Ep #46: Conscious Parenting w/ Sean Escobar

Sean and I are realizing our past approach to parenting may be the effect of unconscious thinking. Doing what has always been done without ever really questioning WHY. Not allowing space for new ideas to emerge, new ways of viewing our children and the role we are playing in their lives. Maybe our children are here to teach US instead of the other way around. Their ability to show us things about ourselves should be approached with great respect and reverence. Dr. Shefali Tsabary, author of The Conscious Parent is teaching us how to think outside the box when it comes to parenting. How to stop viewing our children as an extension of us, fueling our ego as we attempt to mold them into the person WE want them to be. Instead recognize them as individual souls who are here to experience life the way THEY want to experience it.
