    60: How We Failed As New Parents with Steph and Alex.

    Today, we're pulling back the curtain on our parenting - and let’s just say, it wasn’t all sunshine and Instagram-worthy moments. This is a bunch of things we wish we knew when we first became parents...With Alex's childhood blueprint and programming the *polar opposite* of mine, we had a lot to unlearn (and re-learn) when it came to navigating the chaos of parenthood together. We talk about: - How giving each other space saved us from spiralling arguments. - Why you should never take your kids’ words, or your partner’s emotions, personally. - Alex’s journey to taking accountability and breaking the cycle of reactive behaviour. - My struggle to ask for help and express my feelings (spoiler: it wasn’t pretty). - The power of understanding emotional hijacks and knowing when to step out of the situation- How to “strike when the iron is cold.” to prevent shame, blame and basically more conflict.We’ll also explore how his upbringing (where emotions basically didn't exist) impacted our dynamic and how we’ve worked to defuse problems before they explode into snapping and snowballing. It’s real, raw, and maybe even a little uncomfortable—but if you’ve ever felt like you’re failing as a parent or partner, trust us, you’re not alone. Tune in for honest lessons, practical tips, and a whole lot of heart.Hope you guys enjoy.(Please ask us questions! Send us your feedback!

    59: How to Get The Happier, Calmer and Connected Family You Want With Emotional Intelligence

    Today I’m sharing an episode where I was the guest – being interviewed by JoAnn Crohn and Brie Tucker on the No Guilt Mom podcast.   So, you’ve decided you want a happier, calmer, and more connected family, eh? Well, friend, welcome to the rollercoaster ride known as “parenting with emotional intelligence.”   Parenting often involves navigating different styles, which, being 100% honest, can sometimes feel like you and your partner are in a three-legged race…on ice.    Emotional intelligence helps you understand each other’s perspectives and find common ground. Just imagine your kid having the ability to understand and manage their emotions while empathizing with others. Sounds like a dream, right?    By nurturing emotional intelligence, you’re not just preparing them for playground politics but equipping them for life’s bigger challenges. Plus, who wouldn’t want a kid who can articulate their feelings instead of falling apart or throwing things in fits of anger?   So, if you’re dreaming of a happier, calmer, and more connected family, emotional intelligence is your secret weapon. Trust me, the journey might be bumpy, but the destination is oh-so-worth it.   Who knows, you might even become that zen parent who handles those spaghetti-throwing incidents with a smile. Now, that’s emotional intelligence at work!   Podcast: https://www.noguiltmom.com/podcast-2/ Transcript: https://www.noguiltmom.com/how-to-get-the-happier-calmer-and-connected-family/ YT: https://www.youtube.com/c/NoGuiltMom Hosted on Acast.

    58: Anxiety and Emotional Intelligence: From Overthinking to Overcoming.

    Today I’m pulling back the curtain on my own experience with anxiety and how I overcame it with Emotional Intelligence. From my early years as a shy, anxious kid to the struggles it brought me as a teen and adult — especially when it came to school, confidence, and building my career — I’m sharing it all. Why? Because I know so many of you, whether as parents or individuals, are grappling with anxiety, too. I explore the different types of anxiety disorders (yes, there’s more than one!) and dig into the problematic thinking patterns that underpin and fuel anxiety. This gives you such a clear window into seeing how an anxious child thinks and perceives the world around them. Whether you’ve experienced anxiety yourself or you want to understand your kids through it, this episode is packed with insights, personal stories, and practical advice to help you build a life of calm and confidence. ***   If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

    Alex (the husband!) and I are getting real about the rollercoaster of raising kids in a world full of online games, social media, and YouTube. We know the internet isn’t going anywhere, so instead of banning it all, we talk about finding that balance between letting our kids enjoy the digital world and keeping them safe.We did make the decision to remove YouTube from our home, and we share why we chose to do it. But our kids do have access to computer games, Minecraft, Roblox, and so on.Alex - who’s a big-time gamer - talks about setting smart boundaries for our kids on things like YouTube Kids and online games. His perspective as a gamer really adds a fresh angle, and he’s seriously got some solid tips.Oh, and there's a wild story from Alex about how our son decided to jump off the roof (yes, you read that right!). It was a reminder of why staying aware and tuned in is so important, no matter what your kids are up to.We also tackle the tougher topic of online dangers, like predators, and how to talk to kids about staying safe. You absolutely NEED to give your kids the knowledge, without scaring them.Tune in for our take on raising tech-savvy kids safely—without saying “no” to everything fun.***If this resonates with you, I'd love to hear from you.

    Guys my husband is joining me on the channel again!! 😆 A few years ago, we started off with completely different views on parenting — he was skeptical of emotional intelligence, thinking it was “soft” and a waste of time.

We chat about how we discipline our kids, handle big emotions, and why EI has strengthened our family bond. Plus, we’ll bust some common myths about emotional intelligence!
