Often, starting from birth, we have to pivot as parents. Pivot away from our vision, our ideals, our own values. This can be because of circumstances beyond our control, life changes, or simply the child in front of us. Because that child may be struggling or actually may be thriving in a way different than what we visioned or had hoped. This episode is dedicated to all those pivots, hard and easy…acknowledging them and honoring them.  Jamie’s Homepage - www.jamieglowacki.com    Oh Crap!

Co-regulation is a current parenting buzz word. And yes, it’s amazing and we all should do it when our children are having big feelings. But I work in the real world and there are many times we can’t co-regulate because we ourselves are dysregulated. Let’s dive into what to do next. Also in this episode: let’s discuss slightly older kids and the “gardening” phase of parenting. Jamie’s Homepage - www.jamieglowacki.com    Oh Crap!

I am highly recommending two books: Hunt Gather Parent and Radical Confidence Both these books contain valuable parenting lessons. Largely, expect kids to misbehave…it is going to happen so how do you be angry without losing your shit. But also distress tolerance and emotional sobriety. As parents, we can’t afford to get on the same emotional roller coaster as our little ones. Jamie’s Homepage - www.jamieglowacki.com    Oh Crap!
