Guest: Lorena Seidel
Lorena T. Seidel is a parent educator, Montessori teacher, and mother of three who’s been in the trenches—and she’s here to help us climb out with more confidence and less guilt. In this episode, we unpack Lorena’s powerful approach to raising emotionally healthy, well-adjusted kids using mindset-based strategies that actually work in everyday chaos.
We dive into the real stuff: hitting, meltdowns, power struggles, and those moments when you’re two seconds from yelling in the kitchen. Lorena shares how behavior is communication, how our mindset as parents is often the key to breaking cycles, and how to handle things like screen time, sibling fights, and even the in-laws who ignore your parenting boundaries.
We talk about what it means to be kind and firm, not just in theory, but with examples you can use today. Lorena helps us understand why growth mindset matters, how to coach our kids through hard moments, and how we can stop trying to control behavior and start guiding it.
Don’t forget, you are doing amazing <3
