Episode 50: Parenting with Calm and Connection: Real Solutions for the Hard Days with Todd Sarner of Transformative Parenting

Parenting isn’t hard because you’re doing it wrong- it’s hard because it’s deeply emotional work. In this episode, Denise sits down with Todd Sarner, founder of Transformative Parenting, to talk about what really makes parenting feel so challenging- even for smart, intentional, loving moms.  Together, they unpack why behavior problems are often communication problems, how to stay calm when emotions run high, and where to start when you’re craving more peace and connection at home. Todd also shares practical ways to get your partner on board, build emotional resilience in your kids, and navigate modern parenting challenges like screens and stress without losing yourself in the process.  If you’ve ever felt like parenting shouldn’t be this hard, this conversation will remind you—you’re not alone, and there’s a calmer, more connected way forward.  Connect with Todd Sarner  Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tparenting/   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tparenting   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/toddsarner/   Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/@TransformativeParenting   Website: https://transformativeparenting.com/about   Free Transformative Parenting Masterclass https://masterclassforparents.com/?sl=tpwebsitemasterclass   Todd’s Book  https://transformativeparenting.com/the-calm-connected-parent  Connect with Denise of Working Moms Redefined:  Catch full episodes and subscribe to The Working Moms Redefined Podcast on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@WorkingMomsRedefined   Click here for the 9 Minutes a Day for a Lifetime of Connection Masterclass!    Listen to The Working Moms Redefined Podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio and Amazon Music.
