Retrain Your Brain, Rewire Your Family

When people join the Mastermind Parenting community, they come seeking answers about the way their children behave. What they usually don’t realize is that they’re not just struggling with “bad” behaviors. They need a space where they can unlearn generations of bad advice, and retrain their thinking around the rewards and challenges of parenting sensitive kids. This week we’re talking about a mom who is just starting that process. I’ll share the experiences that are resonating with her, and how her family dynamic is being rewritten through the honesty and empathy she’s receiving in community with other moms.In this episode, you’ll learn:What the label “strong-willed” means for a kiddo, for what they need in a parent, and how it will serve them as they grow into the world.That we have to start with ourselves as we cultivate empathy and patience.How easy it is to get stuck in outdated, counterproductive thinking about what it means to parent a sensitive child.The huge impact on a family when mom gives herself permission to feel overwhelmed.And much more! As always, thanks for listening.
