    31. The Law of Attraction in Parenting

    If you want to see changes in anything the way that you speak about it has a monumental impact on what you experience, even in parenting. Want to see a change in your child's behaviors? Changing the way you speak about those behaviors is one of the first and crucial steps. In this episode, Khia shares the way that the words you speak and the beliefs that you hold about your children and your experiences with them changes the way you interact with them and how they see themselves way beyond the current moment.

    30. Kids Deserve Respect Too

    It's so interesting when I talk to adults about respecting children it's like I'm speaking a foreign language or something. If you do not show your children respect how do they learn how to look for it in other relationships and interactions? If their own parents do not believe they are worthy of respect (what you're saying each time I say respect kids and you choose not to) why would they expect respect from others? It starts with you. They are people too! Devotional Follow on IG Rising Above IG Facebook Group www.notesbykhia.com Contact Me: Have a question or topic you would like to hear more about on the podcast?

    29. Mental Health in the Black Community: Real or Made Up?

    If I had $10 for every time I've heard someone say, "we didn't have all that back in our day" when I talk about children's mental health among minority adults... We tend to avoid or dismiss what we don't understand. But, are we really doing our young people any justice by expecting them to just ignore their feeling like past generations or are we really doing them a disservice? Leaving them isolated in their feelings doesn't seem like a great idea to me... Want more information on student mental health?

    27. You Are Responsible for Your Own Emotions

    Often times as parents your children can trigger unhealed parts of yourself. This may be the reason you find yourself lashing out at them and getting so angry about their behaviors. In this episode I teach you how to determine if that is happening, how it typically plays out, how it can be harmful for your child, and how to fix it. Have questions?

    24. Is This A Phase? The Power of Love and Acceptance for LGBTQ+ Youth

    It seems like more and more youth are taking on (or taking off) labels that maybe you're not used to hearing.  I was joined by LGBTQ+ advocate, Jennifer Boudrye, to discuss what is going on with our youth and how we, as the adults, can show up for them.  According to the 2022 report conducted by The Trevor Project, a widely known advocacy agency for LGBTQ+ youth, "73% of LGBTQ+ youth experience anxiety" and 58% of those youth experience depression.  Being aware that this is still a hot/taboo topic particularly when it comes to youth, this podcast episode is not to debate what is right vs. wrong. This episode instead is intended to give adults support, as well as additional perspectives in how to support youth who you may know that share with you they feel connected to this community in any way.  Whether you have a child who has "come out" to you or not and regardless of what your beliefs are I encourage you to listen to the entire episode with an open heart and mind.  If you would like additional support or have additional questions you can always reach out to Jennifer through her website, www.parentwithcare.co or Khia at www.notesbykhia.com.  Additional resources:  www.thetrevorproject.org CDC PFLAG.org

    18. That's NOT Mindful Parenting!

    If what comes to mind when you think of mindful parenting is the parent who seems to have no "control" and allows their children to run all over them I'm here to tell you, that's not quite it - that is parenting without boundaries. This episode discusses how to use boundaries to decrease your stress, improve behaviors, and help you get back to the joy of parenting.

    17. It's Not Working

    Mindful Parenting is WORK!! One of the most common things I hear when teaching parents about being mindful in their parenting is, "We tried that, it didn't work". The thing is, as frustrating as it may be you have to keep working at it, it won't change over night - tbh, it probably won't change completely in the next 3 months. In this episode I am taking you through why it seems to be taking so long or not working and what you can do to make this a better experience for you and your family.  Connect with me:  Instagram: @notesbykhia  Facebook Community: Parents Raising Mentally Healthy Children  Let's Work Together: Book a Call With Me ☎️ 👀 FREEBIE 🎉  www.notesbykhia.com
