Authentic Parenting

Today's episode contains adult themes and sensitive topics. Listener discretion is advised. Some early childhood experiences shape adult life, but which ones and how? Our earliest experiences may stick with us for years and continue to influence us well into adulthood, our mental and emotional well-being, relationships and even physical health. Karen Lock Kolp shares how being sexually assaulted as a 7-year-old has affected her whole life.

***The Authentic Parenting Conference is happening on Saturday, May 18 in New Brunswick, NJ. *** GET YOUR TICKET NOW>>>https://authenticparentingconference.eventbrite.com Today's episode is an on air coaching call. I help Bethan, a mom of 3 kids from England, ages 6, 3 and 9 months to get some tips on helping her eldest son with physicality. It sounds like this little boy has a difficulty controlling his body, is physical, hits and kicks when he gets angry, squeezes the baby's head hardly, doesn't recognize boundaries, doesn't know how to stop, even when his brother tells him that he no longer enjoys the rough play. He also exhibits some sensory issues. If you'd like to be featured on an on air coaching episode, I'd be thrilled to do a coaching session with you. It's free.

She wants to be able to communicate more consciously and elicit willing cooperation. As well as, set boundaries without dishing out empty threats and punishments. We also discuss the importance of making agreements with our kids, specifically screen time contracts, involving them in the process as much as possible, working with our kids, being on their side as oppose to being against them.

ATTENTION! Sign up for my upcoming FREE webinar. Sep. 6, at 12:00pm EST. 5 Essential Shifts You Can Make To Feel Less Overwhelmed, Energized and Positive www.authenticparenting.com/webinar Kerri Hummingbird went through a lot. From an early age well into her adult years she battled with self loathing, self-harming behaviors, dating bad boys, being and acting bad, divorce, affairs, drinking, traditional therapy...But it didn't help. She took blame for everything. She felt as she was broken and needed fixing. She was disconnected from her authentic self. The truth of who we are is so essential that its absence takes a heavy toll, typically causing us to lose our sense of self, personal goals, and close relationships. In order to become wholeheartedly ourselves, we must try, through an often lengthy process, to discover our own personal truth — a truth that may create discomfort before giving us a new sense of freedom.
