Parenting Experts In The Wild: Our Mista...

DEAR MEDIA, ALIZA PRESSMAN
About this episode

In this episode, Tina and I discuss personal moments of our parenting missteps, explore instances where our reactions didn't align with my expertise and what we might have done differently. We discuss the benefits of imperfections, the power of repair, and the importance of modeling self-compassion for our children. Through our real-life anecdotes, we highlight the challenges and lessons learned from our experiences, and offer practical takeaways on setting boundaries, managing fear-based parenting, and the pivotal role of repair in maintaining strong, trusting relationships with our kids.
