In this coaching call with Andrea, we talk about the struggles she has been having with her newly five-year-old son Emmett.

Andrea is the mom of a five-year-old boy and two-year-old girl.

We often talk about parenting strategies to help our sensitive kids, but what about sensitive parents? How do we cope with our strong-willed kids when we have our own full backpacks?

We go into:

[4:00] Examples of the intensity Andrea sees in her son
[11:10] How parenting impacts sensitive parents
[19:50] Part 2: How the suggestions worked for Andrea
[21:20] Why it’s counterintuitive to lean into the upset
