Be You Parenting with Mary Dravis-Parrish Most kids recognize they are different before we adults think they do. Whether a young person has ADHD, dyslexia, is on the autism spectrum or whatever else may make them “different”, they will likely figure out what sets them apart from the “crowd” pretty quickly. When parents know how to help their child cope and celebrate their difference, the child can once again feel good about who they are and how being different is more than okay, it’s magical. My guest, Maria Forrest, will be here to share what she has learned about helping kids who are different cope and how her work is dedicated to celebrating differences. Maria Forrest earned a master’s degree in Early Childhood while expecting twins and after teaching 100’s of spunky kindergartners. Her best credentials are raising four resourceful children, yet she’s made her share of mistakes. She has written four books related to children. Her role model is Mr. Rogers and his social impact with the Neighborhood.

Be You Parenting with Mary Dravis-Parrish Self-harm, like cutting, drugs, and alcohol are on the rise with today's youth as they struggle to express emotional pain freely and in a way that isn't harmful. Some of these children have thoughts of ending their lives out of emotional hopelessness, and some tragically do. How do we as parents help our children find ways of expressing those painful emotions in a way that doesn't do them harm? Do we know what to look for? What do we need to know so that our kids have some guardrails as they experiment and explore their feelings as to what is meaningful for them? Parents often fear expressions of emotions based on their own experiences and out of wanting to keep their kids safe they don't allow their kids to freely express what's inside. But what if we could guide our kids into genuine experience of the "negative" emotions and teach them how to choose the expression of those emotions more wisely? In doing so, we learn what is in their hearts, so that they have a strong desire to live a life of meaning that is real and true for them. What a joy to have Bill Protzmann back with us to share his personal experience with finding his way through his own emotional pain. He will share ideas that will empower parents to have tools to be able to guide their children through their emotions.  The article mentioned in the show that Bill wrote can be found here. http://www.practicalheartskills.com/why-suicide/ Bill Protzmann is an entrepreneur, musician, husband, father, and proud member of the human race.

Be You Parenting with Mary Dravis-Parrish Curiosity is an underrated quality in parenting. But as we grow older, we tend to push off that curiosity, instead filling it with a need to be right. As parents, we pressure ourselves to have all the answers when our children approach us with questions. We use our “rightness” to assume that we do know everything and that our kids don’t know anything and that there is no place for parental curiosity. This week, Mary will demonstrate how to use curiosity to create deeper bonds with children, build their confidence and discover a new ease to parenting. Learn the difference between a curious parent and a nosy parent.

Be You Parenting with Mary Dravis-Parrish When we are born, we are our own form of perfection. We are not prone to judge others, do bad things or need to prove our existence. Along the way, we receive an after-market add-on, an inner critic that can get out of control and become our inner terrorist. How many times have you heard your inner critic tell you all the things that you don’t do right? How often do you feel that you are constantly under attack? Being a parent is just one more role that your inner critic can barrage you with disabling thoughts and ideas. Don’t think for a second that you kids do not become affected in one way or another by your reaction to your inner critic. Our guest for this show, Aideen Finnola, knows the plight of living under the rule of the inner critic/terrorist and will share with us steps to effectively identify and remove the inner terrorist within. Aideen T. Finnola is an empowerment coach, author, speaker, and radio show host, In Pursuit of Truth on Inspired Choices Network. She is an unapologetic and empowered survivor of and thriver after physical, emotional, psychological, and religious abuse. As she was raised in a religious cult for the first two decades of her life and was then unsuspectingly married to a closeted gay man for her life’s next two decades, she has a lot of experience with varying degrees and expressions of untruth. These experiences have fueled her pursuit of truth to the point of a full-on passion (some might say obsession). Aideen has learned that above all, untruth is both unworkable and painful. Coming from the perspective that life, time and space, and the human experience are all perfect and good, she knows that truth can only exist within ideas and experiences that are both workable and enjoyable. Aideen coaches her clients to find their own truth by investigating outside the conventional parameters of “should and shouldn’t,” “good and bad,” and “right and wrong.” She guides them instead to evaluate their experiences by questioning “Is this working for me?” and “Am I enjoying this?” Aideen empowers people all over the world through her coaching, her memoir, My Exquisite Purple Life, her speaking, and her radio show. Her unwavering message is to look for truth, guidance, and answers within, because it’s all there inside!  aideen@aideentfinnola.com   https://www.aideentfinnola.com/ Purchase Aideen's book My Exquisite Purple Life at https://bit.ly/2S9VP5t or the audible version at https://www.audible.com/pd/B07KX7VLV3 Mary’s Book: Empowered Parents Empowering Kids Purchase on Amazon.com   Amazon.co.uk    Amazon.ca Barnes&Noble   Access Shop https://www.beyouparenting.com/ ~ More with Be You Parenting with Mary Dravis-Parrish ~ Would you like to live without the guilt, doubt, fear, worry, disrespect and frustration that many parents take on?

What if we danced our lives? What do I mean with that? How much fun and ease can we have in our lives? How much intensity would we allow ourselves to experience? How much elegance would we enjoy? What could change if we were in communion with others, with animals and plants, with the earth? What if nothing had significance? It is not that I know all or have answers to any of those questions above. I am curious, I like to explore, I will even jump if necessary in order to find out. Would you like to join me on that exploration? On this journey, I will use the tools of Access Consciousness®, the conversations we have and my love of looking at something from all different angles (what I jokingly call mental gymnastics.)
