Unresolved childhood wounds can influence your reactions and relationships with your children. By breaking generational cycles and cultivating self-awareness, parents can create more empathetic, connected and supportive environments for their families.
This week, I welcome back Bryana Kappadakunnel, author of the book Parent Yourself First, to discuss how to combine self-compassion, accountability and intentional parenting to nurture both the child within and the child in front of you.
She joins me to discuss:
- How addressing personal past wounds allows you to be a more present and empathetic parent
- The need to stop unhealthy family patterns and break generational cycles
- Practical strategies to nurture emotional connection and raise self-aware children
