Parent Differently
Heal Ourselves and Our Kids in a Single Generation
Many parents know that their parenting is influenced–for better or worse–by their own childhood experiences.
Regardless of if you had a difficult childhood or not, you might be wondering…
-
- “How can I avoid passing negative experiences on to my kids?”
- “What is the best way to reconnect and repair with my kids after I’ve lost it?”
- “When I–or my partner–‘lose it’, are we damaging the kids?”
- “How do I parent without falling back into old patterns?”
To answer these questions, we’ve asked leading voices in the parenting field about attachment research, self-awareness, and self-compassion. We’ve delved into topics including imperfect parenting, mindfulness, and generational healing.
You’ll discover why–and how–parents can help their kids feel safe, seen, soothed, and secure.
You’ll hear practices that will help you let go of the shame and guilt, and tune into your inner wisdom so you can show up the way you want for your kids.
These luminaries will share with you how to be compassionate with yourself and your kids and let go of shame, blame, regret, anger, and fear.
You’ll gain simple tools and science-backed techniques for when you–or your kids–lose it.
You’ll get strategies to be your best, even if your kids are at their worst.
Even though you can’t change what happened to you as a child, you can make sense of what happened and understand the impact it might have had on you.
When you understand your past and how you adapted to it, you’ll be free to parent differently, and to become fully present with your child, yourself, and even your partner. In the end, developing self-awareness in our parenting allows us to heal ourselves and our children.
Maybe even… in a single generation.
