How did a single mom with a high-needs, high-sensitive child manage to stop yelling?
She read all the parenting books, even started studying childhood psychology at the university, coaching parents on how to stay calm... and yet, she was exploding and raging.

How did she manage to heal and become a calm, loving mom, despite the gender identity shift of her child, and burnout from all the work, study, and financial pressure, ...?

Just watch and allow yourself to be inspired.
What if you could heal too, and become able to deal with whatever life throws at you with clarity, peace, and unconditional love for yourself and your children?

That's what Bine's story is about.
She's a living, shining example that anything is possible once you get the right help.

If you're struggling in your partnership/marriage because it feels like you're giving too much and there's not enough coming back, so you stopped giving and it backfired... and you keep fighting with your partner more than before, then this podcast episode is for you.

The exercises/journal prompts we will go through will help you get clear on the following:
- what you've been really missing
- how to ask for it in a way that will make you feel heard
- and what you need to do BEFORE you ask (if you don't want it to turn into another fight as it did in the past).

Do you still love your partner/spouse? Do you want to stay together (not just because of the kids)?
Then I'd strongly recommend you listen in and do all the exercises as openly and honestly as possible.

Sending you lots of compassion!

We are going to blur the video to protect the privacy of her family, but if you could see this mom's shining face... :)

This is what becomes possible once you stop waiting for your kids to change, and start doing the work on your anger, stress, and reactions.

As a result, you will not only be able to set healthy boundaries, while making your kids feel worthy of being loved, but just like this mom, you will build your resilience and stress resistance in general.
No matter the noise triggers, no matter other people's expectations.

And just like this mom, who was suddenly made redundant a few weeks ago, you won't let that throw you off track.

So let her story inspire you about what (and how fast) is possible.

If you heard from school or others that your kid is a total angel, calm, respectful, obedient child and a pleasure to be around..., while you know that when they come home, they turn into the complete opposite, and you struggle with staying calm because it's just too much for you, then this podcast episode is for you.

How do you handle the evening meltdowns without yelling, but also without just letting them do whatever and making you go crazy?
Why the usual parenting techniques did not help you with that?
And what do you need to focus on instead?

If you want to raise respectful, kind, happy human beings who will feel loved unconditionally, and who will respect your boundaries, let's dive in...

I'm literally in awe and speechless.

I knew how powerful the process I developed was for women.
But only as I spoke to Sonny, one of the men who is just completing the Zen Superdad program, I fully realize what a life-changing and deeply meaningful impact this work can have for men too.

Don't take my word for it, just watch for yourself so that it doesn't sound like I'm 'tooting my own horn'...

I think there's only a handful of men I've met in my entire life who were so aware, so deeply connected, and so strong that they would be able to do what Sonny just did - to be able to have an open talk about their life, the mistakes they've done, the struggle and pain they have felt, and how courageously and relentlessly they turned it around.

So if you're sitting there, feeling deeply unheard, misunderstood, alone feeling cut off from your life, and in your relationships, then this talk was meant for you.

Vacations and holidays will be over soon, the weather will start changing, sunlight will get shorter and less intense and if your kids are big enough, they will be going back to school...

If you hate this transition into autumn and usually get overwhelmed, anxious, and depressed by it, then this podcast episode is for you.

"And what about men/dads? How are they supposed to be calm and empathetic when their kids trigger them, if they don't want to repeat the classic yelling/punishing/too strict approach they grew up with?"

This is why I invited Victor, our first Zen Superdad trauma coach to join me for this podcast episode.
And this is what we covered:

- How is men's work to build up healthy emotional control different from women's work and healing
- What specifically are some of the methods we are using to stop repeating the parenting mistakes of our parents
- Why it's better to do this healing work in a small group, rather than solo

If you're intrigued to find out more and continue exploring and healing with us, then email [email protected] to get notified when the next "Daddy Tantrum" Training is scheduled. So that we can meet you live.

These three most common and most painful mistakes I see loving but yelling moms make, are actually the biggest mistakes I used to make myself.

And I believe that's why it took me so long to figure out:

what boundaries actually were
how not to get triggered when I was stressed, exhausted, or overwhelmed,
or how to help a child who's having big emotions, while I couldn't handle mine...


So if any of these struggles sound familiar, then let me help you avoid making those painful mistakes and save your time, money, and energy.

Listen in and let me know what you got out of it.

HOW can you make your kids listen without yelling?

Step 1: Learn the basics in the free Mommy Tantrum Training
Register here: https://www.zensupermom.com/workshop

Step 2: Listen to this podcast episode where I explain to you...
(spoiler alert)
... why there is not one single answer to this question

And this is why none of the parenting techniques ever worked for you. Because what worked yesterday with one kid, might not work tomorrow, or for the other kid... Why not?
And how to make the kids listen without yelling?

Join me in this podcast episode - after you watched the mommy tantrum training.

I'm worried I traumatized my kids by yelling at them, stressing, not having time to listen or play with them... Did I damage them forever, just like my strict/yelling/stressing parents impacted my life? Or can I help them somehow?

I get this question a lot on the free Mommy Tantrum Training, and in the 1-1 assessment calls I'm doing with women interested in starting this work. Often more than for themselves, they want to heal their anger (and people-pleasing) because of their children.

So what is really possible?
How can the healed you feel like, and what impact is that going to have on your kids?

And can you even help your shy introverted son, or a manipulative, controlling, aggressive daughter change, and become a healthy, happy kid?

Or is this part of their genetics and identity, and this is who they will be for the rest of their lives?

Listen in, this podcast episode is for you.
