As women, we often make parenting seem effortless, but it's not, not at all. There are things in our lives that we want to change and improve, maybe your co-parenting or how you show up as a mom. Perhaps you want to hit certain goals in your income, in your life, or in your health. I help people just like you implement change and growth in your life.Where do I begin? How do I start creating change?We hear more and more about the way we believe, how we think, and our mindset. It already often feels challenging to begin implementing change, and there becomes the question of what's the best way to approach it. There are many ways to approach implementing change, and you have to find the best option for you.Four Important Aspects of Implementing ChangeMindsetThe way we think about our lives creates our experiences. If we believe that we are not capable of doing a great job of raising our kids on our own, we will struggle more because we have that belief. The way we think about our life matters. We all have experiences. Our brain turns these experiences into thoughts that seem to be absolute beliefs that become mindsets. It just happens. Mindset is just one of the ways you can implement change. Making shifts in how we think, not in a rose-colored glasses way, but in ways that truly serve you and help you experience more ease in your life.Awareness and attending to emotional needsBeing aware of your emotion set or the go-to emotions that you often experience. Understanding our go-to emotions sometimes allows a starting point for implementing change and cultivating a new emotion set that will feel and serve you better.Being Aware of Your Nervous System ResponsesOur nervous system can have some pretty big responses at times. It's important to be aware of what your nervous system activation looks like. You may have some triggering experiences, and you immediately feel heightened when something happens. There is emotion there, but it is more of a triggered response where things in your body feel somewhat out of your control or very automatic. Being aware of these moments will give us a better opportunity to work towards processing these emotions.Mikki GardnerMikki is a certified life coach who helps women become loving, strong, effective co-parents and create a life full of resilience, abundance and joy after divorce.Mikki's WebsiteListen to the Original Episode HereAccess full show notes and all links

Imagine this scene: You're shopping in Target with one child pulling on your leg and the other grabbing random items off the shelves, wailing, “PLEEEEASE Mommy can I have this?” An elderly woman in the same aisle smiles at you and says, “You're going to miss this, dear! The days are long but the years are short!” Or imagine that you buy a parenting book about a discipline approach that your sister-in-law raves about, but when you try it at home it just makes you feel uneasy. But it's all you're seeing on your Instagram ads and hearing about from your mom friends, so you decide just to push through, even though it's making you miserable. Whether unrealistic expectations are placed on us by well-meaning people, or we place them on ourselves due to our own childhood experiences, it is something that constantly plagues us with self-doubt. Am I doing enough? Am I doing this right? On today's episode, I'm talking with Danielle Bettmann, parenting coach at Parenting Wholeheartedly and the host of the Failing Motherhood Podcast, about how we can declutter these unrealistic expectations and have confidence in our parenting again. Danielle is a positive-Discipline certified parenting coach who empowers parents to crack the code of their strong-willed child's personality, meet their deepest core needs to improve their behavior, and find new levels of patience. An early childhood educator, certified teacher and home visitor, Danielle now equips parents from all over via Zoom! Instead of inadvertently inviting defiance by using traditional tools or playing "whack-a-mole" with short-sighted reactions, families get on the same page and learn how to cultivate cooperation while being KIND + FIRM at the same time! Host of the well-loved podcast, Failing Motherhood, she's passionate about eliminating shame from parents' vocabulary, reminding them they are the parent their kids need. She is also a mom to two daughters, wife of 15 years to her high-school sweetheart, and an avid fan of sunshine and coffee. Resources Mentioned: Connect with Danielle on her website, her podcast, and Instagram. I would highly recommend her FREE Calm + Confident masterclass where you'll learn  how to master the KIND + FIRM approach that your strong-willed child needs without crushing their spirit or walking on eggshells.

“Every mom has the power to create a beautiful harmonious environment for her children, regardless of what the other parent is doing.” –Mikki GardnerCalmer co-parenting? Yes, please! Mikki Gardner is dedicated to helping moms co-parent confidently and well. You're not going to agree 100% of the time, but you can co-parent calmly whether you are married, divorced, separated, or working with grandparents or others. Whether you're deciding to leave a marriage, you've already left a marriage, or you're in a marriage, there's a lot in this conversation for you.Mikki believes that when moms do the work to protect their wellbeing, to cultivate their own calmness, and to reclaim the freedom that they are really after, it helps not only them, but those around them. Part of that is being responsible, not reactive.Her three step process for that is awareness, agency, and aligned action. It's a simple process, but not easy. We talk through what it looks like to actually do it with kids or partners or exes and the other triggers life throws our way.We talk about: Pausing to take a breath and figure out what's really going onThe real options—to accept, change, or leave things—when we think we have no choiceGetting out of the nasty-gram cycleNoticing what being triggered or activated feels like in your bodyThe benefits and shadow side of people pleasingMaking decisions from a grounded place within yourself—you already knowABOUT MIKKIMikki Gardner is a certified life and conscious parenting coach. Driven by her own struggles of overcoming divorce, Mikki helps moms move past the divorce drama and conflict to become calm, confident co-parents, even without their ex's participation. Mikki is the host of Co-Parenting with Confidence and the author of The People Pleasers Guide to Co-Parenting Well.LINKSmikkigardner.comInstagram @mikkigardnerDOABLE CHANGESAt the end of every episode, we share three doable changes, so you can take what you've heard and put it into action. Change comes from action. Doable changes are things that you can add into your life, one at a time to make micro shifts and really create a ripple effect that will create a big change over time. Choose one that really piques your interest and roll with it. Here are three Doable Changes from this conversation:NOTICE WHAT BEING TRIGGERED FEELS LIKE. Get back in touch with your body. We experience being triggered or activated in different ways. When you know what it feels like in your body, you can use that sign to help you learn to respond instead of reacting. The first step, this doable change is simply noticing how it feels and trying to recognize.PAUSE AND BREATHE. Reaction may not take you where you want to go. Pause and breathe. Take time to assess what's really happening. (It's often not the first thing you jump to.) Then choose how you want to respond.ACCEPT, CHANGE, OR LEAVE. Next time you feel like you have no choice in a situation, use these options. Can you accept the situation? Can you change it? Can you leave it?

Whether in business or in parenting, relationships can be a tension-fueled balance between operating as peacemaker and operating peacefully. Of course, operating peacefully is always the desired status. But how do you achieve and maintain that status when other people make it difficult? To explore this deeply impactful topic, I interviewed Mikki Gardner, Certified Life + Conscious Parenting Coach and bestselling author of The People Pleaser's Guide to Co-Parenting Well. Along with a bit about her new book, Mikki shared her 3 main concepts around creating calm and how they can apply both to parenting and to coaching. “We have the opportunity to really step in and decide: ‘How do I want to do this? How do I want to show up grounded, confident, clear?'... ‘How can I be the creator of my own peace?' because the ripple-effect from that is massive… [I] have the power to create a very harmonious environment.” – Mikki Gardner What You'll Learn Broadening the definition of co-parenting When and where the work begins 3 concepts around creating calm Unhooking drama to become aware Shifting into choice Living action or inaction Agency: accept, change or leave Healthy people pleasing Connect with Mikki Gardner Mikki Gardner is a Certified Life + Conscious Parenting Coach, a mom, speaker, host of the Co-Parenting with Confidence Podcast, and bestselling author of The People Pleaser's Guide to Co-Parenting Well.

In this episode, I sat down to talk with Mikki Gardner, author of the book The People Pleasers Guide to Co-Parenting Well. Mikki is a certified life, and conscious parenting coach committed to walking alongside moms post-divorce and separation. She wants to help moms parent their children in a calm, clear, and confident way regardless of what their co-parent is or is not doing. She uses tools and strategies to navigate this process that come from her own personal experiences. Mikki firmly believes that every parent has the opportunity to create a harmonious environment for their child. What we go over with Mikki: Moving out of the role as a fix-it parent and being able to sit in your own discomfort when it comes to challenges.Using the 3 A's (Awareness, Agency, and Aligned Action) to help put a stop to the blame game when dealing with an ex. Stepping out of reactivity and stepping into response-ability to settle in and learn how to deal with feeling triggered. Not “should-ing” the situation to avoid assumptions or expectations from ourselves or others including our kids and co-parents.How to reframe our beliefs that our way is the right way to do things, especially in the context of co-parenting. The focus of many co-parents on what they have to do in comparison to what their co-parent does or does not do and shifting to what you want your home and relationship with your children to look like. Recognizing patterns to create a plan for a more peaceful co-parenting. Realizing divorce has a grief process attached to it that requires compassion, time, and reflection. Ways to calm your nervous system down in times of heightened stress or conflict. How over- or under-functioning can occur because of a lack of trust in ourselves and how to build back that confidence in ourselves. You can find Mikki on Instagram -  https://www.instagram.com/mikkigardnerAnd on her website https://www.mikkigardner.com/You can also check out her podcast, Co-Parenting With Confidence: https://www.mikkigardner.com/podcastFor more insight into parenting in today's world, be sure to subscribe to my Substack: https://www.albiona.substack.comAnd be sure to follow me on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@theparentingreframe and Instagram https://www.instagram.com/theparentingreframe for more parenting tips and advice.

Settling a divorce isn't the end of dealing with your ex-partner, especially when you have kids. Certified Life + Conscious Parenting Coach Mikki Gardner guides parents like you to navigate the drama of co-parenting by being aligned with your values, setting boundaries, and focusing on what you can control. Remember, you get to be the captain of your ship. You have the power to figure out what your co-parenting relationship looks like. Tune in to this episode on How To Co-Parent With A New Partner In The Picture with Mikki Gardner Key points covered in this episode:  ✔️ Guide your kids through the co-parenting relationship. They quickly learn what they see, so be an example of integrity to them. It's going to be hard, but they'll benefit from you living a joy-filled, stress-free life. ✔️ Move from a place of self-awareness and “response-ability”. You have full control over outcomes by being mindful of your responses. Stay clear on your values, and only partake in conversations that align with them. ✔️ Allow everyone to have their own feelings and experiences. You don't need to fix everything. Understand your place, and respect the rules of your co-parent's household.  ✔️ Be open to your ex's new partner. Fighting against it will only hurt you. What matters is that they genuinely love and care for your ex and your kids. You are on the same team. ✔️ The person you divorced isn't the same person today. People grow, learn, and change. Learn how to compartmentalize and focus on your life. They need to see you save yourself. ✔️ Show up the way you want to be treated. It's easy to be passive-aggressive. But taking initiative is the best way to set the tone of what you want the co-parenting relationship to look like.

On this week's episode of Doing Divorce Different, Mikki Gardner joins the podcast to talk about breaking the cycle and navigating toxic communication in co-parenting relationships. Mikki provides some insightful tips around working through toxic co-parenting, how to stay in control of your own emotions, and reduce the triggers that may be experienced from an ex spouse. She talks about how to navigate different parenting styles and how to stay true to your values and vision of parenting. Tune in today for this incredible episode packed full of useful nuggets.  In this episode: [02:00] Mikki shares her story of how she got into the work she is doing. [08:08] What does Mikki's family structure look like now? [09:48] How does Mikki recommend people work through toxic co-parenting? [13:48] What does Mikki do with conscious co-parenting? [16:25] How can people respond rather than react? [22:20] How can you navigate different parenting styles? Key Takeaways:  Parenting is not about the child. Parenting is about the parent, co-parenting is no different. Don't lose sight of what's important, which is the child. Keep your kid centered, don't pull them back and forth between the parents. When you are feeling reactive or triggered, pause and step back and realize that you do not have to respond right away. Determine what it is you are seeking and what you want to do before you respond.  You get to be in charge of your home, what you believe, and how you parent, but you also have to allow the other co-parent to do the same in their household.  Quotes:  “And after a lot of trying and a lot of things, I came to the realization that I was the example to my son of what it looked like to be a woman, to be a wife, to be a mom, to be a sister, all the things. But, was I being an example of a woman and a wife and a mom that I would want him to use as his standard? And the answer overwhelmingly was no. And so in that moment I understood that I had to go a different direction, and I had no idea what that looked like.” - Mikki Gardner “You always have a choice, but as long as you are reacting to your triggers, you are in a state of survival. You're not in a state of making calm, rational decisions. So first and foremost, we have to learn when we're triggered, how to calm ourselves down so that we can make good choices.” - Mikki Gardner “The first thing I do with each of my clients is create a vision for their life. This is so important because we can't continue to live in a reactionary state just doing what we don't want. We have to create a destination, a lighthouse of sorts that tells us where we want to go because the storm is gonna come. The night is gonna be dark. We're not gonna be able to see our way, so we need to have that sort of lighthouse vision of where we're going.” Mikki Gardner Guest Bio:  Mikki Gardner is a certified life coach through the Life Coach School and trained to help women sort out the overwhelm, confusion, fear, and self-doubt they feel after divorce.  She is certified in the Conscious Parenting Method as well as Applied Positive Psychology where she is trained to help moms move past their limiting beliefs, unravel the patterns of their past and become strong, effective, loving parents.  Resources:  Mikki Gardner Mikki Gardner Instagram Lesa Koski Website Lesa's Online Courses The Onward app was made for divorced parents to help track, share, and split their children's expenses.

E0064: Inside Divorce with Mikki Gardner by Inside Divorce

Conscious co-parenting coach Mikki Gardner joins Mandy to discuss finding the right mindset to create new holiday traditions after divorce.

When we coach from a business perspective, it can seem logical and right to focus on business strategy, systems, marketing… the nuts and bolts of business… But what if your true mission is to help heal others? To touch the intangible things in order to move forward the tangible things?  This is the genius zone in which Certified Business Strategy coach Kim Job found herself in when she began the vulnerable and painful process of healing from her broken past. Her brain is naturally wired to business solutions but her heart needed healing. In this episode, Kim opens up about herself and her cherished work, Soul Stories. She wants people to realize and deeply grasp this truth: You may have been broken but you don't have to remain so. She believes you can be healed and that nothing needs to hold you back. “It's true that trauma changes your brain but healing does too.'... I think I thought that I had to manage life with my broken brain… [But] maybe I don't. Maybe I can heal this.” – Kim Job What You'll Learn  Plan to what quiets your brain Determination and grit Healing your brain Opening yourself to Soul Stories You don't have to go digging Pushing yourself to be vulnerable Pick 3 Staying true to your mission Connect with Kim Job Kim Job is a Certified Business Strategy coach who specializes in business and marketing strategy.   She began her coaching career working as an Executive at The Life Coach School, and played a major part in their multi-million dollar growth. As the founder of several online businesses herself, plus seeing behind the scenes of hundreds of coaching businesses, she knows what works and loves giving her clients a shortcut to success.  Kim believes that business strategy is not one size fits all.

The impact a coach can have on Moms as they navigate motherhood cannot be overstated. And the Mom niche in coaching has some unique challenges. Moms are often the ones to minimize themselves and the load they carry. They don't tend to ask for help or seek support. On the flip side, those moms that don't minimize themselves, and do ask for help, tend to feel as though they should have guilt for not fitting the norm. We absolutely need to flip this dynamic! That's why I'm excited to have with me for this episode Conscious Parenting Coach, Mikki Gardner. We are both on a mission to empower women. It is our goal for Moms to feel validated regarding getting support, honored as an example of a powerful woman and leader, and embraced for the exceeding value of parenting well. Imagine with us a world where moms are not judged as they currently are but rather are proud and filled with confidence. This is our vision. And to all those who join us in this important Mom space work, I thank you. “If this is what is in your heart to do, it's there because this is what you're supposed to do… And it is needed more now than, honestly, I believe it ever has been… We have got to change that paradigm and giving it [motherhood] the importance that we all know that it has.” – Mikki Gardner What You'll Learn Big, fancy, shiny Stop the message Personal changes Struggle to charge and viability of niche Multiple options Step into yourself Tangible quick wins Validate women Connect with Mikki Gardner Mikki Gardner is a certified Life + Conscious Parenting Coach.

In this episode, Andrea is interviewed by Life Coach Mikki Gardner about how to put emotion aside and show up as the kind of parent you want to be after infidelity. This will be useful wherever you are on your journey. When emotions are running high, it can be very difficult to think clearly, especially when it comes to parenting our children. You want what is best for them, but we also may be in “survival mode,” not really seeing the big picture. This episode will help you navigate the rocky terrain of co-parenting when emotions are high and help you make decisions that you will be proud of. Listen to the three points Andrea shares that serve as powerful reminders of what is possible for you. Mikki is the host of the Co-Parenting with Confidence Podcast and has a private one-on-one coaching practice, where she helps moms ditch the conflict and frustration of divorce and become a strong, loving, confident co-parent.

In today's episode, I interview some of the mentors from The Coaching Collective. Each has her own coaching business and shares a bit of her own unique coaching style and coaching members in the Collective. Mentors in The Coaching Collective meet one-on-one with Collective clients. They connect, support, help them get unstuck and come alongside as members work through challenges in their businesses. I absolutely love the variety of vibes and styles and approaches and find this to be so valuable. I hope hearing a bit of their perspectives will instill confidence in you that differing personalities all can succeed in the coaching space.
