About this episode

What's Your Parenting Superpower?


In this episode, I share a personal story about my background and also my parenting superpower: language! I talk about the power of intentional language, the meaning behind the words we use and how to empower the child in your life with the intentionality of the language you use.


Love the intentional language scripts you can use with your toddler?
