Most of us carry a quiet belief that we have to be everything for our kids. If the other parent isn't showing up the way we wish they would, we tell ourselves it's on us to fill every gap. To be the nurturer and the rough-and-tumble one. To make up f... more
We've all been told the same thing. Kids need consistency above everything else. The same rules, the same bedtime, the same consequences in every home they live in. So when the other parent won't get on the same page, we panic. We send the articles. ... more
For years, I thought I was doing everything right. I had left the yelling behind. I praised my girls constantly; I made star charts. I was a trained teacher and a school counselor, and I believed with my whole heart that catching kids being good was ... more

Apple Podcasts5rebeccadollardUnited States10 months ago - Life saving
I discovered Michelle and her podcast when my daughter was 2,5 y.o. And it’s been life changing. She helps me to see my default reactive patterns and how they play out in my relationship with my child. I also learn not to judge myself too harshly for mistakes and it helps me to be kinder towards my daughter. I’m fully committed to parenting without punishment and bribing and prioritizing my relationship over agenda. I highly recommend this podcast and Michelle as a coach to those parents that fe... more
