105 - I Hope Your Kids Trigger You. I Said It, and I Mean It – Here’s Why

Our kids all do certain things that can be triggering for us.    In frustration, we can wonder what we’re doing wrong when our kids have moments of disobedience, defiance, and disrespect.   In today’s episode, I’m here to offer you another perspective.  While it’s certainly not the easy route, our kid’s most difficult behaviors may actually be a good thing.   I explain 1) why our kids’ pushing back is beneficial for their emotional growth and development and 2) when we do the inner work to start healing our triggers, we can hold beautiful space for our children as they practice new skills (like respectfully disagreeing) in a safe environment.    TAKE THE PERSONALITY PATTERN QUIZ - Personality Quiz FREE 5-STEP MORNING ROUTINE FOR MOMS FB COMMUNITY: The Calm Mom Collective JOIN ME ON INSTAGRAM: @michellegrosser.coach BOOK A 1:1 UNSTUCK SESSION WITH MICHELLE   “I love The Calm Mom Podcast!” ← if that sounds like you, please consider rating and reviewing our show!  This helps us support more women, just like you, on their motherhood journey.  Click here, scroll to the bottom, tap to rate with five stars, and select “Write a Review.”  Then be sure to let me know what you loved most about the episode!--🧠 What's your capacity pattern? Take the free 2-minute quiz and unlock The Capacity Code — a personalized private podcast episode for your specific nervous system. → Take the Capacity Pattern Quiz
