In this episode, we're talking about one of the most powerful tools you already have but probably aren't using enough: redeciding.Redeciding is the moment you pause, question the default, and choose again—on purpose. It's how you reinvent yourself, your parenting, your routines, and your reactions… without blowing up your whole life.I share a few recent moments that pushed me to look at my old stories (like “I'm bad at tech” or “I can't learn new things”) and what changed when I stopped believing them. This is the work we do in CMP: noticing the patterns that keep us stuck and choosing something better.In this episode:Why you're allowed to start over anytimeHow tiny decisions create massive reinventionThe stories we inherit—and how to let them goWhat to do when you feel stuck in old parenting habitsHow to redesign your relationship with each childWhy failures are evidence of growth, not proof of inadequacyYou're not stuck. You're just one redecision away from a different outcome.Let's make the last two months of the year the best ones yet.Go connect with your kids. And let's reinvent together.

How to Bounce Back from a Bad Day & Have an Instant Glow-UpYou know the week I'm talking about, your car breaks down, you spill coffee on your outfit, you're overworked, exhausted, and everything that could go wrong, does. It feels like the universe is punishing you. But what if it's not against you at all? What if it's actually preparing you for your next level?In today's episode, we're diving deep into how to bounce back from a bad day, bad week, or full-on flop era and turn it into your comeback era. We'll talk about:- Why bad weeks often feel like a domino effect (and the science behind it) - The power of positive thinking- Self-care strategies backed by psychology to help you reset- Coping mechanisms that actually work when you're spiraling- How to protect your energy and not let a flop era undo your progress - The power of the Lucky Girl Syndrome mindset (and how to activate it again) - Why after the biggest crash-outs always comes the biggest glow-upsIf you've been feeling unlucky, overwhelmed, or just burnt out lately — this episode will help you reframe it all, see the hidden blessings, and start your bounce-back era stronger than ever. The universe isn't against you, babe… it's testing you, refining you, and preparing you for your next chapter.Your comeback starts now.

The people who transform their lives? They're not smarter than you. They're not more motivated. They're not reading more books or listening to more podcasts.They're the ones showing up every single week to get coached on their real life.Here's what I've discovered after seven years of teaching Connect Method Parenting: you can understand every concept I teach and still find yourself yelling when your kid won't put their shoes on Tuesday morning.There's this massive gap between knowing what to do and being able to do it in the moment when you're triggered.What closes that gap isn't more information. It's the weekly rhythm of learning something, watching it get applied to someone else's situation, then trying it in your own life. That's it. Learning, repetition, application.That's why I'm doing Pivot Live, eight weeks where we meet every Wednesday at 1 PM Eastern starting November 16th. Small group. Cameras on. You're committing to show up.You'll mess up Monday morning. You'll bring it to our call Wednesday. We'll work through it together. And Thursday you'll handle it differently.If you're new to CMP, you'll go through the Pivot week by week with the group. If you've already done it, come as a repeater and just bring whatever you're working on.The details: $199 for 8 weeks | First lesson November 16th, first call November 19th | Register at https://cmp.works/pivotIn the next episode, I'll break down the actual CMP concepts we'll be diving into.Learn more here --> https://connectmethodparenting.comNext Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

In this episode, we unpack the Tucker Kraft ACL news to zoom out on what “typical” return timelines really look like, even for pros with round-the-clock resources. We walk through why nine months remains a common benchmark across elite sport, then break down new research suggesting earlier returns can be safe when strict, objective criteria are met. You'll hear what those criteria look like in a world-class, highly supervised setting, plus the key limitations that matter for real-world athletes like those of you reading this and listening to this episode. We close with practical takeaways: why biology, physical preparedness, individualized guidance and programming, and objective testing, not calendar dates, should drive your green light back to performance.https://www.packersnews.com/story/sports/nfl/packers/2025/11/03/packers-tucker-kraft-return-recovery-torn-acl-injury/87071490007/https://bjsm.bmj.com/content/59/9/667Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

Fake it till you make it is BS. There's a better solution and this is it.My IG: https://www.instagram.com/jamesbrackiniv/

This episode is one I've been wanting to do for a while because thought work is truly the foundation of everything we do in Connect Method Parenting. And I know "thought work" might sound intimidating or like some woo-woo concept, but I promise you—it's the most practical, life-changing tool you can have as a parent.The biggest problem isn't that we go into fight or flight. Nope...it's that we never come OUT of fight or flight. And that's exactly what thought work helps us change.I'm sharing my entire 15+ year journey of discovering thought work—from stumbling on Viktor Frankl and Byron Katie as a young, struggling mom to building the STEER tool and Daily Peace process that thousands of parents now use every day.Here's what we cover:What thought work actually is (and why it's not just "thinking positive thoughts")How I reverse-engineered my Baby Powder Blizzard miracle momentThe science behind why thought work works: mirror neurons, neural pathways, and the nervous systemWhy who you're BEING matters infinitely more than what you're DOINGHow thoughts create emotions, emotions fuel actions, and actions create your resultsThe power of becoming the "watcher" of your own lifeHow to use thought work even when (especially when) you're triggered by your teenagerYou can read every parenting book, memorize all the scripts, and understand child development backwards and forwards, but if you don't understand how to align who you're BEING with the highest, most loving version of yourself, you're still going to struggle.I'm sharing stories from a family trip, where I had to excuse myself from the room to do my own Daily Peace process. Because guess what? There's always another level of emotional maturity we can reach as parents. This work never stops, and that's actually beautiful.One of my favorite insights from this episode:"The more I think I need to hurry, the more I need to slow down. If I don't feel like I have time for thought work, that's exactly when I know I really need it."Key Takeaways:✨ Thoughts are OPTIONAL—you get to decide what you believe ✨ Your nervous system is broadcasting an emotional frequency that your kids pick up on (thank you, mirror neurons) ✨ Thought work isn't about perfection—it's about awareness and compassion ✨ When you witness yourself without judgment, everything changes ✨ The goal isn't to always be regulated; it's to become skilled at repairing when you're notTools I Mention:STEAR - My signature thought awareness toolDaily PEACE - The complete process that includes STEER plus emotional processingThe Six Acceptance Questions - From Chapter 3 of my bookBottom line: This is THE most important skill you can develop as a parent. Once you understand how your thoughts create your emotions, which fuel your actions, which create your results... you'll never see parenting (or life) the same way again.If this episode resonated with you, please leave a review!

Today we're talking about what it really means to guide your child through big emotions. Not fix them. Not rush them. Just guide them.Think of yourself as the traffic director for your child's emotions. You're not trying to stop the traffic. You're not trying to control it. You're there to help it move safely in the right direction.In this episode, we'll talk about:Why your child's emotions aren't problems to solveHow to know when to help them change the situation or when to help them change themselvesWhat it looks like to move your child toward courage, caution, or tearsHow to stay connected while they move through frustration, alarm, and pursuitYou'll see how acting as a traffic director builds emotional resilience, deepens attachment, and keeps you calm in the middle of the chaos.Grab your notebook ('cause you're gonna want to jot some things down), and let's talk about how to lead with connection when big emotions show up.Learn more here --> https://connectmethodparenting.comNext Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

In this episode, we unpack why “you're cleared—just ease into it” isn't a plan. Using an ACLer's real check-in, I break down the dimmer-switch approach to fear and confidence: gradually dosing exposure so sport feels less scary week by week. You'll learn how to separate medical clearance from true readiness, map your return with participation → sport → performance phases, and manipulate levers like intensity, minutes, contact, reactivity, player numbers, and/or terrain. If you want a practical path back—one that respects psychology as much as physical—this one gives you the framework.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

Today we are talking about one of my favorite topics ever, the roots of attachment.Nature's answer to separation is not independence. It is connection. Deep, steady, invisible roots that help our kids and us hold on even when we are apart.In this episode, I talk about the six layers of attachment that Dr. Gordon Neufeld describes, from the first root of the senses all the way down to being fully known and loved for who we are.We talk about:How attachment deepens each year of a child's lifeWhy separation feels so hard and what to do about itHow to strengthen connection when your child pulls awayWhat it means to experience separateness without losing togethernessThink of this one like a gardening episode for the heart. We are learning how to care for the roots that keep us connected no matter the distance.Grab your tea, take a breath, and let's dig in. Learn more here --> https://connectmethodparenting.comNext Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

In this week's episode I chat to Tassy about her planned c-section. She conceived quickly after coming off the pill and Tassy really enjoyed being pregnant and learning about birth. At 32 weeks her midwife flagged concerns around her baby's small size and after accepting some additional growth scans she quickly realised the birth centre birth she had hoped for was becoming increasingly unlikely. Tassy shares how empowering it felt to choose a caesarean over the induction she was being recommended and how ultimately it felt like a really special and positive way to birth her baby. This is such a lovely example of the value of education in making informed choices and I know you're going to love hearing Tassy's story.   Tassy's IG: https://www.instagram.com/the_littlegrape/  Little Grape: https://thelittlegrape.co.uk   My website: www.serenalouth.com My IG: https://www.instagram.com/serenalouth/

We talk a lot about emotions, regulation, and connection—but underneath all of it is belief. What we believe about ourselves, our kids, and what's possible determines everything that follows.In this episode, I dive into the discipline of belief—the conscious, daily practice of choosing thoughts that align with who you're becoming instead of who you've been. We'll talk about why your nervous system clings to old stories, how to rewire it with kindness, and what it really takes to believe something new when nothing around you has changed yet.This isn't about pretending. It's about practice. Because belief is a muscle, and when you train it intentionally, your entire reality starts to shift—your parenting, your peace, your sense of possibility.By the end, you'll know exactly how to:Identify the beliefs keeping you stuckCreate new ones that actually feel truePractice them until they become your default stateIt's time to stop waiting for proof. This is The Discipline of Belief.Learn more here --> https://connectmethodparenting.comNext Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

In this episode, we dig into seven must-know considerations for strength testing in ACL rehab—from why your first test is rarely the full story, to how pain can cap output, to the nitty-gritty of setup, padding, and eliminating compensations. You'll learn how to test in a series (not a one-off), how to progressively earn high outputs, and why every score is a data point, not a verdict.

What if it's actually where our strength grows?In this episode, I talk about how being hard on yourself never helps, how to see your weak spots with kindness, and why loving all parts of you makes you a calmer, happier parent.You'll learn how to:Stop beating yourself up when you mess upSee your weakness as a teacherFeel strong even when you don't feel perfectThis one is soft, honest, and real.

If attachment (or togetherness) is the ultimate need, then facing separation is the ultimate threat. Wild, right?In this episode, I'm diving into what that really means, why connection is the invisible gravity holding us (and our kids) together, and how the brain's built-in systems for pursuit, alarm, and frustration kick in anytime that togetherness feels shaky.We're talking meltdowns, clinginess, people-pleasing, all of it, through a totally new lens. You'll start seeing that what looks like “bad behavior” is usually just a brilliant little human trying to feel safe again.Once you get this, parenting gets a whole lot clearer (and calmer). Connection stops being something you do and becomes who you are.Ready to go deeper with Connect Method Parenting?

In this episode, we dive into one of the most overlooked mistakes ACL athletes make in their strength training — undershooting effort. We share a real example from an athlete who realized she'd been training too light and matching her stronger leg to her weaker ACL side. Through this story, we unpack why treating each leg as its own individual is critical, how to use anchoring sets and RPE to find your true limits, and why “two half-full tires” don't equal full recovery. This episode is all about learning how to push harder, smarter, and confidently — so you can stop guessing and start rebuilding real strength.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

This is one of my favorite topics to teach: the powerful emotional journey from mad to sad. In this episode, I talk about what Dr. Gordon Neufeld calls the path of adaptation, the incredible shift from frustration and resistance to sadness and surrender.I'll walk you through the “traffic circle” of big emotions, how our brains look for exits when things don't go our way, and why the second exit, the one where we change ourselves instead of the situation, is where emotional growth actually happens.We'll also talk about how to create the conditions for this kind of growth in our homes. What helps our kids and us feel safe enough to move through futility and into maturity? And why crying, real sad tears, is one of the most healing things we can do.If you've ever wondered how to help your child handle disappointment, rejection, or just plain “no,” this episode will help you see those moments as doorways to growth, not breakdowns to fix.Ready to go deeper with Connect Method Parenting?

Parenting isn't tidy. It's muddy, unpredictable, and sometimes really uncomfortable. In this episode, I'm talking about what it means to come alongside your child, especially when their choices, emotions, or beliefs stretch you in ways you didn't expect.We'll explore how to stay close when everything in you wants to pull away, how to listen with curiosity instead of control, and how to build a relationship that can hold steady through the chaos, confusion, and change that come with raising growing humans.Because real connection isn't built in the easy moments. It's built in the mess.

In this episode, we tackle a widespread problem in the ACL rehab space: the drop-off in support and structure between the early stages and mid-late stages. We unpack why this happens—from insurance visit limits to gaps in clinic skillsets and facilities—and how this gray zone aka "the gap" leaves ACLers feeling uncertain, unsupported, and stuck. More importantly, we outline a practical 3-question audit (testing, planning, and expert guidance) to assess whether you're truly on track or flying blind. Whether you're an athlete navigating rehab or a clinician trying to level up your care, this is a must-listen episode that calls out the standard and shows how we can do better.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

What if everything you've been doing to become a better parent has been backwards?In this raw, real episode, I share a powerful revelation from my kitchen reorganization weekend (and a real-time call from my sick daughter) that changes everything about how we approach parenting goals.You'll discover why your to-do lists and behavior strategies keep falling short—and the inside-out approach that actually creates lasting change.The Do-Have-Be Trap:The exhausting cycle of trying to prove you're a good mom through productivityWhy "if I just get the routine right, THEN I'll be patient" never worksThe moment I realized the equation was completely backwardsWhat BE Goals Actually Are:Goals that don't depend on your life being perfectStarting from identity instead of behaviorWho you're BEING while cleaning the kitchen, when nobody notices, when your kids don't listenThe 4-Step Assumption Method:Step 1 - I AM It Claim your new identity NOW. "I am a calm, connected parent." Your nervous system listens to every "I am" statement you make.Step 2 - FEEL It Emotionally embody the state in your body. Your nervous system responds to emotions, not words. Spend 2-3 minutes feeling how you'd feel if this identity were already true.Step 3 - REVISE It Reimagine past moments that contradict your new identity.

In this episode, we dive into a very common issue many ACLers are unknowingly dealing with - junk volume. It's something that is preventing progress. If you've ever felt stuck, having a swollen or painful knee, or just burnt out from doing too much—this one's for you. We explain why piling on exercises, reps, and sets without clear purpose isn't helping (and might be hurting), and share real stories of athletes doing 10-20+ exercises a day and seeing zero progress. You'll learn how to shift to a less-is-more mindset, apply principles like minimum effective dose and the 80/20 rule, and embrace the high/low training model used in elite performance. Backed by research and experience, this episode is your call to simplify, audit, and do your ACL rehab with intention.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

What does it mean to be a compassionate alpha as a parent? It's not about being harsh or domineering, and it's not about being passive or permissive either. It's about finding that steady, sturdy ground between strength and warmth.In this episode, I unpack the term Compassionate Alpha (learned from Dr. Gordon Neufeld) and share why kids need a parent who can lead with both firmness and kindness. You'll hear why being “too soft” spikes a child's anxiety, why being “too hard” erodes trust, and how calm, confident leadership creates the safety kids need in order to just be kids.We'll explore:What a compassionate alpha parent really looks like in actionWhy connection must come before correctionHow sturdy leadership calms a child's nervous systemThe dangers of swinging to either extreme — passive or authoritarianPractical ways to embody calm, kind authority (even when you mess up)When you step into this role, your child can rest. They don't have to take charge. They don't have to fight for your attention or protection. They know you've got them. And that's the soil where trust, maturity, and deep connection grow.Tune in to learn how to lead with confidence and compassion — sturdy and kind, the way your kids need you most.Ready to go deeper with Connect Method Parenting?

Most parenting advice skips straight to tactics: new charts, new scripts, new strategies. And for a while, they might work. But if you've ever thought, “Why did I yell again? Why did I get so frustrated even though I promised I wouldn't?”—you've bumped into the truth: behavior is downstream of being.In this episode of the Connect Method Parenting Podcast, I'll show you why strategies only work as well as the state you bring to them. Change doesn't last because you tried harder—it lasts because you shifted who you're being.We'll dig into the Be → Do → Have sequence, why identity and attachment are the true foundation of change, and how to practice tiny reps that rewire your nervous system for calm, confident, connected parenting.You'll learn:Why focusing on “being” changes everything downstream.How your identity (the story you run when you're not thinking) drives your reactions.What the parenting pyramid reveals about environment, behavior, skills, beliefs, identity, and attachment.The “Notice, Normalize, Next Step” practice to interrupt shame spirals.How to collect micro-evidence that reinforces the parent you're becoming.This isn't about stacking more strategies. It's about shifting your state so the strategies you already know land. When you choose to be first, the doing gets lighter, and the having flows naturally.Join me for the No Yell Workshop, a 2-hour live class where you'll learn the real reason parents yell and walk away with a customized plan to stop.

In this episode, we wrap up a powerful 3-part series diving into what happens inside the operating room during ACL surgery—and how it directly impacts everything that follows in rehab. I share final takeaways after shadowing a respected orthopedic surgeon, offering clinical pearls you won't find in textbooks. From the surprisingly vascular nature of the torn ACL to the nuanced realities of graft fixation and proprioception loss, this episode connects the surgical process with real-world rehab challenges. You'll also hear a raw and honest reflection on why re-injuries are so common in youth athletes—especially females—and what we need to do better. If you've ever wondered what actually happens under the knife, or why your rehab feels the way it does, this one's for you.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.

Most of us don't realize it, but we slip into getting attention from our kids — measuring our worth by their cooperation, moods, or so-called “good behavior.” When they listen, help out, or show up happy, we feel validated. When they resist, melt down, or push back, we question ourselves. In this episode, Andee unpacks the crucial difference between getting attention and giving it — the kind of steady, present, high-quality connection that doesn't depend on how kids are acting.You'll hear why kids can instantly sense the difference, how approval-seeking often traces back to childhood safety strategies, and why social media's “likes and views” energy mirrors the same neediness we sometimes carry into parenting. Andee shares vivid analogies — from an actor's “Action!” cue to the power of high-speed internet — that reveal what real presence feels like to a child. She also tells a personal story of pausing her own plans to help her daughter process emotions and write an essay, showing what it looks like to choose connection over schedule.Along the way, you'll discover how to expand your capacity to feel any emotion so nothing feels too scary, why one-way attention (think Taylor Swift fans) still matters in parenting, and how to pivot when kids interrupt without slipping into resentment or agenda-driven energy. The message is clear: when you stop needing your child's behavior to validate you, you show up steadier, more compassionate, and more influential in their lives.If this resonates with you, share the episode with a friend, and don't forget to leave a quick review. It helps more parents find the encouragement to trade correction for connection.Join me for the No Yell Workshop, a 2-hour live class where you'll learn the real reason parents yell and walk away with a customized plan to stop.

Today's vibe: totally different—and kind of wild. I pressed a little “Create audio summary” button inside NotebookLM (after loading my CMP book + Pivot material), and it generated a 20-minute conversation distilling Connect Method Parenting using only my sources. I listened and thought: ok, parents ask me for this kind of quick, clear overview all the time…so I'm sharing it with you as a bonus episode.You'll hear:The core pain point from thousands of parent notes: “I hate yelling. It feels like it's the only thing that works.” (Oof. I've been there.)Why connection, not louder consequences—is the lever (think: attachment is the fuel line).The 4 CMP mindset pillars:Gardener > SculptorYou, Not Them (extreme ownership without self-blame)Behavior = Feedback (curiosity over judgment)Compassionate Alpha (strong & kind leadership)The self-regulation tools you can use today:STEAR (spot the split-second thought that drives the blow-up)PEACE (pause, download the thoughts, allow the feelings → mad-to-sad shift)The connection builders: six minutes that matter, 1:1 child-led time (aka “no teaching allowed”).Handling conflict without losing closeness:The Circle of Big Emotions (three exits for frustration)The Seen & Heard “sandwich”: See → (Set/Play/Pivot) → BridgeWhy this is a marathon, not a magic wand—and why small, consistent reps change everything.Why share an AI episode?

In this part 2 of the 3-part podcast episode series, we dive into my OR experience with an orthopedic surgeon to uncover the real-world nuances of ACL surgery. From patellar tendon grafts vs. quad tendons, to the impact of graft harvest sites and overlooked donor site rehab, this conversation reveals the “unseen” elements that can make or break ACL recovery. You'll hear candid insights on graft placement, nerve sensitivity, and the decisions surgeons make that aren't always driven by what's billable—but by what's best for the patient.

Today I'm sharing a live workshops where we dive deep into the very first step of Seen and Heard, the "See" part. And not just seeing the behavior or the chaos or the mess (because let's be honest, our brains love to laser focus on the problem), but actually SEEING our kids. The humans behind the big emotions. What You'll Learn: The Stop, Drop & Roll Technique - Yes, just like fire safety, but for parenting fires! When your kid's brain goes haywire and your nervous system starts screaming "EMERGENCY!", this is your go-to move. STOP: See the other person (not the problem)DROP: Don't react, observe patientlyROLL: Relax, open, listen, learnWhy Your "No" is Actually a Gift - Mind blown yet? When your child's thinking has gone offline and they're in full unreasonable mode, your gentle but firm limit becomes the focal point for all that nameless tension they've been carrying. It's like giving them permission to let it ALL out safely. The Tear Catcher Approach - I start this episode with the most beautiful poem by John Roede. It'sl about what happens when we stop trying to fix and start being present with someone's pain. Questions to Ask Yourself:Does my child need information or help?Does the task match my child's current ability today?Am I feeling drained and making everything about me?Is this behavior genuinely unreasonable, or am I just triggered?Visual Learners: If you want to see the Seen and Heard diagram I reference, head to page 155 in my book Connect Method Parenting (you can get it on Amazon). The Stop, Drop & Roll visual is on page 165. You can grab the Kindle version for like a dollar if you want to follow along!Next Steps: Practice just the "See" part this week. Before you set any limit, before you give any direction, just practice seeing your child as a human having a hard time instead of a problem to be solved. Trust me, this changes everything. xoxoAndeeps- If you could take 30 seconds to leave a review, that would mean the world to me. It's how more parents find this work and start choosing connection over correction.Join me for the No Yell Workshop, a 2-hour live class where you'll learn the real reason parents yell and walk away with a customized plan to stop.

Limits That Feel Like Love — Discipline Without the DramaDiscipline doesn't have to be about power struggles, lectures, or bribes. In fact, when it's done right, it actually feels like love.In this episode, I'm breaking down why setting firm limits is one of the most loving things we can do for our kids—and how to do it without all the drama. We'll talk about:Why “no” can be a gift (yep, even when your kid is melting down)The difference between control and connectionHow to hold firm without getting pulled into the chaosPractical tools (like Stop, Drop, and Roll) you can use the next time things go sidewaysThink of this as a reframe on discipline: not punishment, not permissiveness, but loving guidance that helps our kids feel safe, seen, and supported.So if you're tired of yelling, threats, or the endless negotiating, this one's for you.Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

What if I told you that the secret to becoming an unshakeable parent isn't getting your kids to behave better, it's learning to live in complete acceptance of however they show up?! Would you believe me???Today, we're diving deep into what might be the most radical parenting mindset shift you'll ever make. We're talking about living in acceptance instead of resistance, and why this might just be the wildest flex you can pull as a parent. What You'll Discover The Manual Revolution: Why those invisible rule books you've written for your kids (without them knowing) are keeping you stuck in emotional chaos—and how to burn them for good. Conscious vs. Unconscious Rules: The game-changing difference between setting healthy boundaries and emotionally blackmailing your children into compliance. The Want vs. Need Framework: How to make requests of your kids without tying your emotional wellbeing to whether they follow through (spoiler: this changes everything). Emotional Independence: Why taking 100% responsibility for your feelings—regardless of your child's behavior—is the ultimate power move. Key Takeaways Your kids don't have to listen to you—you have to earn that right by creating a relationship where they want to listenYou can't control anyone else, and trying to manage your child's behavior to feel better will always backfireLiving in acceptance means staying emotionally regulated no matter what shenanigans your kids are pullingConscious limit-setting comes from a place of service, not from needing your kids to behave so you feel like a good parentThe fastest way to improve your child's behavior is to stop making their behavior about you "There is nothing you have to do and no one has to do anything for you. When we think that someone else's behavior controls our emotions, we're setting ourselves up to not only feel bad, but to feel powerless." Living in acceptance isn't about becoming a pushover parent who lets their kids run wild. It's about becoming so emotionally solid and sturdy that you can set firm, loving limits without your nervous system going haywire when your kids push back. That's the wildest flex of all.Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

Andy gives you permission to let people not like you and shows you why this is the key to actually liking yourself more. What You'll Learn:Why giving people permission to dislike you is liberatingThe real reason you're desperate to be liked (it's about how you think you'll feel)How to stop being "creepy, needy, and graspy" when someone pulls awayWhy some people won't like your "flavor" and why that's normalHow to model authentic confidence for your kids (especially teenagers)Key Takeaways:"They can't like you enough to make up for you not liking yourself.""Having the courage to be disliked is empowering and makes you more confident.""If someone doesn't like you, maybe you're just not their flavor, and that's okay."Perfect For:Parents who want their teenagers to like themExhausted people-pleasers ready to break the cycleAnyone who's changed themselves to fit inParents wanting to model authentic confidenceThe Bottom Line: Being likable is overrated.

One daughter felt annoyed, my husband felt compassion (because he knows someone who got nerve damage from jackhammer work), and others were pretty neutral about the whole thing. Same situation. Totally different emotional experiences. This is unconditional love in action, people. What You'll Learn In This Episode: The Michelle Moment: Years ago, my friend Michelle asked the question that changed everything: "So when you say unconditional love, you mean love WITHOUT conditions, right?" (Thank you, Michelle, for getting clarity on that life-changing concept!) The Cinnamon Roll Effect: You know how my mom's homemade cinnamon rolls would make everyone congregate in the kitchen? That's the kind of magnetic energy we want to put out as parents - unconditional love so strong our kids can practically smell it. Why We Sabotage Our Own Happiness: We actually choose NOT to feel love sometimes. Wild, right? We decide our kids "don't deserve" our love when they're acting up. But plot twist - you're the only one who experiences your emotions. When you withhold love, you're literally punishing yourself. The Gym Analogy That'll Blow Your Mind: My daughter's friend Grace has been crushing it at the gym for a year. People literally stop her to comment on her transformation. Meanwhile, my body reflects "a mom of six who likes chocolate." Both are totally valid! But it shows we all have untapped capacity - including for unconditional love. The Behavioralism Trap: We've been taught that love is a reward and anger is a consequence. But real change happens from the inside out, and the only way to help your child's heart soften is to create an environment where their nervous system feels safe. The Truth Bomb Section: Your child's behavior cannot make you stay frustrated (even though it feels like it can)Love is available to you 24/7, regardless of what anyone else is doingYou can love someone deeply and still set firm boundariesThe emotion of love benefits YOU first - it's basically the ultimate gift you give yourselfMy Challenge For You: Pick someone in your life who's challenging to love right now. Write down all the conditions you're putting on loving them. Then ask yourself: "What would it feel like to love them no matter what, all the time?" Try it with yourself. What would unconditional love toward yourself look like? The Random Love Experiment: Next time you're out and about, try what I call "random love" (yes, I need a better name for this). Look at strangers and think "I love you" in your head. It sounds weird, feels amazing, and sends more love out into the world. What's not to love about that?  "How we treat ourselves in private is how we will treat others in public."Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista

In this episode, we break down a rarely talked-about but crucial concept in ACL rehab: familiarization with strength testing. From isometric quad tests to full testing protocols, we talk through how unfamiliarity with machines, cues, and even the environment can drastically skew test results—often underestimating an athlete's true capacity. I share personal experiences, common clinical pitfalls, and real-world athlete examples to highlight why repeated exposure, consistent setup, and managing expectations can make all the difference in generating accurate data. Whether you're an athlete or clinician, this is a must-listen if you're relying on testing to guide decisions in ACL rehab.Ways we can connect:My IG: www.instagram.com/ravipatel.dptOur website: www.theaclathlete.comEmail: ravi@theaclathlete.com_________________Submit a topic or a question you'd like me to answer.Check out our website and tons of free ACL resourcesSign up for The ACL Athlete - VALUE Newsletter (an exclusive newsletter packed with value - ACL advice, go-to exercises, ACL research reviews, athlete wins, frameworks we use, mindset coaching, blog articles, podcast episodes, and pre-launch access to some exciting projects we have lined up)1-on-1 Remote ACL Coaching - A clear plan.
