Let’s discuss aging parents, toxic parents, narcissistic parents, and setting boundaries.  Somewhere along the line, we start to parent our parents.

Let’s kick off by discussing the crazy amount of options that are drowning us as people and parents. Then, I’ll answer a question being asked by many families: what should I do if my preschooler doesn’t like school? This naturally leads us into intentional living with our kids…what that means and how we can get it.

This dovetails into when little ones need more stimulation because they’re bored and getting into trouble. And then we’ll talk about how fearful parenting can present.

Kids are wild, man. We can’t control their behavior but we can control our reactions. And that’s mostly the crux of parenting. Surfing the wave of difficult times without freaking out.

Today, we’ll start with a few more autumnal things, especially cozy food like braising. We’ll also talk about what little things we can do to plug up our own energy drains. One way to do that is brutal self care. In these early childhood days…you are in the thick of it. Self care isn’t necessarily pretty at this stage but more about making your life evenly paced and easier. Jamie’s Homepage - www.jamieglowacki.com    Oh Crap! Potty Training –...

Today, I’m speaking with Ruth Gordon Martin, a postpartum doula and the founder of Coddle.co (@coddledotco on IG). She is like the warm hug we all need after giving birth!

OMG. I’m geeking out for this interview. I’ve followed Michelle for a long time and just adore her story. In a crazy world, where eating highly processed, hyperpalatable food is considered to be “moderation” and a sign of having no food issues...Michelle healed her own body, mind, spirit, and athletic performance by bucking the dietician standards. Ya’ll know, I love bucking the system. She’s the author of The Dietician’s Dilemma, an awesome book about how our current recommendations are...

Today, I’m thrilled to talking with Erin who is the fantastic force behind the Instagram page @Spinsandstomps. When she realized that her daughter didn’t seem to be hitting some developmental milestones, she became an unrelenting but graceful advocate. I say graceful because I’ve never met another person who is more so. I learned so much from her and how she approaches parenting her autistic daughter is just wonderful to see and hear.
