Since parents are pressed on time, I’ll start with saying - Susan’s advice works and it works right away. She has a talent to explain with compassion, sometimes complex, concepts, like IFS. But she also boils all the knowledge down to one simple analogy (captain of the ship) that served me well as a guiding principle through thick and thin of parenting. She also answers questions to the point. I highly recommend the podcast.
Thank you! Deepening our connection and becoming conscious& aware in how we raise our children is the key to our relationships
Such a lovely, interesting and helpful podcast for parents. Thank you.
I am hooked! Practical examples of what REALLY happens in my own home, coupled with EFFECTIVE examples of how to manage my own behavior/reactions so I can parent with empathy and presence. Thank you!!
