Introduction: What the Heck is Parent Coaching?

Are you struggling with parenting, torn between your own childhood experiences and the challenges of raising your kids?   Explore the unexpected challenges and difficulties that define the true essence of being a parent. What does it truly mean to endure the highs and lows of raising children?   Different parenting styles can significantly influence a child's development, and some approaches may negatively affect their well-being. Recall the inconsistent rules and punishments from your own childhood. Reflect on those experiences to better comprehend how they can impact a child's well-being.   This episode emphasizes the importance of recognizing and adjusting your own behavior. Understand that your children mirror your actions, and by prioritizing self-awareness and empathy, you can foster a more positive parenting dynamic.   About The Jai Institute for Parenting:   At The Jai Institute for Parenting, we're deeply committed to reshaping the parenting landscape by educating parents on how to nurture emotionally healthy children, without sacrificing the integrity of limits, boundaries, and values.

Like many of her generation, she had a front-row seat to the kind of parenting that she did not want for her own children. The Jai Institute is the fulfillment of a promise that she made to herself when she was 16 years old that when she had children of her own, she would learn to parent them with compassion, consistency and communication.   On a mission to change the culture around parenting, Kiva wants children to grow up to reach their full potential and live their lives free of trauma, shame, and emotional wounds. As a mother, she has built an extraordinary business that has touched tens of thousands of lives and empowered others who share her mission to do this work.   #parenting #parentcoaching #theparentcoachingshow
