Being OK with things not being OK – Season 6 bonus episode

Sujai and Vivek host a group coaching call each week in our membership space. This is the talk Vivek gave at this week’s coaching call.

Parenting is super challenging. There are always going to be ups and downs. Our kids will often do things that stress us out, frustrate us and make life difficult for us.

This is when it's important for us to be centered and come from a place of deep understanding. Even when things appear like they're not okay it is a part of the natural process of our kids development.

In this audio I give some ideas around how to relate to those moments when things are not okay.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on what I share.

What strategies do you use to keep calm, centered and focused when things are super challenging and stressful?

How to set limits with your kids... DON'T! - Another controversial podcast with Sujai and Vivek

S06E01 - The idea of "Loving Limits" is quite prevalent in the gentle parenting world these days. This is when we say no to our kids about something and they complain, cry, scream and or beg, and we hold firm to the limit while validating their feelings.

Gentle Parenting is operating from a whole different mindset. It is not traditional parenting done gently. We don't want our kids to feel us as authority figures that have power and control over them. We want them to feel we are walking alongside them as friends and Wise Guides.

In this episode we look at ways to reframe the idea of limits and engage with our kids in a more collaborative spirit.
