Cycle Breakers Part 4: A Foundation of Equity, Believe the Need Behind the Behavior You AF

    • Mental Health

Something you hear a lot in the parenting coach circles is "meet the need behind the behavior." This means that no behavior is bad, rather simply a communication that there is a need.
I take this to the next level and require we "believe" the need behind the behavior is  valid and worthy of being met no matter the way it's communicated.
When we question the needs and insert our thoughts and decide whether our children really need what they are asking for that's where it gets messy. 
Understanding that we all have needs and our needs are valid and inherently worthy of being met is a crucial piece of healing our own wounds and teaching our kids to honor themselves and others. 
In this episode I share the importants of understanding the different layers of human needs from basics like food, water & safety to love & belonging. 
The understanding of these layers, not only helps us learn how to move from surviving to thriving but also leads to viewing the world in a more equitable way. 
This conversation not only feels necessary, but timely in shifting the communal conciously. 
The conversation of the inherent worthiness of needs being met that we have in our homes, helps instill a family value of equity as our children start to relate to the greater community.
