Threads: Sarah R. Moore 🌟 Author & Conscious Parenting Trainer...SHOWNOTES: Remember when Sarah and I delved into sustainable sleep habits for kids in episode 72? Well, this time around, Sarah and I are back to tackle another essential parenting topic: highly sensitive children and their incredible gifts.

Now, as I relaunched the podcast, I knew I wanted Sarah back to explore another parenting topic. When I asked her what she was passionate about discussing, she suggested diving into the world of highly sensitive children and their parents. And guess what? I was all in! 

Like many of us, Sarah's upbringing was shaped by a highly sensitive parent—her single mom. Growing up in that environment, Sarah not only inherited her mother's sensitivity but also witnessed firsthand the challenges and strengths it brought.

Why do people tend to have a negative view of high sensitivity?In my recent conversation with Sarah, she shed some light on why people tend to have a negative view of high sensitivity. Sara’s perspective is that part of the problem lies in the misconception that all sensitivity is the same. She continued by sharing that there are two distinct ty

In today's fast-paced world, it's easy to get caught up in the hustle and bustle of daily life. But amidst the chaos, it's essential to recognize and address our children's innate need for connection. They crave our time, our attention, and most importantly, our presence. And that's where the 100 Minute Connection Challenge comes in.

Now, for this momentous episode, I wanted to switch things up a bit and stay true to the theme of 100. So, I've devised an exciting challenge for you – the 100 Minute Connection Challenge. This challenge is designed to inspire you to deepen the bonds with your children over the course of a week. Because let's face it, one of the most vital aspects of parenting is nurturing a strong, secure, and heartfelt connection with our kids.

Throughout this episode, I'll be sharing all the details of this challenge, including how it works and what you can expect. But wait, there's more! I've also created a downloadable PDF bingo board, with a link to download found in the show notes.

DESCRIPTION:

Hey there, wonderful parents, and welcome back to the 3D Parent Podcast! Joining me today is Natasha, a supermom raising two incredible girls, ages seven and eleven.

Natasha kicks off our session by sharing her concerns about her tween daughters' growing fascination with trends, brands, and materialistic values. She's noticing shifts in her behavior, from sweetness to occasional sassiness, and she's feeling the strain on their once-close relationship. Natasha also wonders about finding the delicate balance between offering support and letting her daughters navigate their own paths as they grow up. These are common challenges many parents face as their children transition from childhood to adolescence.

Here are the burning topics what we'll cover:

Trend-Oriented Culture: We'll explore how to navigate the materialistic trends that seem to dominate tween culture and discuss ways to instill deeper values beyond brand names.

Managing Sass and Sensitivity: Natasha's facing the challenge of balancing her daughter's sweet, sensitive side with those moments of unexpected rudeness. We'll share some practical tips for maintaining a strong, respectful relationship during this “rollercoaster” phase.

How Much to Intervene vs. Empower Independent Problem Solving: We'll delve into the delicate art of knowing when to step in and when to step back, offering insights on providing support without smothering independence as our tweens navigate the ups and downs of life.

The emotional rollercoaster of tweenhood can sometimes lead to unexpected behavior, leaving us parents wondering how to handle those off-cuff rude moments without losing the precious bond we share with our child. Throughout this episode, we'll explore how to strike a delicate balance between setting boundaries and maintaining a strong, supportive relationship with our tweens.

SHOWNOTES:

Let me introduce you to our guest, Natasha. Natasha is a super mom, raising two incredible girls—one almost seven and the other newly 11. As a fellow mom and friend, Natasha and I often find ourselves deep in conversation about the joys and struggles of parenting tweens. And today, we're inviting you to join in on the conversation as we tackle some of the challenges Natasha is facing.

Let's address Natasha's concerns, one by one. First up, the trend-oriented nature of today's youth. It's no secret that tweens are heavily influenced by trends, from fashion to technology to social media. But how do we navigate this trend-centric culture without losing sight of what truly matters?

Next, we'll tackle the rollercoaster of emotions that come with tweenhood. Natasha's concern about her oldest daughter's sudden mood swings is one that many parents can relate to. We'll discuss ways to navigate these hormonal changes with empathy and understanding, maintaining a strong parent-child bond even in the face of off-cuff rude moments.

And finally, the age-old question: when to step back and when to step in? As our tweens grow older, it can be challenging to find the balance between independence and support. We'll explore strategies for knowing when to give our tweens space to navigate challenges on their own and when to offer a helping hand, whether it's in navigating fr

Now, for some of you, this might just be a case of your kid not being the tidiest or most organized soul, and that's totally okay. But for others, it could be a sign of something deeper – hoarding behaviors. When you think of hoarding, maybe you've seen those intense episodes of "Hoarders" on TV, where you're simultaneously fascinated, alarmed, and intrigued by the psychological complexity behind it all.

While we're diving into some strategies today, it's super important to understand that this podcast isn't a substitute for professional assessment.

If your child's distress levels are off the charts when it comes to their possessions, it may be time to loop in a psychologist, a doctor, or someone who is an expert on psychological conditions in kids.Signs and Symptoms of Hoarding in ChildrenI. First, you need to identify if your child has any physical indicators of hoarding behavior It's a crucial distinction, and here's how you can make it. Dr. Jerry Bubrick, of the Child Mind Institute, uses these four insightful questions to help assess for physical indicators of hoarding behaviors:1. Can you see the floor in your child’s room?

2. Can your child get clean clothes out of their closet, or is it so packed with stuff that they can’t get in there?

3. Can your child sleep in their bed, or is their bed temporary storage for everything?

4. Can your child do homework/projects at their desk, or is their d

SHOWNOTES: Hello, wonderful listeners! I'm thrilled to have you join us for episode 97 of the 3D Parent Podcast. Today, I am joined by a special guest, Cai Graham, an international speaker, a best-selling author, and a podcaster herself. Talk about a powerhouse! Cai is a family anxiety support specialist with a laser focus on supporting teens, young adults, and their parents. Her mission? To build a mentally healthier and happier generation of young people. With a background as a master practitioner in coaching, NLP, and timeline therapy, plus her hands-on experience with Childline, the UK's leading child counseling charity, Cai's got the perfect combo of skills.

From understanding and managing anxiety to building resilience and promoting self-care, she's equipped to tackle it all. I sat down with Cai on this episode to ask her about her take on Fears and Phobias in kids and how parents  help them navigate the tough moments when they crop up and how to help children build a toolbox of coping strategies.What are fears and phobias? 

First off, I asked Cai: What's the deal with fears and phobias? Where do they come from? Are they just cousins of anxiety, or is there more to the story?  

So, according to Cai, fears and phobias are indeed related to anxiety, but they're not the same. Fears, she explained, are our natural response to a perceived threat. Our unconscious mind, in its wisdom, is constantly on high alert, a leftover survival instinct from the days of dodging saber-toothed tigers. Now, that was a legit threat, and our unconscious mind kept us safe from it.

But here's the twist – for many folks dealing with anxiety, that alert system doesn't shut down. It's like our uncons

DESCRIPTION: So much of parenting is finding what works for you and your family, even if it means coloring outside the lines every now and then. Welcome to episode number 96 of The 3D Parent Podcast! Today, we're tackling a topic that might raise a few eyebrows: "Inconsistent Parenting.” We've all been told that consistency is the holy grail of effective discipline, right? But let's take a step back and really think about what consistency means in the context of parenting. We're not talking about your everyday routines like bedtime or mealtime (though those are important too!). No, we're diving deeper into those unpredictable moments where you've gotta think on your feet and make decisions that are best for your strong-willed child. Here are the main topics we’ll cover in this episode:


Necessary Consistency: Your Role: Being the “Nurturing Alpha”

3 Strategies Which Leverage Inconsistency as an Effective Parenting Approach

SHOWNOTES: In today's episode, we're flipping the script and taking a closer look at the concept of inconsistency in parenting. But don’t worry! We're not talking about throwing routines out the window. Those everyday rituals like bedtime, mealtime, and screen time– they're important for keeping the peace and giving our kids a sense of security. What we're talking about here are those moments when you find yourself making decisions based on your child's current needs.While traditional parenting wisdom often emphasizes consistency as the holy grail of effective discipline, those of us with spirited  children know that it's not always that simple. Strong-willed children are characterized by their independence, determination, brightness, and spirited nature. They have a knack for pushing boundaries, questioning authority, and asserting their own opinions from a young age. While these traits can be challenging to navigate as parents, they also come with a host of positive attributes, such as resilience, creativity, and a strong sense of self. It's important to recognize that these children aren't being defiant or difficult on purpose – they're simply wired to march to the beat of their own drum. What Requires Consistency?At the heart of effective parenting lies embodying the role of a "nurturing alpha" – a 3D Parent concept that emphasizes the importance of both relational attunement and sturdy leadership. For parents of strong-willed children, fostering a secure attachment becomes even more crucial as it provides an essential foundation for navigating the complexities of their spirited nature.

Research has consistently shown that children who feel securely attached to their caregivers exhibit fewer oppositional behaviors. This alone underscores the importance of investing time and effort into nurturing the relationship with our strong-willed children. By providing a safe haven for our children to express themselves, we can significantly decre
