July 19, 2023 My Fave Parenting Tools for BIG FEELINGS
Ah yes, BIG FEELINGS..we know them well as parents, don't we? Did you happen to unwrap the snack that they asked you to unwrap and now they're having a tantrum about it?? Today's episode is here to help us handle those moments. I share a handful of my favourite parenting tools to help us navigate our children's big feelings like a champ. Though it should be stated, these 'tools' might not be exactly what you're thinking about. This is because we know in long-game parenting, the quick fixes are few and far between.

July 12, 2023 Wildcard Mini Episode
Today's mini episode is a little life update from me and quite honestly, a ramble. I talk about my upcoming move, where my head is at with parenting through this transition, and my health/body image lately.
I also note how the podcast might be a little inconsistent and/or messy over the next couple of months while we potentially buy, sell and relocate our family to a new town!

June 28, 2023 My Rock Bottom (and how I view it now)
This episode is me spilling my guts about a very hard time in my life, how it was connected to my childhood and how I view it now. I will be honest and say this episode tripped me up a few times, as it felt weird sharing about it all. I was battling the feelings of "is this a story even worth telling?" Alas, here it is, be gentle with me.

June 07, 2023 "He doesn't know how to chill!": Human Design & Relationships Episode
This episode covers what I think are the two most vital aspects of the human design chart in regards to relationships: energy and feelings. Because sometimes, we just simply don't 'get' each other.
We discuss how sacral and emotional definition greatly affect how we experience the world, and how we can utilize this understanding to better understand our partners (and important people in our life in general)! I also take a couple listener questions and offer some helpful phrases for keeping your relationship in alignment.

TW: Miscarriage minute 24:00-25:15.
Today we chat with my cousin Kristina Founk, a Registered Clinical Hypnotherapist. We delve into what hypnotherapy is, what a client session looks like with her and how it can support you in a variety of areas of your life. We spend quite some time discussing anxiety; Kristina shares her story on how hypnotherapy helped her overcome a level of anxiety that was holding her back from experiencing joy in her daily life. We touch on motherhood, theorize about hypnotizing our kids, and more.

May 24, 2023 My Kids are @#$* Triggering!
This episode discusses the not-so-fun experience of being triggered by our kids; whether they're toddlers or teens, they can (and do) set us off.
I share 4 insights/truths I've noticed about this particular dynamic (because believe me, I'm very experienced with it); ways to support both ourselves and our kids through it with "The 4 S's"; some personal examples and then some listeners' triggering situations. We do of course weave in some human design elements, as mismatches in design can provide some triggering moments; but having awareness of your family's design can be very supportive in working through this!
