    Ep63: How to Stop Being a Yelling Mom with Hunter Clarke-Fields

    Did you think "I'm not a yelling parent" pre-parenthood but then you became a parent and realized you became that parent you didn't want to be? You're not alone. Be honest — did you have a whole vision of the kind of parent you'd be before kids arrived? Patient. Calm. Never a yeller. And then… real life happened. The spilled cereal at 7am. The homework meltdown. The "I already asked you five times" moment. Suddenly you're hearing your own mother's voice coming out of your mouth and wondering how did I get here? Friend, you are not alone — and you are not broken. In this episode, mindful parenting expert Hunter Clarke-Fields joins me to talk about why so many of us become the yelling parent we swore we'd never be, and more importantly, what we can actually do about it. 🌿 In This Episode We Talk About Why the "I'll never yell" promise we made pre-kids is almost impossible to keep — and why that's not your faultWhat's actually happening in your brain when you lose it (hint: it's not a character flaw)How our own childhood experiences get triggered in parenting momentsThe mindfulness practices that help you pause before you reach your breaking pointWhy self-compassion isn't letting yourself off the hook — it's how you actually changeWhat to do after a yelling moment to repair with your kids and yourself 👩‍💼 About Hunter Clarke-Fields Hunter Clarke-Fields is the host of the Mindful Parenting Podcast (a top 0.5% podcast globally), a global speaker, #1 bestselling author, a Mindfulness Meditation teacher, and creator of the Mindful Parenting Course and Teacher Training.
