Ready to stop the power struggles and start enjoying your kids again? This episode is about the shift that changes everything: moving from control-based parenting to connection-based parenting.
Most of us were raised with "because I said so" and "stop crying or go to your room." We learned that obedience was the goal and connection was conditional. But what if there's a completely different way?
In this episode, you'll discover:
- Why control-based parenting creates compliance but not confidence
- The nervous system cost of traditional discipline methods
- Real stories of parents who made the pivot (including Sarah's sandwich meltdown breakthrough)
- How to hold boundaries with compassion, not control
- The science behind why connection actually works better
- Practical scripts for common challenging moments
- Why this work is actually about healing your own childhood
This isn't about being permissive or raising entitled kids. It's about parenting from your wisdom, not your wounds.
