I really enjoyed talking to Louise Clarke of "Your Parenting Partner". Lousie has a child with ADHD, and is also a parenting coach. So, the conversation was an interesting one.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss:
- The power of parent coaching
- Controlling our reactivity through self-care
- Losing touch with our own needs because we're focused on everyone else
- Role modeling self-care
- Scheduling self-care
- Busy weeks make it harder to show up for our kids
- The frustration of parenting ADHD
- The isolation of parenting ADHD
- Louise's Son's ADHD project
- Always be curious
- Look for the unmet need in poor behavior
- An expectation is a prediction of the future
- Expect the process, not the outcome
