Podcasts about empowered parenting

This week, Chief Joy Officer, Faith Guy, is joined by dedicated parenting coach and good friend, Jodi Slein! Jodi brings a unique perspective to her coaching with her personal experience with her three sons, one of which is adopted. Faith and Jodi speak all about parenting, emotional intelligence and regulation, and the benefits of learning self-awareness to become a better person and parent!Takeaways:✅ Parent from the Inside Out – Jody explains that empowered parenting starts with self-awareness. Understanding your own childhood, attachment style, and triggers helps you parent more intentionally and effectively.✅ Regulation is the Game Changer – Emotional regulation is a foundational skill in parenting. Jody emphasizes that parents must learn to regulate themselves first in order to teach their kids how to do the same — especially in high-emotion moments.✅ Empowered Parenting is Not Passive – Setting firm boundaries with empathy and consistency creates a respectful relationship — not one based on fear or control. Empowered parenting requires patience, presence, and purpose.✅ Repair Builds Trust – When mistakes happen (and they will), it's the repair that matters most. Jody shares how owning her mistakes and apologizing helped deepen connection and build mutual respect with her kids.✅ Connection Over Perfection – Building lasting influence starts with prioritizing connection. Jody's story shows that when children feel emotionally safe and valued, communication and trust naturally follow.Check out Jodi's Coaching: https://alwayshopemindfulgrowth.com/Sign up for an AMP trip: https://centerforvictory.kartra.com/page/9Gn85

Too often we think of infant needs being met as only needing to be fed and changed. The needs of infants goes beyond the practical things we do to keep them nourished, clean and physically safe.

Tune in on Tuesday, Dec. 21st when Susan chats with Certified Sleep Specialist and Doula, Marcella DeRosa about the sleep rhythms of infants and empowering parents to follow their natural parenting instincts.

Raw & Real with Dr Lisa  A few shows ago I talked about breaking free from your family's beliefs. I'm going to look now at how parenting can be a great contribution to growing up to become an Empowered adult. When I was growing up, I didn't have a choice. My mother would choose my outfits, my food, and she would do my homework. She even chose the college she thought was best for me. And when the professor in college grabbed me by the wrist and asked me “Lisa, are you OK?” I realized that was the first time in my life someone wanted to know how I was. I'm so grateful for her. Parenting can be tricky. Have your parents told you “you will get it when you have your own kids”? And did you say something like “I would never do this to my child!”? Are you choosing something different now or repeating their behavior? Join me to release the old patterns and start creating the empowered parent you truly are.

The Adult Chair® model is based on different stages of life and development, with our Adult Chair coming online around age 25 when the brain fully develops.   So, what does that mean for raising healthy kids? Is it possible as a parent to teach your kids the Adult Chair while they're still literally in their Child or Adolescent phase of life?   YES!!!   No matter what age your child is, you can start modeling what it looks like to be a healthy adult. You can begin to be that touchstone of emotional health that they look to through all their different life experiences.   In this episode, I break down what it looks like to be a healthy adult (how you want to be showing up as a parent) and six keys for modeling The Adult Chair for your children. This is a very practical episode that makes this process simple while leaving room for lots of grace when you and your children inevitably act like the humans you are!   Listen to discover:   Eight qualities for living in our Adult Chair  How we can invite others to join us in our Adult Chair Six ways to model The Adult Chair for your children Why lots of grace is a parenting essential    Remember, The Adult Chair is a model – a touchstone we strive for – and we're not going to live in it in every moment. Instead, it shows us when we're off balance and gives us something to reach for. That's true for you in your parenting journey and true for your kids in their growing up journey.  But by doing your work and showing them what a healthy adult looks like, you're already putting them light years ahead on the path to becoming their healthiest, most authentic selves. And what an amazing gift that is to give!    “97% of the time we're incorrect with our stories.” - Michelle Chalfant “Healthy adults respond to people and don't blow up and react when we're triggered.” - Michelle Chalfant   “We seek to know what we're feeling and then we get curious about what's going on inside.” - Michelle Chalfant   “Whether you have a toddler or you have an adult child, start today. Because your kids are always going to be looking at you, and there's always a chance to respect you and grow and learn from you.” - Michelle Chalfant   “We reach for vices when we don't know what to do with our internal pain.” - Michelle Chalfant   “They become what they witness in the household.” - Michelle Chalfant   LINKS & RESOURCES    Episode #177: Empowered Parenting with Meghan Crough https://theadultchair.com/podcasts/177    Episode #276: Raising Teens from The Adult Chair® with Dr. Pam Staples https://theadultchair.com/podcasts/276/   The Adult Chair® Membership September Theme: “I'm a self-care badass!” https://theadultchair.com/membership/    P&G Hair Food https://hairfood.com/  Or find at Amazon, Target or Walmart   MORE ADULT CHAIR   The Adult Chair® Website https://theadultchair.com     The Adult Chair® Membership https://theadultchair.com/membership/   The Adult Chair® Workshop  https://theadultchair.com/events/   The Adult Chair® Coaching Certification https://theadultchair.com/certification   TAC Circles® https://theadultchair.com/taccircles/ STAY CONNECTED   Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/michelle.chalfant   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/MichelleChalfantFanPage/   The Adult Chair® Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theadultchair/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/Michellechalfant

What is the PEACE Process? It's a five-step framework to replace disciplinary strategies of power over or power under parenting. With the PEACE Process, you no longer need strategies to achieve harmony in your home like threats or fear based obedience. This process takes practice, but it provides you with a map to handle any parent-child scenario. Watch this episode live on Facebook!

Many parents unknowingly use fear as a parenting technique, subconsciously embedded from their own upbringing. When we can identify our past relationship to fear, we can see where fear is present in our own parenting today. From there, we can move forward consciously to a fear-free parenting paradigm,which will prime our children to navigate the unknown future world with courage. Join Susan as she chats with Mindful Parenting Coach Danielle Murphy Faris about the historical cycle of fear based parenting. Catch it live on Facebook!

For many parents who are invested in strengthening their mindset, and expanding their toolbox, they forget two other main components: the hands, and the heart! Join me as I chat with Rebecca Lyddon, Director of Education at the Jai Institute for Parenting and the founder of Family Unearthed as we discuss not only the mindset aspect of parenting peacefully, but also the physiology, emotional intelligence and secure attachment.

In this episode, you'll learn: How one mother's complications during motherhood empowered her to take a stand for medical freedom The benefits of a more natural approach to wellness  Why it always severs you to do your research  Why Kristina thinks it's necessary to speak up for the kids that don't have a voice/choice What it means to be a conscious vaccinator Today you no longer have an option- if you aren't jabbed, you can't participate in life/school. When being authentically you, you arrive that much closer to the people who "get you." How the system failed her (She never wanted to be "anti" anything- and still isn't!) Your children eat what you feed them. How being mindful of your health is detrimental to that of your child. You have options and choices for your desired doctor, birth, and vaccine plan. The benefit to midwives  Natural alternatives CAN and DO work. Find your tribe. The support you seek is out there. Arm yourself with the tools and the knowledge to take care of your family   Interested in learning more about our guest, Kristina Fisher?
