The Parenting Coach Podcast

S08|18 - Real Talk: A Dad's Journey Through Parenting Challenges


Listen Later

One of my favourite episodes by far, is this honest and tender-hearted conversation that I have with my husband on the podcast. We open up about the tough moments of parenting, managing neurodiverse challenges, and our own personal change and growth over the years. Meet JD Haitsma, my hubby (who is very much NOT a parenting coach). 

In this conversation, we get into: 

  • JD’s perspective on parenting years ago when I first learned about connection and attachment. 
  • The difference between living from the belief “Why wouldn’t this happen to me?” versus “This shouldn’t be happening to me”. 
  • Modifying behaviour (like is so often done with animals) vs helping our children to BECOME.
  • What changes have happened as we’ve parented differently, and what to do if those around you disagree with you.
  • How children are natural learners and are innately good… and why this belief creates changes.

Join the re-parenting movement, at my next retreat, The Inward Journey: www.coachcrystal.ca/the-retreat

Parent School: Discover your own unique path, with confidence… raising emotionally intelligent children who leave your home knowing that you truly, deeply care for them… that you always have, and you always will. Isn’t that what we all want deep down? That is my goal for me and for you… and for the future generation of children, we are raising. To be seen. To be heard. To be valued. To feel loved. To feel supported. To feel known. To welcome them to be themselves- fully and completely. That is The Work. I am here for it. Welcome. 

Join me for the LAST LIVE round of Parent School:

  • shame resiliency: how to feel shame and move through it, what triggers us and why, and how to move through heaviness and use it for growth. 
  • emotional regulation: what co-regulation is and how to support our children from our energy- not our words (not scripts and mantras, this work is much deeper than that), how to support ourselves and our kids through big emotions.
  • the power of our thoughts and beliefs: how to separate who we are from what we think, how to create the exact relationship we want through the power of our mind 
  • connection-based parenting: why it’s the way of the future, how to parent in a relationship-first manner, developing deep and lasting connections that last a lifetime.
  • 6 modules covering all these topics, and more. 2 group coaching calls to get support in your family situations. (add-on available for your partner to join).
