    From Power Struggles to Play: Making Parenting Less Scary with Jillian Maeve

    Send a text Parenting can feel overwhelming, isolating, and sometimes… terrifying. But what if it didn’t have to be? In this episode of Make It Less Scary, I sit down with my dear friend Jillian Maeve artist, parent coach, former Montessori educator of over 20 years, and creator of The Playbook, a coaching container that helps parents connect with their children through play rather than control. Jillian has spent decades working with young children and families, and what she discovered is something both simple and revolutionary: Play is the most powerful parenting tool we have. In this conversation, we explore how shifting your energy, your environment, and your approach can completely transform the dynamics inside your home. You’ll hear: • Why traditional discipline often leads to power struggles • How play activates the brain and helps children regulate themselves • Why connection works better than correction • How parents can shift from control to collaboration • The surprising power of sensory play (yes… including the famous “spaghetti method”) But this episode is also personal. Jillian is a former client I coached as she stepped away from a 20-year career in education to build something entirely new around her gifts. Watching her step into her own path has been one of the most beautiful full-circle moments in my work. Today, she helps parents create homes where children feel respected, empowered, and safe to grow. And if you’re listening to this and thinking: “I want parenting to feel more joyful… less stressful… and more connected.” Jillian has created a beautiful container for parents called The Playbook, where she teaches these tools in depth. You can learn more about it here: https://www.jillianmaeve.com/ And if something inside this conversation stirred a deeper question in you  about fear, courage, growth, and the moments in life where we know we are ready for something more  I created a workshop for exactly that moment. It’s called: Why Not You. Why Not Now. A space where we explore the stories that keep us small and begin practicing the courage to show up differently. You can join the workshop here: https://stan.store/Makeitlessscary/p/expansion-lab-laugh-play--rewire-your-brain Because sometimes all it takes is the right room… and the right moment… to realize: why not you. why not now. https://www.instagram.com/lessscarywithmaria?igsh=MWNsYnNnaWh6dDFoNQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr

    I Get What I Want: The Real Story Behind Client Results

    Send a text What happens when a woman stops negotiating with her desire… and starts moving like it’s inevitable? In this episode, I’m sharing the story of a client who stepped into part of my four-week accelerator and completely shifted her results. Not because she “tried harder.” Not because she forced discipline. But because she got honest about what she actually wanted. We identified her real desire. We uncovered the resistance. We dismantled the patterns keeping her in contraction. And then? She moved. Cleanly. Powerfully. Decisively. This episode isn’t just about her win. It’s about how I coach. It’s about knowing when a client needs structure — and when she needs deeper desire awareness. It’s about why my methods work. It’s about the difference between chasing results and becoming the woman who simply gets what she wants. If you’ve been circling your next level… If you can feel there’s more available to you… If you want results without self-abandonment — This is your episode. And if you’re ready to stop dabbling and start accelerating? My four-week accelerator is where we do this work for real. https://www.instagram.com/lessscarywithmaria?igsh=MWNsYnNnaWh6dDFoNQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr

    Send a text Cambiar suena simple. Pero para tu cerebro… cambiar puede sentirse como peligro.

    Cuando la Mente Busca Significado: La Fe como Herramienta de Transformación

    Send a text En este episodio especial de cierre de año, exploramos un tema universal y sorprendentemente científico: la fe como parte natural del arco humano de la transformación. Junto a una angelóloga, abrimos una conversación profunda sobre por qué, en los momentos difíciles, nuestra mente, nuestro cuerpo y nuestro espíritu buscan algo más que respuestas: buscan significado. A través del Arco de la Transición Humana, hablamos de cómo nos movemos de: Shock: el cerebro se protege.Emoción: el cuerpo libera lo que no puede sostener.Búsqueda de apoyo: instintivamente buscamos conexión.Búsqueda de significado: aquí entran la fe, el ritual, la intuición y lo sagrado.Dirección: cuando finalmente estamos listos para avanzar. En esta conversación descubrirás: ✨ por qué la fe regula el sistema nervioso y crea coherencia interna ✨ cómo los rituales y prácticas espirituales ayudan en momentos de incertidumbre ✨ qué significa trabajar con ángeles desde una perspectiva moderna ✨ cómo integrar ciencia, coaching y espiritualidad sin perder solidez ✨ cómo construir tu propio equipo de apoyo para cualquier transición Este episodio es para ti si estás atravesando un cambio, si necesitas orientación, o si simplemente quieres entender mejor por qué la búsqueda de sentido es tan humana y tan necesaria. La fe no reemplaza la ciencia. La completa. Y juntas hacen que la vida sea menos aterradora. 🤍 Para conectar con Gloria Si quieres ponerte en contacto con Gloria (nuestra invitada y angelóloga), puedes enviarme un mensaje directo por Instagram o escribirme a: 📩 IG: @lessscarywithmaria 📧 Email: Maria.j.oliver@lessscarywithmaria.com Yo me encargo de hacer llegar tu mensaje y conectarlos directamente. https://www.instagram.com/lessscarywithmaria?igsh=MWNsYnNnaWh6dDFoNQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr

    El Portal de las Primeras Veces: Un Viaje Inolvidable

    Send a text Las primeras veces tienen su propio pulso. Es esa vibración entre el miedo y la emoción, entre lo que se termina y lo que está a punto de comenzar. En este episodio, te llevo conmigo a un viaje muy especial: el primero que hice sola con mi hijo después del divorcio. No era solo un destino nuevo; era una declaración. Una promesa a mí misma de que nuestra nueva vida podía ser expansiva, amorosa y valiente. Durante ese viaje entendí que el miedo también puede ser medicina. Que cuando lo miras de frente y lo invitas a caminar contigo, algo dentro de ti se reorganiza. Te vuelves más tú. El Portal de las Primeras Veces es una conversación sobre renacer desde el amor, sobre crear belleza en medio del cambio y sobre confiar en que incluso los comienzos más inciertos pueden sentirse como hogar. Si estás en tu propia primera vez — un nuevo amor, un cambio, un cierre o un inicio — este episodio es una invitación suave a cruzar ese portal con valentía y ternura. Porque cada primera vez puede ser inolvidable, y sí… puede ser menos aterradora. #MakeItLessScary #ElPortalDeLasPrimerasVeces #HistoriasDeValentía #ElArteDeAtreverte #TransformarElMiedo #CorajeEnAcción #DeMiedoAEvidencia #PrimeraVezSagrada #ViajeDeTransformación https://www.instagram.com/lessscarywithmaria?igsh=MWNsYnNnaWh6dDFoNQ%3D%3D&utm_source=qr
