Episode 9 - Parenting Strong-Willed, Not Wild

Parenting today looks a little different than how many of us were raised—and that’s the point. We’re learning to raise tiny humans who are not only strong-willed and capable, but also respectful and emotionally aware. This blog explores the middle ground between gentle parenting and the discipline-heavy styles many of us grew up with. We talk about the hard stuff: how we as parents are still learning to regulate our own emotions, how apologies matter, and why the real magic often happens in calm conversations after the storm. It’s about letting our kids feel their feelings, while guiding them toward empathy and accountability. And yes, it’s also about modelling healthy relationships—working through disagreements with our partners openly and respectfully so our kids see what reconciliation really looks like. Parenting isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence, growth, and connection.   Youtube: https://youtu.be/YGP0kcvHIv4 Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61572831111410    Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/b.t.lpod?igsh=MWw1amxic3NzdGhhOA==  Email: [email protected]  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5gHdMHn8ZKKAm64V09hYWg    The content discussed in this video is for general information purposes only.
