Tara’s Take - Parenting, Education & Life With Kids
Kids & Family:Parenting
Is parenthood overwhelming you, especially in these trying times? What if you could gain insights to better manage emotions, set boundaries, and foster a parenting style that doesn't lead to dissatisfaction, irritation, or self-doubt? This episode delves deep into these issues, emphasizing the importance of creating fresh memories rather than living with the guilt of lost time. We dig into the amplified mental load of parenthood that the pandemic has thrust upon us and the potential repercussions of not dealing with it effectively.
We know that birthdays and celebrations can bring out the big feelings in us all, but there’s a silver lining! We take a closer look at how we can turn these events into opportunities for teaching our children healthy coping strategies. We’ll also explore the art of navigating comparison and individuality, building resilience in our children. Finally, we'll discuss the Language of Kindness towards the planet, framing our conversations around values, inclusion, and the delicate balance between equity and equality. Join us, as we journey through the challenging yet rewarding terrain of parenting as we approach the busy holiday season.
