We Nurture: Waldorf Inspired Parenting

When Your Child’s Behavior Triggers Something Deeper


Listen Later

Welcome back to the We Nurture Podcast!

In this solo episode, I explore what happens when our children’s behavior brings up unresolved feelings from our own childhoods and how those moments can be powerful invitations to parent with more awareness and intention.

If you’ve ever found yourself reacting more strongly than you'd like, or defaulting to control when you feel overwhelmed, you’re not alone. Often, these responses are rooted in our own past—how we were spoken to, disciplined, or supported as children. When we begin to notice the patterns we’ve inherited, we create space for something new to emerge.

In this episode, I guide you through gentle reflections and mindset shifts to help you:

  • Understand why your child’s behavior can feel so triggering
  • Recognize when you're reacting from your past instead of the present moment
  • Break the cycle of control and step into more connected, conscious parenting
  • Make space to reparent yourself with compassion as you show up for your child
  • Create new, nurturing patterns that support both you and your child

This episode will leave you feeling seen, supported, and inspired to bring more presence and self-understanding into your parenting, especially on the hardest days.
