What’s A Parenting Dial? A Fun Podcast
I met Rich Weingart during a year-long personal growth experience. His smile and sincerity were immediately contagious. During this experience, Rich shared a story about how he showed up for his daughter which touched me. It brought me back to a challenging moment in my childhood. It was healing to hear his story and how he consciously and lovingly showed up for his family. Rich and I have stayed in touch since, and I was excited when he so graciously invited me to be a guest on his podcast, A Richer Life.
Before we started recording the podcast, Rich invited me to take a moment to breathe with him. A pause to be present. An opportunity to center ourselves so we could deliver meaningful content to you. Our conversation took flight. Rich asked me curious and compelling questions and shared his own real-life parenting experiences—no sugar coating just refreshing honesty with a splash of humor. We chatted all about Conscious Parenting. Listen to the podcast here plus here’s a sneak peek of our conversation:
Learn the two critical questions to ask yourself before entering any parent moment (based on neuroscience).
What’s a parenting dial? You have the power to set your own dial every day. The dial doesn’t have to be cranked up all the time to do, do, do & go, go, go. You can consciously set your dial based on what your parent brain and body needs.
Learn what a parenting vision is and how it helps you reset after a parenting oops.
Perfect parenting is a trap. Allowing space for parenting oopses sets us free and teaches our children how to handle them too.
Learn about moment-to-moment parenting and how it can help things feel more doable, no more pressure to be a perfect parent.
Plus a sneak peek of my six Parent Jobs with practical examples.
A big thank you to Rich for creating a safe and welcoming place to chat about Conscious Parenting. Listen to the full podcast here: “Conscious Parenting - How do we show up for ourselves and our family?”
Cheers to this beautifully messy journey we call parenting!
