PODCAST

ResponseABLE Parenting

We come to parenting with all the patterns we learned in our own childhood. Together in this podcast, we uncover the roots of our reactivity and grow in education, capacity, awareness, and skills so we will be able to respond vs. react to our strong-willed children. The beauty of this process is as you become a ResponseAble Parent, the "misbehavior" of your children will lessen, the yelling will fall away and a new level of companionship and cooperation will take its place. Welcome to the journey of

27. What Are We Willing To Feel?

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2024/02/05

In this episode I share my feelings around a quote that truly struck me. I cannot for the life of me remember which podcast I was listening to that shared it but I do remember stopping in my tracks, rewinding and typing it down! Here is the quote: Everything we want in our homes and lives is on the other side of the feelings we think we can’t feel. The actual line between where we are and where we want to go is entirely dependent on the feelings we are willing to feel or not in our nervous system.

26. The Meltdown Wont STOP!

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2024/01/29

When you are in the thick of a tantrum it can feel excruciating. And it can feel like it’s never going to end. In this episode I share a story of losing my cool with my 3 year old. And how my response totally shifted his body - and not in a good way. I share openly and vulnerability about this moment in time and all of my takeaways from it. Tantrums and meltdowns are one of the hardest parts of parenting. My hope is that this episode and my community group will help support you and fill the reserves

25. When To Teach A Lesson

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2024/01/22

In this episode I share a story of trying to teach my son a lesson and how poorly it went! And the reason it went so poorly was because my timing was completely off. I was trying to teach the lesson while he was still dysregulated and so he truly wasn’t grasping or hearing a word I was saying. He was internalizing it as shame, being bad and that he wasn’t a good kid. I also talk about generational cycles of punishment and how this challenges the narrative to teach the lesson outside of the moment

24. Parenting The Child In Front of You

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2024/01/15

In this episode I share one of “ah-ha” moments with my son. Once I had this mental reframe I was able to look at him with so much more curiosity and wonder vs. frustration and confusion. It was truly a freeing moment and since then we’ve been able to enjoy these types of projects so much more together. There is less tension, he has so much more freedom to explore and it really has opened up a whole new way that we interact. I’m excited for you to listen and spend some time this week thinking about

23. Parent Teacher Conference Progress!

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2024/01/08

This one is kind of fun! If you follow me on Instagram you know I did a “live” while recording this podcast as well! So the flow is a bit different and a bit longer because I kept talking as people joined. I discuss what happened at our first parent teacher conference when my older son was only 3 and how that shaped our parenting practices. You’ll also hear the stark contrast in teacher feedback from those authoritarian days to now when I am consciously parenting and choosing my responses to him

22. “Egg Time” - Mommy Hormones

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/12/25

I live in a house with all dudes. And it can be very frustrating when my boys don't understand what's going on for me every month. Our moods, capacity, ability, energy, etc are very much dedicated by our hormones. As a result, sometimes I’m a LOT more fun and have a huge burst of energy to do all the creative projects. And others, I have zero battery, I’m easily triggered and have a much shorter fuse. I wanted my kids to understand at a young age what happens for mommy each month, why, and how to be

21. Listener Question - Should I Allow Social Media?

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/12/11

This is such a tricky topic. Most of us were raised in a time without phones in our pockets let alone social media. A lot can come up for us around this topic. We want to make sure we are protecting our children from unwanted bullying, pressures and images. We want to keep their innocence as long as possible. AND we don’t want them to be left out, embarrassed, or made fun of for not having access to the same things their friends do. In this episode, I share a few ideas on how to have this discussion

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/11/27

In this episode, we dive into a listener’s questions about how to get their son to practice. I talk about how we as parents can “future project” when our kids won’t complete the simplest task we are asking them to do and how that projection can distort the way we respond to and treat our children. I share some skills to help gain a better understanding around what is going on for us (childhood beliefs and default patterns) as well as for our children and how to be more compassionate and both feel

19. My Messy Morning

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/11/13

I too struggle with chaos. I am an extremely reactive person and hold onto anger and frustration for a long time. It's something I’ve always done and one of the big reasons I started parent coaching. Without tools, I’m a reactive mess! In this episode, I talk about a recent morning where so many things seemed to go wrong that I was completely drained before the day even began. My morning got messier and messier the more I tried to stay in logic mode. I was stuck in problem-solving mode and in

2023/10/30

In this episode, I get the pleasure of interviewing Feng Shui expert Patricia Lohan. Patricia shares incredible stories of how small shifts in the home transformed her clients’ jobs, relationships, and spilled over into their children’s lives. Trouble with homework? There’s a feng shui answer for that. Siblings fighting, there’s a feng shui answer for that too! Patricia shares so many doable ways to start improving the energy of your home and therefore your family!

17: Default Parents Aren’t Allowed To Be Inconvenient

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/10/16

I’m a little fired up about this topic! Because it’s true! Default parents are NOT allowed to be inconvenient. We are in constant service. We are the ones making sure all wants, needs, ambitions, feelings, etc are being tended to, nurtured and cared for and serviced. And when we are off, the whole family is off. Being all things, for all people, at all times is not sustainable. It’s exhausting and not right. In this episode, I talk about ways to shake it up a bit and become a little less convenient

16: Childhood Beliefs Around "Goodness"

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/10/02

Today we dive deeper into childhood beliefs around being “good” and your “goodness” as a person. I share more stories from my Telluride adventure with my parents and what I’ve been able to uncover since. From this trip, I’ve been able to connect the dots between my performative goodness and my real goodness. I have since realized that as a pastor’s daughter, it was vital to my dad’s appearance and success for his family to be a reflection of his goodness. Growing up in this space, there was a deep

15: How to respectfully teach your children respect

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/09/18

I get a lot of feedback on my Instagram reels about how I am NOT teaching my children to be respectful. While I could debate that, I don’t need to waste my energy because I know that's not true AND I know that I’m teaching my kids “respect” but in a different way. I am teaching my kids kindness, empathy, compassion, how to work in a group setting, generosity, and how to make a kind request vs. a demand. I believe respect can only be learned once it is modeled. And the only way it's truly integrated

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/09/04

In this episode, I dive into cycle breaking around our families. I share why we are triggered the way that we are and what we can do to maintain our clarity and focus on our goals. I share a story about my very real triggering moment when on vacation with my family and how I was able to get sucked down my subconscious rabbit hole of what “should be.” I share a story about how everyday triggers can pop up and how to use those triggers to gift your children a toolbox of skills they will use throughout

13: Gentle Parenting is Not Just For "Gentle Kids"

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/08/21

This is a fun episode! I share my response to the reels going around Instagram and TikTok that have a video of wild children doing crazy things and the voice says “I’m sorry but gentle parenting is for gentle kids…I’ve got gangsters.” For the record, in most if not all of these videos, the children are doing totally developmentally normal exploration. Anyway! The truth is, that gentle parenting isn’t really for the kids at all! It’s a comprehensive set of tools to support PARENTS so we are better

12: Aggressive Kids

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/08/07

In this episode, I discuss our stigma of anger and aggression and how to accept, instead of reject, this totally normal human emotion. It is so easy for us to try to avoid anger, try to correct aggression, and try to move away from this “bad” emotion because it makes us uncomfortable and brings up a good deal of fear and uncertainty. But the irony is that we model anger and aggression and more often than not match our child’s aggression with our own. Our intention is to stop the behavior but

11. How Do We Make a Meaningful Repair?

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/07/24

This is one of my favorite episodes! In this episode I talk about how our deeply rooted, traditional belief systems about children's behavior affects our ability to repair when we blow up at them. When we lose our cool on our children, these belief systems allow us to justify our reactions. I share how we can start to dismantle these beliefs and I offer a step by step formula to follow when we rupture the relationship. I believe that our kids are worthy of repair. And the more we model how to

10. Windows and Mirrors

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/07/10

In this episode, I share a softer way to explore and explain the similarities and differences our children will notice and experience in the world. I also talk about ways to view our children’s behaviors, not as triggering actions that need to be fixed, but rather helpful insights into the areas that still need healing and work within us. When we get too wrapped up in the narrative of “others” we lose the ability to explore and grow and see the human in front of us. I offer insight and advice on how

In this episode, we explore a listener's question about how to manage their 7-year-old son’s disrespectful behavior. We explore themes of defiance and control and I offer suggested scripts and techniques to meet their child’s developmental needs. When we as parents are experiencing a lot of defiance and push back from our children this is a clear sign we are running low on connection. I give several examples of how to get your children in the driver’s seat of choices to give them some control to

ResponseABLE Parenting ·

2023/06/12

In this episode I interview Reece Anderson, founder of We Overcome Anything out of Australia. His 8-week program helps parents get out of their own way in order to support their teens, create more positive connections, lessen conflict, and find more ease in the relationship. Through his own battles of mental health and working in the sector, he realized a large disconnect with teens and parents. The number one thing he’s heard from teenagers throughout his work over the past 5 years is that they are
