotionally supported
Perfect Parenting Is a Myth – You don’t have to love every phase of motherhood to be deeply connected to your kids
Healing Starts With Awareness – Your reactions are invitations to pause, reflect and shift old imprints into conscious choices
Letting Go Is Built In – Parenting is a long unfolding of trust and surrender as your children grow into themselves
There’s No Fixing Needed - We are all works in progress and the goal is never perfection just deeper honesty and care
