Unscrew You Parenting

Your personality is not who you really are.
What?!?!
I know that doesn't make sense, but if you stick with me on this episode, I'll break down for you why your personality isn who you are, but rather a carefully crafted cocktail between who you are and the roles you had to play to secure attachment form your parents when you were growing up.
In this episode we talk about how to separate our true authentic selves from our personality, why we would want to do that, when it's appropriate to do that and what becomes available to us when we do.
As always - we go deep, so buckle up and get ready for a dive into consciousness!

How is it possible that even if you had a happy childhood, you STILL need to work on past hurts? In this episode we break down a more accurate definition of trauma, one that fits in with the common experience of having a good childhood, growing up to be a good person but still carrying around unresolved anger and hurt.

We also give a more accurate definition of "healing" and what that actually looks like in emotional work.

Lastly we talk about how the work of becoming Consciously Integrated changes every single relationship in the family, which is why this work is transformational.

Sarah MacLaughlin is a social worker turned author & parenting coach and she talks with us today about her book Raising Humans With Heart which is NOT a How-To manual for parenting. Sarah is the kind of friend you wish you had in those moments when all hell breaks loose. She has a wonderful combination of solid common sense, good judgement and compassion all rolled into one. Sarah talked with us about why self development and working through our own hurt is imperative to do for parents in particular. We also talked about having the power to do something vs. having power over someone and why this is an important distinction for us parents to make. Check out this episode, and review us on iTunes!

Ok, maybe not in the actual film, but this analogy is still spot on. Every time we get our buttons pushed by our kids, we are entering our own DeLorean and traveling back in time. In this episode I break down why reacting to your kids’ unwanted behavior is like putting the cart before the horse, it’s the wrong step at the wrong time so it delivers the wrong result.

When I talk about parenting without punishment, it can be a hard thing to wrap your brain around if you have no idea what the steps are to getting there - we break it down in this episode - super simple!!!

This question embodies 2 presuppositions: 1. That your child is somehow missing their potential right now 2. That you have control over it.

In this episode we’re sharing what does maximizing potential really mean, who's potential is not maximized and how do we create the environment that supports it?

This episode is a precursor to an episode we're preparing about meaning and purpose - how do we help our kids live a life of meaning and purpose?

Listen to this episode on potential, and then let's talk about purpose!

Attorney and Conscious Parenting Coach Ellen Gottlieb is our guest this week, and we talk about her extremely thorough and useful book: How To Raise A Parent. Ellen and I discussed issues like setting and enforcing conscious boundaries and emotional tolerance, and how we can use parenting as an opportunity to find our own growth, as much as - and maybe even more than - raising our kids, our job is actually to raise ourselves.
