Ep #198 Roots of Attachment

Connect Method Parenting I Conscious Parenting,... ·

2025/10/30

Today we are talking about one of my favorite topics ever, the roots of attachment. Nature’s answer to separation is not independence. It is connection. Deep, steady, invisible roots that help our kids and us hold on even when we are apart. In this episode, I talk about the six layers of attachment that Dr. Gordon Neufeld describes, from the first root of the senses all the way down to being fully known and loved for who we are. We talk about: How attachment deepens each year of a child...

Ep #197 The Discipline of Belief

Connect Method Parenting I Conscious Parenting,... ·

2025/10/27

We talk a lot about emotions, regulation, and connection—but underneath all of it is belief. What we believe about ourselves, our kids, and what’s possible determines everything that follows. In this episode, I dive into the discipline of belief—the conscious, daily practice of choosing thoughts that align with who you’re becoming instead of who you’ve been. We’ll talk about why your nervous system clings to old stories, how to rewire it with kindness, and what it really takes to believe some...

Ep #196 In Weakness, There’s Strength

Connect Method Parenting I Conscious Parenting,... ·

2025/10/23

This week we’re talking about weakness. The parts of us we try to hide, fix, or wish away. But what if weakness isn’t bad? What if it’s actually where our strength grows? In this episode, I talk about how being hard on yourself never helps, how to see your weak spots with kindness, and why loving all parts of you makes you a calmer, happier parent. You’ll learn how to: Stop beating yourself up when you mess upSee your weakness as a teacherFeel strong even when you don’t feel perfectThis one i...

Ep #195 Attachment: Our Preeminent Need

Connect Method Parenting I Conscious Parenting,... ·

2025/10/21

If attachment (or togetherness) is the ultimate need, then facing separation is the ultimate threat. Wild, right? In this episode, I’m diving into what that really means, why connection is the invisible gravity holding us (and our kids) together, and how the brain’s built-in systems for pursuit, alarm, and frustration kick in anytime that togetherness feels shaky. We’re talking meltdowns, clinginess, people-pleasing, all of it, through a totally new lens. You’ll start seeing that what looks l...

Connect Method Parenting I Conscious Parenting,... ·

2025/10/16

This is one of my favorite topics to teach: the powerful emotional journey from mad to sad. In this episode, I talk about what Dr. Gordon Neufeld calls the path of adaptation, the incredible shift from frustration and resistance to sadness and surrender. I’ll walk you through the “traffic circle” of big emotions, how our brains look for exits when things don’t go our way, and why the second exit, the one where we change ourselves instead of the situation, is where emotional growth actually ha...

2025/10/14

Parenting isn’t tidy. It’s muddy, unpredictable, and sometimes really uncomfortable. In this episode, I’m talking about what it means to come alongside your child, especially when their choices, emotions, or beliefs stretch you in ways you didn’t expect. We’ll explore how to stay close when everything in you wants to pull away, how to listen with curiosity instead of control, and how to build a relationship that can hold steady through the chaos, confusion, and change that come with raising g...

What if everything you've been doing to become a better parent has been backwards? In this raw, real episode, I share a powerful revelation from my kitchen reorganization weekend (and a real-time call from my sick daughter) that changes everything about how we approach parenting goals. You'll discover why your to-do lists and behavior strategies keep falling short—and the inside-out approach that actually creates lasting change.

2025/10/06

I've shared these ideas across 100+ episodes, but I wanted them all in one place. These are the concepts that make Connect Method Parenting different, the foundation of everything we do inside League and what I teach on this podcast. I'm going through them fairly quickly in this episode, so if you want to go deeper on any of these, search the podcast or come ask me inside League during office hours.

Ep #190 Compassionate Alpha Parenting: Sturdy and Kind

Connect Method Parenting I Conscious Parenting,... ·

2025/10/02

What does it mean to be a compassionate alpha as a parent? It’s not about being harsh or domineering, and it’s not about being passive or permissive either. It’s about finding that steady, sturdy ground between strength and warmth. In this episode, I unpack the term Compassionate Alpha (learned from Dr. Gordon Neufeld) and share why kids need a parent who can lead with both firmness and kindness. You’ll hear why being “too soft” spikes a child’s anxiety, why being “too hard” erodes trust, and...

2025/09/28

Most parenting advice skips straight to tactics: new charts, new scripts, new strategies. And for a while, they might work. But if you’ve ever thought, “Why did I yell again? Why did I get so frustrated even though I promised I wouldn’t?”—you’ve bumped into the truth: behavior is downstream of being. In this episode of the Connect Method Parenting Podcast, I’ll show you why strategies only work as well as the state you bring to them. Change doesn’t last because you tried harder—it lasts becau...

Connect Method Parenting I Conscious Parenting,... ·

2025/09/24

Most of us don’t realize it, but we slip into getting attention from our kids — measuring our worth by their cooperation, moods, or so-called “good behavior.” When they listen, help out, or show up happy, we feel validated. When they resist, melt down, or push back, we question ourselves. In this episode, Andee unpacks the crucial difference between getting attention and giving it — the kind of steady, present, high-quality connection that doesn’t depend on how kids are acting. You’ll hear wh...

Today I'm sharing a live workshops where we dive deep into the very first step of Seen and Heard, the "See" part. And not just seeing the behavior or the chaos or the mess (because let's be honest, our brains love to laser focus on the problem), but actually SEEING our kids. The humans behind the big emotions.

Limits That Feel Like Love — Discipline Without the Drama Discipline doesn’t have to be about power struggles, lectures, or bribes. In fact, when it’s done right, it actually feels like love. In this episode, I’m breaking down why setting firm limits is one of the most loving things we can do for our kids—and how to do it without all the drama.

It's 8:30 AM, a jackhammer is going FULL THROTTLE outside my window for the third hour straight, and I'm over here typing about unconditional love. But that obnoxious jackhammer just gave my entire family the perfect real-time lesson in how our thoughts create our reality. One daughter felt annoyed, my husband felt compassion (because he knows someone who got nerve damage from jackhammer work), and others were pretty neutral about the whole thing. Same situation.

And what if this one shift could stop your parenting triggers in their tracks? Hey parents! I'm giving myself high fives over here because this episode is going to blow your mind about what acceptance actually means in connected parenting.
