We don’t have to inherit our parenting skills. We can intentionally become the parents we want to be, incorporating some aspects of our own upbringing along with new, better parenting techniques.
In this episode, Vanessa is joined by her clients Siobhan and Tony to talk through the parenting journey they have been on to gain confidence and skills in raising their 5-year-old son. Together with Vanessa, they walk through a tough parenting situation they have faced, what they have learned through their coaching and parenting work, and participate in a live coaching demo of an issue they are currently facing. Live coaching helps us all get out of the vague hypothetical style of parenting advice and into actual concrete tools that can help parents just like you. You will walk away from this episode with new parenting strategies and the inspiration you need from these incredible parents to try them out yourself.
