Kids Are People Too!

June is PTSD Awareness Month

Did you know that children at any age can be diagnosed with Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)? It is often misdiagnosed as ADHD or Oppositional Defiant Disorder. In this episode we are discussing PTSD in children and how it is often missed and misdiagnosed and how you may be able to recognize it in your children.

Lalaine is a parent coach and has worked with children for many years as an early childhood teacher, program director, school-site director, and volunteered countless hours of working with children. Lalaine has a Bachelor of Arts degree in child development and is credentialed by the state of California in adult education, specializing in parent education and family management. Lalaine specializes in helping parents with children under the age of 12 create a path from sibling rivalry to sibling harmony.

Have you seen Disney and Pixar's new movie, Turning Red? There was SO MUCH to unpack I had to share my thoughts with you! I take a deep dive into the many different themes in this movie including friendship, freedom, allowing your child to be who they were created to be, and so much more! Take a listen and be sure to share (tag me if you share on social media) and leave a review. 

If what comes to mind when you think of mindful parenting is the parent who seems to have no "control" and allows their children to run all over them I'm here to tell you, that's not quite it - that is parenting without boundaries. This episode discusses how to use boundaries to decrease your stress, improve behaviors, and help you get back to the joy of parenting. 

Mindful Parenting is WORK!! One of the most common things I hear when teaching parents about being mindful in their parenting is, "We tried that, it didn't work". The thing is, as frustrating as it may be you have to keep working at it, it won't change over night - tbh, it probably won't change completely in the next 3 months. In this episode I am taking you through why it seems to be taking so long or not working and what you can do to make this a better experience for you and your family.

October is Bullying Prevention Month and we often think of bullying as something that happens on the playground between children. However, sometimes adults are the bullies. In this episode we discuss what an adult bully is, how to identify them, and how this can be changed.

I often talk about Mindful Parenting and Teaching and that meaning that your interactions with your children/students have an impact beyond today. In this episode I will break down the three major ways that your interACTIONS with children impact them and what you can do about it. 

P.s. don't mind the hammering in the background 🙄 We had yet another hail storm in Oklahoma for the second time this year and as I work on becoming more consistent this had to be done AND I lost all audio the first time 🤦🏾‍♀️😭 ...it wasn't getting recorded again 😤
