The Parenting Coach Podcast

Amy has a passion for supporting those on the front lines with teens. During her time as a middle school teacher, Amy was featured in The Washington Post and Kiplinger’s Personal Finance Magazine and served as a teacher-leader for Congresslink.org. She provides fresh ideas, strategies and resources for middle school parents and teachers.

Amy currently lives in the Dallas area with her husband, two teens, and two dogs. When she’s not working on her podcast, you can find her listening to U2, watching Gilmore Girls for the millionth time, or hanging out on the patio with her guy. Unless she’s hiding so she can finish that young adult novel she’s reading. Then, you’ll never find her.

What we talk about today:

• Generous listening and how it differs from active listening
• Creating open communication with our teens
• How to use the power of story to increase communication
• Separating what is going on with us and what is going on with our teens and tweens to up our communication skills

Catie is a mom of 4 kids in 5 years. After her 3rd baby she really struggled with her weight. She got to a point where she really didn’t recognize herself anymore. She didn’t know who she was or what she was doing. She felt like she had lost her purpose. Now after having her 4th baby, and especially since she has two daughters, she wants to change the narrative when it comes to moms and how we view and talk to ourselves. It’s so easy to lose ourselves in the motherhood role. We had an identity before being a mom and she help moms rediscover who they are and helps them feel confident in themselves inside and out. 

In our conversation, you’ll hear:

• Catie’s journey and struggles with body positivity
• The importance of modelling healthy body image to our daughters
• How to love ourselves, no matter what
• The power of speaking truth to your body + standing naked in front of a mirror
