This podcast is a little late in the day! We were both off with the kiddos this morning in different remote locations. In this episode we discuss how perceptions of neurodiversity can affect how we parent and our children's development and how do we become aware of that, how to do we support ourselves and children in living more authentic lives?

Welcome back friend! This week Kaylin and Amanda build off the conversation from last week and link in how our thoughts about our children and neurodivergence effect how we can show up for them and support them. We also talk about the delicate subject, that not everyone in our children’s care team may be on the same page. And we may need to educate them or have conversations so that our children can be in environments outside the home that are nourishing them and lifting them up to their highest potential.

Hi there everyone! After taking a break last holiday weekend, we discuss how to reframe what are seen as limits into strengths, how this informs our parenting and our view of our children ourselves and each other.

Today we discuss all the social expectations that our kids may or may not be able to meet and explore ways to support them, ourselves and families when our kids meet those expectations in different ways.

What does it mean to set our kids up for success? In this episode we discuss how to notice when we are creating pathways to success or compliance.

Hello friends, and welcome back! This week we talk about how we weather the hard times in life. Be they for a day, a week, or longer. What are your non-negotiables that carry you through the hard times, what are your kids non-negotiables, and how do we fit those non-negotiables into our lives, and modify them as needed from day to day. Let us know what your non-negotiables are in the comments below.

Kaylin and Amanda discuss how our awareness of our internal relationship to ourselves affects how we parent. Through Exploring family generational patterns, cultural norms and expectations, how to we become more aware of why we parent the way we do and heal the parts of ourselves that were not parented the way we needed to be? How does this affect our parenting? Let’s find out together!

We often experience being told our children are too much or not behaving appropriately. What is actually happening? We could talk about these experiences for days. The stories of our children not being what others or the social environment needs them to be is stressful. How do we start to change those stories and advocate for our children?

Welcome back! Today we tackle that dreaded over used word "self care" and talk about how we can rethink caring for ourselves and rewrite the narrative of self care into a cocreation of wellness with our families/children. Also - Even though this podcast was cut short by technical difficulties, we thought there was really great content on here that we still wanted to share. We are in the world managing our own families and lives and sometimes things/technology doesn't always work the way we need it to with the time we have. I am sure we can all relate! lol. As always thank you for listening

This is a huge topic! Join us as we delve into how we have learned to set up our home environments over time for our children’s needs and our own sanity.

Behavior is communication but what does that actually mean to us and others? What does it mean for parenting and for ourselves? In this podcast we talk about how we work with behavior and communication in our personal and professional lives, our own journeys in discovering our needs and how this has affected our parenting
