Find Jay:  On Facebook, in the Gonzo Parenting Group here or email him: [email protected] About Jay:  Jay is the founder of Gonzo Parenting, a comedic and cathartic Facebook community to help parents laugh and heal with like-minded moms and dads. He's a writer, healer, and mentor who thinks that the biggest challenge of child-rearing is doing the personal work necessary to become the parents we want to be. He's a former attorney, restauranteur and business coach. He lives with his wife and six year old boy/girl twins in Sonoma, CA. Show Notes: The most important thing: That our children feel loved and safe. Mindfulness & Meditation help with being our best with our kids. Especially now, it’s important to stay grounded and present for our kids. Stay in the present - the past brings guilt, and the future brings fear. Staying present sometimes means pulling yourself out of the ‘world’ of Social Media, news, and conversations and back into the moment and being with your children.     If this episode resonated with you, you might enjoy our free People Skillz community — a structured space to practice steadier, more intentional communication. We also created a short Communication Patterns Quiz to help you identify how you respond under pressure. You’ll find both here.
