I recently posted this quote on Instagram about discipline and many of you responded with questions on how to effectively discipline so children develop cooperation, problem solving, compassion, respect and other important life skills.
There is not one right way to discipline that works for every child in every situation, but on this episode I share with you tips that will help you pick a response that fits each unique situation.
On this episode Mama Instincts talks about:After listening to this episode you will have tools to discipline your children effectively and from a place of love so that you can raise emotionally intelligent children.

What an intense year this has been!
For most of us, this pandemic has been very scary and rough, and for all of us, life as we know it has changed. So here we are, finding ourselves in a holiday season like no other - without being able to spend it with our friends and extended family and worrying about our children and how this will impact them.
But just because we are going through a pandemic, and just because things are not as they usually are, doesn't mean the holidays are ruined. This holiday is an opportunity, an opportunity to create new family traditions, an opportunity to disconnect, recharge and build strong family connections. It is an opportunity to show our children that even in the midst of chaos, we can find peace, joy and love.
This is the time to have a more intentional holiday season, and how do we do that? That's exactly what this episode is about.

Like most of you, I've had a life of very good moments but also some very hard moments. And over time, through life experiences and lots and lots of reading and studying I've come to integrate 3 core beliefs that have shifted the way I live my life.
These beliefs have helped me become a more patient parent, let go of what I cannot control, and live a more fulfilling life.
These beliefs have impacted my life in such a positive way that today I want to share these beliefs with you because they could impact your life in a positive way too. They could shift the way you see and live your life too and give you space to create a life that makes you feel happier, and that is more fulfilling.
After listening to this episode I hope you look within at your own core beliefs and replace the beliefs that aren't serving you for beliefs that will serve you better. You can change your beliefs to improve your life, to become a more patient parent and to be happier, not some day in the future but now. I hope this episode inspires you to shift your perspective and starting seeing and living your own life in a different kind of way.
