The Parenting Advice I No Longer Give – 409

About this episode

Pam Howard discusses the evolution of her parenting advice and the challenges of implementing good parenting strategies.

Over the past 14 years of coaching moms, I've learned a lot and changed my mind about a few things. You might assume I'm talking about time-outs, sticker charts, rewards, consequences, or some other parenting strategy. The truth is, my views on those things haven't changed all that much. What has changed is where I begin with a client and my understanding of why it's so hard to put good parenting advice into practice in the first place. In this week's podcast episode, I share how my coaching has evolved, what led me to explore nervous system work, and why the advice I give today sounds different than it did earlier in my career. If you've ever struggled with reactive parenting and wondered why knowing what to do doesn't always translate into doing it, this episode is for you.
