Episode 41 - Conversations with Joss and Danni Part 1 - A Bit About Ourselves

This episode is part 1 of an exciting new series of conversations that I will be sharing with my wonderful friend and colleague Danni Willow. We co-run the Exploring Aware Parenting Community and work closely together in many spaces about Aware Parenting and felt called to share some of our many beautiful conversations about this paradigm, that we are both so passionate about. Danni is an Aware Parenting Instructor and mother to 2 gorgeous girls aged 6 and 4. She has been on the podcast before sharing her wisdom in episodes 5, 14 and 31. In this episode we talk about our backgrounds and lives before Aware Parenting and how these experiences have informed our understanding and practice of this approach. We describe the contrast between our early years and the early years of our children and some of the ways that we see the powerful impact on them of Aware Parenting them and re-parenting ourselves. We share honestly about some of the struggles from our past and how that shaped us in ways that were really challenging, both at the time and to unpack and heal from as adults. We talk about how grateful we are to Aletha Solter and to Marion Rose for this work and the impact it has on our children, on us and on the wider culture.
