Parenting is one of the most rewarding yet challenging journeys, and no one understands this better than Coach Maysaa—a mom of four, a former primary school teacher, and a certified Conscious Parent Coach. Trained under the renowned Dr. Shefali, Maysaa specializes in cognitive behavioral therapy and behavioral profiling, helping parents navigate the ups and downs of raising emotionally intelligent children.

In this episode, we dive deep into the truth about sibling rivalry—why it happens, why it’s actually normal, and how parents can manage conflict without guilt. Maysaa breaks down why setting boundaries isn’t selfish, how parents can communicate expectations effectively, and why resilience is built through moments of disappointment and recovery.

If you've ever struggled with parent guilt, sibling fights, or feeling overwhelmed with the day-to-day chaos of parenting, this conversation is for you. Tune in now to gain valuable insights, practical tools, and a whole new perspective on parenting that prioritizes connection over control.
