En este episodio Yesenia introduce las ideas de la paternidad condicional e incondicional.  Alguna vez te has preguntado, ¿estaré comunicando amor condicional o amor incondicional a través de la manera que estoy disciplinando a mi(s) hija/o(s)?  ¿Importa?  Yesenia nos invita a considerar la importancia de emprender el camino hacia la comunicación del amor incondicional.  Prepárate para ver la paternidad a través de otros ojos mientras Yesenia hace una deconstrucción de la paternidad un poco más en este tercer episodio de la #seriesomospadres.

Last weeks courageous testimony by Dr. Ford has inspired Yesenia to make a contribution that is deserving of the moment and that she has been waiting to make.  Have you ever wondered if the way we parent can play a part in whether or not your child(ren) would disclose their abuse to you?  Yesenia is here to offer her perspective on this question based on her own experience as someone who has experienced sexual abuse as a child and wondered why she never told anyone until she became an adult.  Her answer may help you see parenting from yet another perspective.

****Content Warning:  This episode will discuss sexual abuse..****

We have been asked a couple times how Paulo became such a reflective and communicative partner.  Well, in today’s episode Paulo and Yesenia try to figure this out.  The reflective person that he is today is very different from the Paulo that Yesenia married.  Paulo shares the belief systems that shaped his attitudes at the beginning of their life together like his stubborn need to be right, to be in control, and maintain the power in their household.  Yesenia reflects on how these moments took a toll on her that they are still unpacking and healing together today.  Paulo answers the questions:  What would you say to your younger self?  What would you say to any husband/partner that doesn’t want to change?  What would you say to a wife/partner that wants her husband/partner to change?  His answers may surprise you.

Summer break is now over and the hosts, Paulo and Yesenia, are now both on the show to talk about the summer.  They do not hold back and kick it off with a disagreement that they had while recording the podcast episode that ultimately led them to re-record the episode and hash it out.  Once that was resolved, Paulo interviews Yesenia about the Somos Padres Summer Series and about her recent 10-day Vipassana silent meditation retreat experience in Joshua Tree California.  You do not want to miss this episode.

Welcome to our 6th and final episode of our Somos Padres Summer Series.  In this episode Yesenia takes on the concept of what parenting is all about, parenting is not about our kids.  The acceptance and the self-realization of this concept was the catalyst which took our parenting to another level.  Walking the line on this concept has been very challenging but the personal goals achieved thus far have been so worth it.  Listen in as Yesenia reflects on this concept brought to us by Dr. Shefali Tsabary.
