ResponseABLE Parenting

Unconsciously we are setting ourselves up for failure over and over again with our kids. We head into each and every interaction with stored emotions in our bodies telling us whether or not we should be guarded or open.

In this episode I share the foundational step to shift this pattern in our bodies. How you can instantly increase your tolerance level and support yourself to a better outcome.

APPLICATION FOR THE PARENTING BREAKTHROUGH CIRCLE This small group coaching opportunity will help you break through your negative patterns, beliefs and toxic cycles with yourself and your child. The work you put in here, will transform your relationship with your children forever.

Here is a small portion of what you can expect:

• Focused integration that finally rewires your unwanted habits so that your default response is measured, confident and connected.

• An opportunity for you to truly master skills, gain unwavering clarity in emotional regulation and supportive strategies so you can remain calm and finally release the triggers.

• A deep education on your and your child's nervous system and processing so you can finally break the cycle of struggle and step into confident, connected leadership, so boundaries are simple and enforcement is no longer a challenge.

• A place where you can fully ditch the frustrations, power struggles, low self worth beliefs, deep conditioning and shift your parenting at it's core, for good!

In this episode I address whether or not I believe empathy is a sign of weakness. Or "weak parenting." Elon Musk has been in the news saying "the fundamental weakness of western civilization is Empathy." However I think it's one of the biggest strengths for humanity.

When we can SEE each other, when we can seek to understand each other we are in fact stronger. Both personally and as a nation.

I invite you to listen and think about how you were shown empathy as a child and how that's impacted your ability to show empathy as a parent. And if you're ready to start shifting towards empathy.

In this episode I share the 5 reasons I see that gentle parenting isn't working for you. These are what I'm seeing across comments, questions I get asked weekly, my client's perspectives and community members.

And I want to acknowledge that it's hard to transition from one parenting style to another. Especially one that forces us to look at our own stuff vs. focus on our children's behavior.

I hope this brings some insights and of course please connect with me if you are called to work together.

I would really love to connect with you and see how coaching or my programs could be a support for this recurring pattern. Please reach out and we can connect on a free call. [email protected]

This episode is a wonderful conversation discussing how we as parents can shift our focus, our reactivity and the lens in which we view our children with brain-based differences. You get to hear from expert Eileen Devine on how she approaches parenting frustrating behaviors from a skill deficiency lens vs an intentional defiant lens.

I hope you enjoy this conversation and feel hopeful in how we can start to shift as parents with our children whose brains function differently.

Bio:

Eileen Devine is a licensed clinical social worker and founder of Brain First Parenting. She lives in Portland, Oregon with her husband and two teenage children, one of whom lives with a serious brain-based difference. She has over 20 years of clinical experience and for the last dozen of those years, has focused solely on supporting parents who have kids with neurobehavioral conditions. In addition to her clinical work with parents, she facilitates dozens of workshops and trainings each year for parents, teachers, and mental health professionals and is a trainer for the Center for Adoption Support and Education's (C.A.S.E.) accredited Training for Adoption Competency (TAC) Program, where she instructs other clinicians across the state of Oregon on what it means to be an adoption and foster competent therapist. https://www.eileendevine.com/

This episode answers a question I got over on Instagram. If you don't follow me there please connect at @ ResponseABLEparenting

This parent was really struggling with their toddler falling on the ground and using their weight against them in the middle of a tantrum. We've all been there, when we say no to something and our toddler all the sudden goes completely dead weight and falls to the ground in a full meltdown.

This can be very triggering, embarassing and frustrating. I share how we can soften in these moments by understanding our children's developmental abilities and the steps I would take to move through this moment and maintain connection as well as teach them the behavior I would like to see going forward.

I hope this episode is supportive and gives you some insights into managing these really annoying tantrums we experience throughout our kid's development.

This is a very special episode! I am taking part in the Podcasthon Non-Profit Initiative where over 1500 podcasters are bringing awareness to a charity and organization that means something to them.

I am honoring the Madd Ox Foundation. It's a foundation to bring awareness to stillbirths as well as provide resources to families (especially mothers) who have recently experienced a stillbirth.

https://www.maddox-foundation.org/

In this episode I share my story of losing my son Jackson in 2019. I share about how I moved through grief, what I've learned from this experience and the many ways I began to understand what happened and how to live with grief as opposed to fighting it at all costs.

No matter if you've lost a child or a loved one or something very special to you, grief can impact our parenting in very negative ways. I share more on that and how to begin the process of recognizing and moving through that to support both you and your children.

Ever been there when things are going pretty smoothly and then one thing derails you and all the sudden you find yourself reacting as if all hell broke loose? Do you beat yourself up over your reaction? Spend the rest of the day ruminating on how you failed and why you can't seem to just stay calm?

I've been there. I really have. So so many times. In this episode I share some tools to really support you when things don't go according to plan. And I give you the next action step that you need to take to nip this reaction in the bud for good.

I would really love to connect with you and see how coaching or my programs could be a support for this recurring pattern. Please reach out and we can connect on a free call. [email protected]

It's easy to think that everyone else has it figured out as a parent. That you are the only one failing and have totally messed up your kid. That every time you yell or threaten you have to go back to the drawing board and start completely over.

In this episode I share a rough moment with my son. I share how I fell back into old patterns and how I totally forgot to use every skill at my fingertips.

But then I share how this work took this moment from what would have been hours down to under ½ an hour from start to finish. And how we ended up learning so much from this fight that we now know exactly what we both need to work on.

I share exactly what I did to turn the sinking ship around and the outcome of that. How this work has truly changed the trajectory of our relationship.\

In this week's episode I share a subtle thing I've noticed across all the parents I work with. A little hiccup that keeps us stuck, that keeps us in a frustrated power loop and draws us back into conflict with our kids.

It's this longing and almost expectation that our kids are going to validate our hard work as parents. We've done so much work, we're putting in a tremendous amount of effort and we still get yelled at, we still get pushback, we still get their aggression. It can feel so defeating and frustrating. It can make us question whether what we are doing as parents is the right thing for our kids.

And it makes it 10x easier to revert back to the old patterns that we grew up with: yelling, shaming, threatening etc.

I'm excited for you to listen and please reach out if you had an "ah ha" in this episode!

VIRTUAL MEETUP! Is there a challenge in your family that has NOT gotten any better? Are you stuck in constant power struggles, experiencing defiant behavior every day, just feeling so defeated that nothing has worked and you fear you're losing the connection to your kids every day? Then this is for you. Join my monthly virtual meetup where you can share what's happening and get real, actionable and personalized solutions. This is the most affordable way to get 1:1 coaching so the plaguing problems go away and you can finally enjoy parenting again! Meetings are held the last Tuesday of every month (subject to holiday adjustments).
