What does it feel like to be in an anger cycle at home?How do you know if your parent/child relationship is damaged and what do you do about it?How did the pandemic shape behavior you are seeing today in your home?All these questions and more are answered in this fun and energetic conversation with Nellie and Robbin! Listen in and join us!About the Guest:https://www.parentingforconnection.com/https://www.instagram.com/robbinmcmanne_parentcoach/ My name is Robbin McManne and I, like so many, struggled for years because I wasn't the parent I wanted to be. I struggled to find a connection with my two boys. I had so much love for them, but I found I was often overwhelmed with their needs and losing my temper on a regular basis (sometimes even more than them!). The more frustrated I got, the unhappier I felt. I knew what I was doing wasn't working and that there must be a better way. Through searching for answers, found the Conscious Parenting community. I discovered how I could connect with my kids and through this connection, I found myself, I found joy, and I found my life's work...but most importantly, I found a connection with the people I love the most on this earth, my two boys!I am a certified Parenting Coach through the Jai Institute for Parenting. I have worked with a wide variety of parents from Canada, The United States, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK. I feel honored to have found this way of parenting and to be able to help families who are experiencing some of the same struggles I have faced. Because of this work, I am a more confident, happy, and connected parent.​I live on the beautiful West Coast. Together with my husband Cory, we are raising two fun, energetic and athletic boys. When I'm not working, I enjoy being active, connecting with friends & family, and being a cheerleader on the sidelines of my boys' sports.

As a woman so many of us have gone into our careers and passions with 3 false ideas: 1.    What leadership is 2.    What success is 3.    That there is a “balance” between life and career that can be achieved and stabilized. All 3 of these ideals can act as an inevitable emotional cliff that if we were to prepare sooner, we could have been better suited for. Find out in this conversation the tops 3 things you can do NOW to help your children prepare realistically and enthusiastically for their future! About the Guest: My team and I help highly educated moms, who have careers in male-dominated, demanding, high-stress/high-burnout/high-attrition, or competitive fields: redefine their career-minded mom identity design a strategic personal brand and back-to-work/career plan after kids * Create a work-life balance that doesn't leave them constantly overwhelmed, feeling lonely, misunderstood, stressed, torn, and too tired for romance, and uplevel their working mom mindset so that they have more time for themselves, their kids, and partner intimacy – all while getting that next promotion or raise, feeling attractive for their partner (and self!), and feeling empowered to make financial choices that are aligned with their new values as a parent AND working woman. We also create custom workshops that help corporations cut the costs of losing parent talent and enhance their retention practices by: · Making retention of parent talent an integrative part of their diversity and inclusion strategy, removing confusion, resentment, and inequity around parental leave transitions · Designing actionable, maternity and parental leave resources that reduce manager overwhelm and increase employee performance during those transitions · Designing tools and programs to help their parent employees return to work confident and ready for action after a parental leave I love to network and provide immediate support to parents who need an action plan.

Parenting burnout is real. But how can we actually face that reality (instead of suffering silently with it), accept that reality (instead of stuffing it down or feeling guilt and shame about it), and do something productive out of it? In this episode, we are going to get into these hard questions and discuss the work/life balance of parenthood. Is it a real thing and if so how do I find some?

Challenges in life are guaranteed! In this childhood training ground for adulting (otherwise known as being a teenager), helping your child walk through challenges is one of the hardest experiences as a parent. But, without that push out of the nest, they never learn to fly and become an advocate for themselves. This is a practice, not a one-and-done skill. WHY? Because we have to be advocates for ourselves (and one day our families, friends, and more) and the many ways that this is required of us are as diverse as the wildflowers. So, the more practice the better, but there are 6 things that need to be taught and practiced when facing this self-leadership hurdle.

In this episode, we are going to cover topics from the typical pediatrics exam to the places in pediatrics that are needing more attention (especially for teens and tweens) and how to transition our teens from the idea of the “little kid” doctor to taking their health more seriously, and into their hands, as a teen. We want them to be advocates of their wellness and how can we help that become a reality along their journey?

(No more sketchy google searches!) Outside of her work, she enjoys being a mom to her teen and preteen! Mostly as their chauffeur. She lives in Manhattan Beach, CA, and loves spending time in nature, walking, and running by the beach.

Why do young women huddle? She used to be so confident and now she seems so insecure. Why is that? What happens when they are left out of the group? All of these questions and more are addressed in this episode all about the community behavior of young women and why they think the way they do and congregate in groups and leave some out. There is one key factor.  Listen in and find out what it is and how you can help your daughter grow through it instead of being chained to the stories of worth swimming in her head.

My DAMN framework has inspired hundreds to connect with the people that they love, do the “crazy thing” that makes all the difference, and, when given a choice, take the damn trip. My most recent “Trip” is that I recently gave birth to my 3rd IVF baby conceived with the embryos my late husband and I had frozen before his passing. Additionally, I'm a business strategist and coach who supports small businesses and entrepreneurs in developing and executing strategies to take their revenue to 6- and 7-figures.

Raising a child is big work and we all get a surprise in the middle of it all when it shifts from the needs of the first half to the different and more specific needs of the second half. It is easy to get flustered, lost, and frustrated as a parent (and child) during these years, but there is a sequence of steps, a path, all uniquely walked by each parent, that takes you through their needs and builds what they need before they leave home. In this episode, we walk through the first couple of steps of this more unknown (2nd half of childhood) path and what you can do to help your daughter become a person who knows their worth and values and appreciates themselves in this world.

There is so much to think about and do as a tween/teen parent and where do we focus? How do we help them be ready? What are the hard logistics and the soft lessons?  Tune into this episode to hear from a woman who has written the book on it, and several more, as we discuss the ins and outs of this journey, where to keep your focus, and how to behave as a parent during these challenging years! About the Guest: Cynthia Clumeck Muchnick, M.A.  Cindy, a graduate of Stanford University, is an expert in the college admission process: she got her start in admission offices before opening private study skills and college counseling business in Southern California, which she ran for over fifteen years. As an Assistant Director of Admission for the Illinois Institute of Technology and the University of Chicago, she screened and reviewed over three thousand applications, interviewed prospective students, and served on the admission committee to evaluate borderline applicants and appeals cases. Then, as a private counselor, she helped hundreds of high school students navigate their academic journeys, including course selection, study skills, time management, and college applications. Since closing her private educational practice in 2011, Cindy has focused on public speaking to students, parents, schools, and business groups on a variety of education-related topics. Over the course of her career, Cindy has written numerous books: The Parent Compass is her tenth. Her other titles include The Best College Admission Essays (co-author, ARCO/Peterson's, 1997), The Everything Guide to Study Skills: Strategies, Tips, and Tools You Need to Succeed in School (F&W Media, 2011), Straight-A Study Skills (co-author, Adam's Media, 2012), The Everything College Checklist Book (F&W Media, 2013), Writing Successful College Applications: It's More than Just the Essay (Peterson's Publishing, 2014), and four other books (Simon & Schuster and Random House). In her research for these books, she interviewed the Deans of Admission of Amherst, Bates, Bucknell, University of Chicago, Columbia, Duke, Grinnell, New York University, University of Pennsylvania, University of Notre Dame, Occidental, University of Rochester, University of Southern California, Stanford, Vanderbilt, University of Virginia, Wesleyan, Williams, and Yale.  Cindy holds a bachelor's degree in Political Science and Art History from Stanford University and a master's degree in Liberal Studies from Nova Southeastern University. Some of the other twists and turns in her multifaceted career include her stints as a campus tour guide and volunteer student coordinator for Stanford's Office of Undergraduate Admission, and a tenth-grade history teacher at The University School, in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. Cindy raised her family in Newport Beach, CA, and moved to Menlo Park, CA, in 2018, where she resides with her husband and four children.

What can we do? It seems so complicated and tangled and the finger-pointing is going around and around, so the problem is revolving instead of resolving.   There are 4 conversations that need to be had and the best place to start is in your living room. In this episode, I dive into each conversation and what that means.   This is NOT a political debate. This is NOT a policy debate. This is NOT about blame or shame.    This is about all of us agreeing that this is not ok and finding solutions.   *WARNING- This podcast does discuss school shootings.

This episode is so fun, as you would expect an interview with an expert on play to be. Roya and Nellie go deeper than the smiles and giggles when it comes to play and examine the bigger effects at play (pun totally intended!) How does play affect their curiosity, validation, perspective on diversity, tolerance, problem-solving, and more! We are not just talking about barbies, cars, and kitchen here either. We are talking about video games, board games, card games, interactive play, and those things that tweens and teens do to explore their curiosity and creativity.  This is a great episode to help connect parents with their kids through play and, bonus, we go through some great television for your family to enjoy together!   About the Guest: Roya Dedeaux Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist royadedeaux@gmail.com www.royaboya.com http://instagram.com/royadedeaux (http://instagram.com/royadedeaux) Roya Dedeaux MFT: Roya Dedeaux is a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist with a focus on parenting and play.

There are “touchy” people and “non-touchy” people, but the fact is physical contact is important in the human experience, and diving in and getting curious about how we feel about touch is important. So often the aversions are from childhood traumas and dramas and exploring the emotional healing is just as important, and probably more so than the physical healing.   This week we dive into all the ways you can use touch as a parent to help convey your love, understanding, and support even during the hard conversations.

Have you wondered how to do ALL of the things you need to and are expected to do as a parent and still have time to put anything on the table that isn't prepackaged fast food? Finding time for real food is a challenge and, in this episode, Kristy gives us the 5 tips on how to meal prep without breaking your money or time budget. And, because we are living when we are, I wanted to touch on how to get and stay in your wellness when the grocery store shelves are sparse, and the prices are astronomical.  Listen in for some all-around amazing tips and tricks for your family when it comes to food, including those picky eaters! About the Guest: Kristy Baranovskis Certified Health Coach kleaneatingwithkristy@gmail.com www.kleaneatingwithkristy.com  https://www.instagram.com/kleaneatingwithkristy/ (https://www.instagram.com/kleaneatingwithkristy/) https://www.facebook.com/kristy.baranovskis.9 (https://www.facebook.com/kristy.baranovskis.9) https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbqNaAMzzkCLzmOPrZQbO2A (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbqNaAMzzkCLzmOPrZQbO2A)   I am Kristy, a certified Health Coach, specializing in nutrition and meal prep. I work with busy moms to create simple, easy routines in the kitchen so that they have less stress and more time in their day.  From the time I can remember, I struggled with food. Food was the center of our family gatherings growing up. Over time, food became a comfort and also what I turned to when I was bored. The problem was the food I turned to was empty in calories and void of nutritional value. I looked to food for comfort again after my oldest daughter was born and my marriage began to dissolve. I went through a divorce and found myself a single working mom. Finances were a struggle, I was depressed and I was thankful to just get through to the end of the week. I found myself lacking in skills to deal with all these life stressors, and found my usual comfort in food. Sometimes you have an “ah-ha” moment. Mine happened on my 30th birthday while visiting my brother. I clearly remember standing on his deck, thinking that I did not want to eat like this any longer! Something had to change! I was so unhappy with myself. I was unhappy with the way I felt. Nutrition has become such a big part of my life, that I now am passionate about dedicating myself to helping other moms like me solve this very problem in their own lives. I want to provide working moms strategies and tools so they can spend time with their family doing things they love instead of stressing over what they will be making for dinner.

In this episode, Nellie and Kelly travel through parenthood in a rear-view mirror.  Kelly has already raised her son now and realized there were some things she would have done differently if she were to do it again.  She has turned this into a passion for moms in helping them destress, build healthy boundaries, and show up as their authentic selves.  In this discussion, we talk about giving your child room to explore, fail and learn and how they are the groundwork for what is to come in life.

This was an absolutely fascinating discussion about the observations and experiences of Joanne and her family from around the world!  How does your parenting compare to the norms in Germany, Australia, and South Africa?  What pressures do we have on ourselves that other cultures do not even recognize and visa versa?  There are so many ways to parent.  In this podcast, you will be opened up to other cultures and have an adventurous exploration of parenthood and family life About the Guest:  Joanne Holbrook is a mother of two children and spouse to a United States Army Officer, who has lived and raised her family in South Africa, England, Germany, Australia, and across the United States.

This experience, combined with the world travels that come with a military lifestyle, and her teaching in performing art schools for the past 25 years has allowed Joanne to observe culture and parenting from multiple international perspectives and with a broader world view. She is an author, professional keynote speaker, parenting advocate, and entrepreneur, who through her friendships, book, and speaking events, shares parenting stories to help build positive, values-based families around the world. www.yourpassporttoparenting.com https://www.instagram.com/holbrookjo/ (https://www.instagram.com/holbrookjo/) Your Passport To Parenting -https://www.facebook.com/yourpassporttoparenting/ (https://www.facebook.com/yourpassporttoparenting/) About the Host:  Nellie Harden is a wife of 20+ years, mom to 4 teen/tween daughters, dreamer, adventurer, servant, multipreneur, forever student, and a devoted teacher, but her ride-or-die passion is her work as a Family Life Coach & Mentor.   Coming from a career background in marine mammal sciences, behavioral work, and a host of big life experiences, both great and not some not so great, she decided that designing a life of purpose and freedom was how she and her husband, along with their 4 daughters, wanted to live.   Her work and passions exist in the realms of family and parent mentorship because she believes that a family filled with creativity, fun, laughter, challenge, adventure, problem-solving, hugs, good food, and learning can not only change a person's life but is the best chance at positively changing the world.  She helps families build Self-Led Discipline™ & Leadership Into their homes, set their children up for a wildly successful life on their terms, and elevates the family experience with big joy, palpable peace, and everyday growth!

Friendship is tricky and can be difficult at any age. Today we have created this interesting duality of “know yourself, express yourself, put yourself out there” AND simultaneously, weirdly enough, as we have become more respectful of self, we have become less respectful of others in many ways which make us want to hide.  The result is not putting our real selves out there, so people are making friends with a person that isn't even you sometimes. In this episode I dive into: So how does your child find a friend? How does your child keep a friend? What are some warning signs for your child and you as a parent? How can we set them up for a lifetime of being able to make, identify and grow friendships?  About the Host:  Nellie Harden is a wife of 20+ years, mom to 4 teen/tween daughters, dreamer, adventurer, servant, multipreneur, forever student, and a devoted teacher, but her ride-or-die passion is her work as a Family Life Coach & Mentor.   Coming from a career background in marine mammal sciences, behavioral work, and a host of big life experiences, both great and not some not so great, she decided that designing a life of purpose and freedom was how she and her husband, along with their 4 daughters, wanted to live.     Her work and passions exist in the realms of family and parent mentorship because she believes that a family filled with creativity, fun, laughter, challenge, adventure, problem-solving, hugs, good food, and learning can not only change a person's life but is the best chance at positively changing the world.    She helps families build Self-Led Discipline™ & Leadership Into their homes, set their children up for a wildly successful life on their terms, and elevates the family experience with big joy, palpable peace, and everyday growth!   With a lifelong passion and curiosity in thought, choice, behavior, and growth she has found incredible joy in helping families shift perspective, find answers, and a path forward.   (Nellie has been coaching families for over 10 years and has degrees in Biology, Animal Behavior, and Psychology. )     LINKS: 6570 Family Challenge- https://www.nellieharden.com/challenge (https://www.nellieharden.com/challenge) Website- https://www.nellieharden.com/ (https://www.nellieharden.com) Online Community- https://www.facebook.com/groups/the6570project (https://www.facebook.com/groups/the6570project) Instagram- https://www.instagram.com/nellieharden/ (https://www.instagram.com/nellieharden/)     Facebook- https://www.facebook.com/nellie.harden/ (https://www.facebook.com/nellie.harden/) Thanks for listening!
