Parenting In The Thick Of It with Louise Clarke

I think that every parent needs to wake up each morning and read this letter. We need to remind ourselves of this on a daily basis to help us show up more open, curious, compassionate, empathetic to our tweens and teens… and toddlers actually! It applies to every parent of every aged child. What do you think? Take a listen and let me know.

Inspired by a Facebook post written by Helene Wingens

Wouldn’t it be nice if our apple watches gave us an “overwhelm” pressure reading so that we could be proactive in avoiding losing our shit and turning into raging beasts!!! Oh, the chance would be a fine thing! Well actually, maybe there is something you can do. Tune in and find out what you can do so that you don’t lose your cool.

If you are struggling with things and are in need of some parenting support, I’m here! I have two group coaching programs that I run, a 6-week one (once a week) that starts whenever you are ready to start and an 8-week one (twice a week) that only runs three times a year.

I have talked about this many times on the show, but it is so important that I just felt that I had to discuss it again. If your child is not doing what you think they “should” be doing, in terms of taking age and stage-appropriate responsibility, then tune in… The bottom line is this: we just cannot afford to continue doing things for them and controlling things they need to control for themselves if we hope for them to become autonomous and independent young adults. In fact, it works against them ever being autonomous.

Those of you who know me know that I’m all about feelings, and feeling our feelings. And allowing our kids to feel theirs. When we fail to do this, it causes us to reACT in the heat of the moment in ways that do not serve us, nor our kids. Being able to use our feelings as foresight is a fundamental part of being able to switch from judgmental reactivity to compassionate responsiveness. Curious as to how you can do this? Tune in…

I believe that many people now realize and believe that happiness is, in fact, an inside job and understand this at an intellectual level. But how many of us truly get it at a practical level? Over the years, it becomes increasingly evident to me that many parents are not living their lives in alignment with what they truly value and as such, do not believe they are “good enough” and subsequently look to the “other” for approval, validation, acceptance, appreciation and a whole load more things. So… what can we do? If you are curious, then to tune in as this really gets to the nitty gritty of why we behave the way we do, especially in the face of unacceptable behavior from our kiddos…

If you really want to dive into this and change things at a root level, then join me for my next 8-week group coaching programs, you can find more details for them here:

How much attention have you ever given to YOUR patterns around making requests of your kids? And… how do you typically ask them to do something? And … what is their typical response? Knowing the answers to this, and asking for “help”, will be the key to changing everything. When you change your part to play in it all, your kids will change theirs, but it has to start with you.

Many babes need a pacifier to soothe and comfort them, and without even really noticing, smartphones may just have become the same thing for tweens and teens. The similarities are indeed quite shocking but the ramifications of smartphones becoming binkies are far more potentially damaging. Tune in…

When our kids do something that “breaks” our trust in them, it’s hard for us. However, we have to appreciate that it is also hard for them, and this piece is something we don’t often think about, and I believe we should. It is not nice to know you are not trusted and just because your child makes a poor decision in one area of their life, does it mean they can’t be trusted period, or just for this one thing? If you struggle with this, please do tune in…
