Parent Coach Podcast Episode 122 - Your Brain is A Superhighway

A superhighway...to disaster? This week on the Confessions Of A Parent Coach podcast, I'm talking about the idea of rewiring our brains. I's a big part of what’s happening in coaching, but what does it really mean?

Your habits and defaults are well-trodden neurological pathways, which make them superhighways that we use to zip from impetus to reaction at lightning speed. Unfortunately, those reactions are often childish and unproductive. Better responses, on the other hand, require us to carve new paths, and that is a lot slower and requires a lot more intention.

Coaching makes this rerouting easier and faster. Your coach helps you conceive of a new route and understand what different destinations you want to arrive at. They help you stay on track, to come back to this engineering project when you've given up, to point out when you get lost, and help you find your way again.

What kind of rewiring would you love to have for yourself? A different reaction to your kids’ behavior? A more peaceful energy around the chaos of parenting? More even temper instead of getting angry? Whatever it is, I can help and I’m ready to get crackin’ with you!
