    220. How To Stop Comparing Yourself To Other Parents

    220. How To Stop Comparing Yourself To Other Parents

    Last week, I attended a coaching event with my mastermind group and it became clear to me why many parents struggle with raising sensitive kids.

     

    One business owner (also a mom) at the event was questioning if she belonged there because she was too focused on comparing her accomplishments to everyone else's online success. 

     

    But I could see that she was very close to reaching her own goals.

     

    I understand. 

     

    As parents, we are constantly measuring ourselves against an unrealistic or unknown standard, whether it's another mom who seems to have everything figured out or just an unattainable ideal of perfection.

    219. How To Handle A Sensitive Child That Isn’t Resilient

    Your sensitive child freezes in frustration, don't they?

     

    Schoolwork, chores, friendships - the second things get tough, they quit.

     

    As their parent, witnessing their lack of resilience breaks your heart.

     

    You know deep down that if they could move through discomfort, amazing things would happen.

     

    Yet every time you try coaching them, every time you encourage perseverance...

     

    You get met with tears, tantrums, and complete shutdown from your discouraged child.

     

    Your frustration boils over in those heated moments despite your best intentions.

     

    You revert to criticizing, yelling, or simply giving up yourself out of sheer exasperation.

     

    After all, you feel like you can't be calm and lead with compassion when they won’t listen.

    216. Rewriting Our Family’s Story: Savannah & Alan

    216. Rewriting Our Family’s Story: Savannah & Alan

    If it feels like your HSC is down in the dumps more than the average kid,

     

    You’ll want to hear this.

     

    You are not alone.

     

    Our client Savannah knows exactly how that feels, and that feeling was HARD to work through.

     

    Savannah’s story is common for parents who are stuck in the meltdown cycle.

     

    She wanted to be a mom for such a long time,

     

    And the fact that her child seemed melancholy SO often was disheartening.

     

    She describes her HSC as feeling upset and on edge constantly,

    Crying often,

    And even stated that there was a lack of connection.

     

    She felt like no matter how much her and Alan tried, 

    They could not meet their HSC’s needs.

     

    She also felt like she could not help her child in the midst of a meltdown.

     

    And that was really discouraging.

     

    In Savannah’s words, “I felt helpless. I was failing myself and my daughter.”

     

    So how did this family break out of the meltdown cycle with MTC’s help?

     

    Tune in to hear Savannah’s story.

    215. 3 Barriers To Parenting Sensitive Kids Consistently

    You try so hard to be a great parent, don't you?
     

    You read all the books, listen to the podcasts, join Facebook groups...
     

    You soak up every tip and trick to help your sensitive child stop melting down.
     

    And sometimes those strategies work - for a little while at least.
     

    For a week or two, your child is calmer and more in control of their big emotions.
     

    You breathe that sigh of relief, thinking you've finally cracked the code.
     

    But then, almost as quickly as the progress came, it's gone again.
     

    The meltdowns return, and you're back at square one, feeling defeated.
     

    Why does this keep happening? 
    Why can't you find something that actually sticks?
