Natural Born Parents? With Janine Coombes

Janine is mum of 2 children, who are now 10 and 12.  She runs her own business helping coaches and consultants with their marketing and sales. We spoke to Janine about: Whether there is such a thing as a natural born parent and Janine’s feelings on this. The stress of getting children out of the house - mum guilt and shouting at children! How taking an online parenting course when the children were around 2 and 4 changed things for Janine. ‘Feeling maternal’ - the expectation that everything should come naturally to parents and how we haven’t replaced the ‘village’ that helped us to raise our children. Having a growth mindset and how this helped Janine to develop in her parenting. How Janine felt that she lost her identity and that her world had shrunk when she had her children. How having her own business helped her to get her identity back.  Three things Janine would say to herself as a new mum.   Instagram - @bespokefamily / Facebook - @bespokefamily  For information about a Bespoke Family Parent Consultation click here: https://www.bespokefamily.co.uk/parent-consultations    ‘Your Guide to...’ (our downloadable webinars including behaviour, toilet training, sleep and more)  This podcast is produced by Decibelle Creative
