235. Children can't be what they can't see, featuring Lael Stone

Do you ever feel like you manage life well…until the small people in your life don't want to go along with your plans? That’s when the heat turns on, when they find the most inopportune moments to lose it. But the truth is that their cries and outbursts are a way to be seen and heard. Parenting educator Lael Stone nudges us back to our kids’ side, reminding us that our level of compassion and nurturing and how we regulate our emotions in these early years has an impact on who they become. We have the power in how we show up to teach either anxiety and depression, or kindness and compassion.
