  • Ep 73: Police Woman and People-Pleaser vs Empowering Kids with Healthy Boundaries

    Send us Fan Mail

    Are you the one who needs to take care of the whole family, otherwise there would be chaos? If you feel like you always need to be the police woman - checking, reminding, watching time, nagging for things to get done... OR, you're the people-pleasing mom who never says no for the fear of not being loved, always doing way too much for way too little recognition or gratitude...

    Then I'd invite you to stop.
    And listen to this episode because I made it for you.

    There is a way to heal, it's very practical, very effective and it will work for you too.
    You know your kids need not just unconditional love, but also the freedom to make their own choices and experience the consequences of those choices.

    How to do this in a safe way? Listen in...

    Christine is a third trauma-informed coach coming on board because we have more and more women who can do sessions only at night, after they finish working and kids are in bed.

    And because Christine is in Canada, she won't burnout having trauma healing sessions in European late evening/night hours.

    Want to know more about Christine, feel her wonderful energy and hear a bit about her own personal story of turning loads of pain and struggle into an amazing positive impact and healing?

  • Ep 70: Does It Work For Dads Too?

    Send us Fan Mail

    "My husband is yelling at our kids even more than I do. Can you help him too?"

    I'm getting this question more and more often. Because there are moms who are getting amazing results - being able to communicate with their kids in a calm way, and yet, the kids listen better, there's less drama at home, ... and so even the dads become curious: how come it works better than "tough love" and traditional parenting?

    So, if you and your husband are curious if it could work for him too, then this podcast episode is for you.

  • Ep 69: ADHD Symptoms That Come From Childhood Trauma

    Send us Fan Mail

    Was your child diagnosed with ADHD - and then you read the symptomps and realized you might have it too? Is that why it's so difficult for you to be a calm, happy mom who doesn't yell?

    Then listen in because this episode is for you.

    Because what is diagnosed as ADHD (hyperactivity, scattered attention, lack of impulse control) is a result of childhood trauma ("Adversed Childhood Experiences"). So rather than labelling and medicating yourself and your child, you might try a much more effective approach. Because that will not only tune down your ADHD symptoms, but you will also finally create that safe, calm, loving home you wish you had growing up...

    Worth the try?
    So let's dive in!

  • Ep 68: Unconditional Love... Does It Even Exist? And Am I Worth It?

    Send us Fan Mail

    How does it feel to be loved unconditionally - the good and the "bad" in you, no matter if you make a mistake, no matter if you look perfect... Is it even possible to be loved or love someone else unconditionally? Or is it just one of those unicorn theories?
    That's a completely normal and natural question to ask, especially if you didn't always feel loved/appreciated by your parents. If you felt like you had to prove yourself, behave and act in the ways they approved, in order to get their positive attention.
    So now it's really hard for you to feel like a great parent because you're torn between setting rules and boundaries (so that they don't grow up into being spoiled brats), but also loving them even if they make a mistake. Because you want them to feel safe with you, and tell you about their struggles.
    So HOW?
    How can you learn about unconditional love if you never got enough of it?
    Come with me...

    How do you navigate through that?
    How can you make those gentle parenting techniques work for your family so well that even your husband comes on board?

    Let's unpack that together...
