Authentic Parenting

In today's episode I'm helping Adriana, a mom of 2 kids, ages 2 and 4 years old with limit setting. I demystify the limit setting process and ask Adriana to get clear on her why behind saying "no". Setting limits doesn’t have to be unpleasant. You don’t have to be harsh or angry.  It’s all about knowing your why, staying calm and present, communicating the limit with compassion and holding that limit knowing that kids will have emotional reactions. You don’t have to feel guilty or even give in. In fact I suggest using playfulness and humor as strategy.

Dr. Elizabeth Cohen talks about divorce.  There is still a stigma around divorce. You may be viewed as a failure. You may view yourself as a failure. And divorce can be traumatic. Depending who initiated the process, it can come as a shock to the other party. It’s always emotional. And both men and women feel a sense of loss.  While no two divorces are alike, there are still some common reasons for it.  Can you see it as an opportunity to grow rather than an ending of something?    BECOME A SUPPORTER OF THE SHOW 1.
