Are you a parent who struggling to balance your hopes for your child with how God made them to be? You are not alone. In this heartfelt episode, I share the art of rethinking our parental expectations and why it's so important to see for who they are, not what we think they should be.
I'll discuss the difference between guiding vs. controlling, how to set expectations that align with your child's unique strengths and interests, and the incredible transformation that happens when we are willing to adjust our expectations.
Listen today and discover the power that comes from seeing your child in a whole new light.
