    How To Support Development of The Senses w/ Lalla Carini

    How To Support Development of The Senses w/ Lalla Carini

    A lot of you've reached out to me with questions around sensory issues, sensory integration, and how to support the development of the senses in our young children.
    For today's show, I invited a dear friend Lalla Carini who's been an extremely important teacher in my life for the past 14 years to share her wisdom and experience.
    She holds a tremendous amount of love and compassion around these topics and I'm so excited to share with you today.

    Preparing For The First Day of School

    Preparing For The First Day of School

    If your child has some anxiety about separating, it can be super helpful for them to see you connecting with the teacher.  I would invite the parent to hold their child and sit down with me for tea.
    When the child witnesses the safety and trust that is present between parent and teacher, they can more easily trust themselves.  This can be more important than pressuring the child to open up to the teacher and accept them.
    Also, if you have rarely left your child, then some practice with family members or good friends is a good idea before school.  Practice your goodbye routine over and over at grandma’s house then when you do it on the first day, it will actually feel supportive.
    Enjoy The Show

    How To Get Your Child To Clean Up After Themselves

    How To Get Your Child To Clean Up After Themselves

    Our children stand before us with endless “What” and “Why” questions, they push back on our requests, refuse our meals, and challenge us to go back inside and come up with something better than, “Because I said so!”
    But the truth is, during these formative years, our children take in very little of our verbal communication with them.
    So many parents worry about crafting the perfect answer, offering the right activity, disciplining the most effectively, etc, when what matters the most is our internal world.
    They mimic the way we care, our devotion, our sense of purpose, our problem-solving strategies, our rigidity, the way we love…

    Useful Tips For Parenting and Life w/ Rob Scott

    Useful Tips For Parenting and Life w/ Rob Scott

    Today’s conversation is a dense one.  
    I would recommend listening when you are not distracted or multi tasking.
    We are headed into about an hour with a dear friend of mine named Rob Scott.
    He has spent the last decade of his life working with hundreds of thousands of people, shifting their identities, and showing them how to evolve their consciousness and get incredible results across all areas of their businesses, their health, their relationships, and their entire lives.
    I have been blessed with the opportunity to work with Rob myself in a few different ways over the past 4 years and I am so grateful.  What I find so profound is that all of the shifts I made while working with him have been impossible to unsee. And the illumination of what is truly serving me in my life, being able to let go of all that isn’t, has allowed me to show up in service to you parents in a whole new way.
    So I am really excited to share this conversation with you.  
    Much Love.
    -Christina

Listen to every single episode!

This is the best podcast I have ever listened to. It’s also the only time I’ve felt so inspired and connected to techniques and teachings for parenting. Her interviews are always packed with interesting information and wonderful guests. I’m bummed it’s no longer being made. Christina is an amazing teacher and I feel so blessed to have discovered this woman and the wisdom she shares.
