Okay, story time. Day TWO in our brand-new Arizona house. 100+ degree heat outside. Moving boxes EVERYWHERE. And my boys? They decided this was the PERFECT moment for an indoor blanket ride across our hardwood floors. You know exactly where this is going, right? 🤦‍♀️ One overzealous turn later, and BAM—child-sized HOLE straight through our kitchen wall. Before we'd even figured out the Wi-Fi password, y'all! And in that split second, I felt all the mom-frustration bubbling up. The "I guess

I’m talking all about your parenting self-concept—what it is, why it matters, and how shaping your identity is way more powerful than any technique, script, or strategy.

Hey hey, beautiful people! ✨ Oh. My. Goodness.

For decades, discipline was shaped by behavioral science—rewards, punishments, and timeouts were seen as essential parenting tools. But the research has moved on. Have we? In this episode, we trace the evolution of parenting science—from Skinner and Watson to Porges and Siegel—and explore why many of the most common strategies today (like timeouts) may be as outdated as smoking on an airplane.

Today, we're diving into something that's been buzzing in my mind lately—what I call The Acceptance Shift Model. This isn’t just a concept I teach; it’s something I’ve lived through in my own parenting journey. And let me tell you—it changes everything. Here’s the truth bomb: When we argue against reality, we lose 100% of the time. Acceptance gets a bad rap. A lot of us think it means giving up, being passive, or saying, “Sure, just keep tantruming forever.” But nope. That’s not it at all. T...
