I'm diving deep into one of the biggest mindset shifts I've ever made as a parent: learning to accept my child's behavior without condoning it. We're unpacking Chapter 2 of my book—Control the Controllables—but I'm not just reading it. I'm bringing in fresh reflections, personal stories, and real-life coaching conversations to help you reclaim your peace, even when your child's behavior feels completely out of your hands. You'll hear how I used to believe controlling my kids was my job, and how focusing on what I actually could control changed everything from the tone in my home to my own sense of confidence and calm. If you've ever thought,“If I accept this behavior, won't it just continue?”“I've lost control, and I don't know how to get it back.”“I want to set limits and stay connected—can I do both?”This episode will meet you right where you are. Today I'm covering:Why controlling your child's behavior doesn't work, and what to do insteadWhat's actually in your control as a parent (way more than you think!)Why acceptance isn't the same as condoning—and how it helps you show up at your bestHow to stay grounded, even in high-conflict momentsThe six powerful questions that shift you out of judgment and into connectionThe Six Acceptance Questions Use these whenever you feel triggered, powerless, or judgmental. They'll help you shift from resistance to compassion—and from reactivity to leadership.How does what they did or said make perfect sense to them? (Step into their world. What might they be feeling or needing?)What do their words or actions tell me about them—not about me? (This isn't personal. It's a window into their internal world.)How does what I did or said make perfect sense to me? (Offer yourself compassion, too. Your reaction came from somewhere.)What would serve everyone's highest good right now? (Let this question guide your next move—grounded and connected.)What am I making this moment mean about me—or about them? (Reveal the story your brain is telling so you can question it.)Do I want to accept what just happened? If not, why? If yes, why? (This gives you permission to pause, reflect, and choose.) Before the day ends, take 5 minutes and:Make your “Controllables List:” Write down everything in your parenting world that you do have control over (your thoughts, tone, routines, boundaries, energy, etc.)Use the Acceptance Questions: Pick one moment that felt hard this week and walk through the six questions above.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 dive into the “bracing illusion” many ACL athletes face after surgery. We break down why relying on a locked brace can give a false sense of security around knee extension — and why zero degrees is not good enough. You'll learn why regaining hyperextension is crucial, the pitfalls of conservative post-op bracing protocols, and how to avoid the mistake that slows so many ACLers down. Whether you're fresh out of surgery, months into recovery, or a clinician guiding athletes, this conversation will change the way you think about post-op braces and knee extension 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.

In this episode, we talk about one of the most underrated but guaranteed parts of ACL rehab. Sh*t will happen.

I share my personal story of a recent setback, the emotional rollercoaster that followed, and how I navigated it using mindset and movement strategies.

Have you ever caught yourself waiting? Waiting to feel confident. Waiting for your kids to behave so you can feel calm. Waiting for the house to be clean so you can feel peace. I see you. I've been there, lying in bed, praying tomorrow would be different. That somehow I'd wake up and magically feel like the parent I wanted to be. Here's what I discovered after my baby powder blizzard moment 17 years ago: Those emotions we are waiting for? They're not coming in a specially wrapped package. What We're Exploring Together We can manufacture the emotions we want to feel. Not by forcing. Not by bypassing. But by understanding that we are the creators of our emotional experience. I promise this episode isn't about toxic positivity or pushing away negative feelings. It's about recognizing our power when we're ready to use it. The Five Truths That Set Us Free We're not supposed to feel happy all the time (and thank goodness for that)Every emotion belongs - they're all part of this messy, beautiful human experienceOur thoughts create the meaning - it's not the situation, it's our story about itWe need the contrast - without the hard, we can't appreciate the beautifulEmbracing negative emotions makes them less scary - resistance creates suffering, acceptance creates freedomThe Practice (Because Love Is a Verb) Creating emotions is about:Recognizing what you're feeling without judgmentDeciding how you want to feel (yes, you get to choose!)Finding thoughts you actually believe that support that feelingPracticing, practicing, practicing (like going to the gym for your heart) You are the author of your emotional experience. This Week's Loving Challenge What emotion do you want to create? Not someday. Not when things get easier. But right now, in the messy middle of your real life. Pick one. Maybe it's confidence. Maybe it's compassion. Maybe it's just plain old peace. Then ask yourself: What would I need to believe to feel this way?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 today's episode we're hearing about Jessi's two vastly different births. Her first - an induction that sent her into uterine hyperstimulation and was heavily influenced by covid restrictions. Her second - an empowering waterbirth in her living room with continuity of care from an amazing homebirth team. She shares how her first birth influenced the choices she made around her second, what a physiological labour was like in comparison to an induced one and how her postpartum healing differed after the two.

In this episode, we tackle one of the biggest issues plaguing ACL rehab today: athletes being left to “figure it out”. Just because you're cleared doesn't mean you're ready—and DIY-ing your own rehab using Instagram exercises or generic templates can cost you months or even years of progress. We dive into the complexity of ACL rehab, why social media is a minefield of misinformation, and how proper guidance—whether remote or in-person—is essential. We talk through powerful analogies, insights from real conversations with ACLers, and explain why even professionals shouldn't rehab themselves. If you've been piecing together your own workouts or feel lost after PT, this one's a must-listen.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 episode might make you ruffle your feathers. If it does, it means I'm hitting a nerve that needs to be hit. Here's what I'm NOT going to do:Pretend that your sticker charts are helpingAct like time-outs are teaching life lessonsTell you that you just need the "right" punishment systemHere's what I AM going to do: Call out the fact that we've been duped. Manipulated. Sold a lie by two dudes in lab coats who literally thought your child's brain works the same as a pigeon's. I'm not even kidding. BF Skinner actually said: "Give me a child and I'll shape him into anything." Your child. A blank slate. Just waiting to be programmed with the right combination of rewards and punishments. Feeling sick yet? You should be. I used to be you. Consequence Queen. Time-out Tyrant. The mom who had read all the books and had all the systems. And then one day, it hits me: I'm using the EXACT SAME METHODS on my kids that I use on my poodle. Sit = treat. Come = treat. Stop barking = treat. Clean room = sticker. Do homework = screen time. Stop fighting = avoid punishment. The kicker? My dog was better trained than my kids. At least she came when I called.

Welcome back to Andee Reads Between the Lines—the series where I read my book Connect Method Parenting out loud and pause to riff, reflect, and spill the real-time truths you won't find on the printed page.In this episode, we're kicking off Part One of the book—and we're not easing in. We're diving headfirst into the deep end of tradition, behavioralism, and the parenting frameworks we think are helping us... but actually aren't.Here's what's inside:
In this episode, we dive into what happens after a cyclops lesion is removed during ACL rehab. While many think it's a quick fix, we dive into why a thoughtful game plan is essential to avoid setbacks—especially with extension and quad activation. We cover why managing pain, swelling, and load is critical in those first few weeks, how to approach crutch use strategically, and why every athlete's response must be treated uniquely. With a proper post-op strategy, what feels like a setback can become a launchpad for major progress.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.

Okay friends, confession time: I'm sitting here in my black hoodie, glasses on, looking like I just rolled out of bed (because let's be real, I kinda did), and I'm about to do something that might be brilliant or might be totally chaotic. Plot twist: I'm rereading my entire book on the podcast and calling it the I Andee Reads Between The Lines Series. Like, live. With all my current thoughts. And possibly some tangents about how I'm thinking about CMP right now. Here's What Went Down: Started with that gorgeous John Roedel poem that makes me cry every. single. time. Then I dove into reading my book's intro and had to pause because my 17-year-old daughter gave me a card last night that said "I know I can talk to you about anything and you'll always listen" and NOW I'M CRYING AGAIN. (Sorry, I'll pull myself together. Maybe. Probably not.) The Big Takeaways: Corrective parenting = Playing slots in Vegas (you might win occasionally but you're definitely losing overall) Connect Method Parenting = Smart pension fund investment (boring metaphor but CONSISTENT GROWTH, baby!) You already have everything you need inside you (I'm not being woo-woo, I promise, I just know you're AMAZING!!!!) What's Coming Next:Part 1: Get Ready to Go Against Tradition (aka why everything you learned about parenting might be backwards)Part 2: Understanding Your Own Behavior (spoiler: it's not actually about the kids

Hey hey, friends! It's Andee, and today's episode is a little different—think of it like a sneak peek, a love note, and a call to reimagine how you parent—all wrapped into one.After a 5-hour IKEA run...someone please tell me why that place is both magical and exhausting. I decided to release this episode instead of what I had originally planned. I felt a tug to share this 10-minute excerpt from the Listening Lab workshop I taught earlier this week.Why? Because the feedback I got after teaching it made me stop in my tracks. This was a deep dive into the real, research-backed heart of Connect Method Parenting - attachment theory, emotional maturity, and how to lead with strength and softness.In this little preview, you'll hear why:Togetherness is more essential than food and water (for real—it's neuroscience, not fluff),Why you're a gardener, not a sculptor (so much freedom here!), andWhat it really means to choose closeness in the chaos (even when they're tantrum-ing at max volume).If you've ever wondered what's underneath the Connect Method Parenting approach—or why your child's behavior is more about connection than correction—this is your sign to listen in.And if this snippet resonates, the full workshop is packed with even more goodness.

In this episode, we explore one of the most misunderstood aspects of ACL rehab: setbacks. We dive deep into the non-linear nature of recovery and how regression doesn't mean failure and how reframing this makes a massive difference in this process. Drawing from personal coaching experience and thought leaders, we reframe setbacks and "missed milestones" as necessary adjustments rooted in readiness, not punishment. You'll learn why protocols based strictly on time can do more harm than good, how to recognize when an athlete simply isn't ready for a task, and why adaptive, individualized programming is essential. Whether you're an ACLer or a clinician, this episode will shift your mindset and equip you with a more realistic and empowering perspective for the ACL rehab journey.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.

Let's be real for a second… Tantrums are loud. Messy. Embarrassing. And if you're anything like me, they've probably made you question your entire parenting strategy more than once. But what if a meltdown isn't something to “fix” or “stop”? What if it's actually your child's nervous system waving a white flag saying, “This is too much—I need help.” In this episode, I'm breaking down the real reason behind tantrums, emotional outbursts, and “off-track” behavior—and how to show up with calm, confidence, and connection (instead of panic, bribes, or shame). Here's what we'll cover: Why your child's meltdown is NOT a parenting failure (yours or theirs)What's actually happening in your child's brain and body during a tantrumHow to respond without rushing in to fix, stop, or distractWhy frustration is a necessary part of emotional developmentA grocery store tantrum story that will make you feel instantly less alone

Hey hey!!!Let's rip the Band-Aid off: you're not exhausted because you're doing it wrong. You're exhausted because you've been sold a lie. A big one. In this episode, we're going all in on the hidden belief that keeps moms stuck in burnout:
Your kids have selective hearing, right? Like, they can hear a candy wrapper from three rooms away but somehow can't hear "please clean your room" when you're standing RIGHT THERE? Here's the thing nobody's telling you: The reason your kids won't listen has NOTHING to do with your volume, your consequences, or that fancy reward chart you spent 3 hours making on Pinterest. (I see you, crafty parent. I've been there. Mine had glitter. SO much glitter.) The real reason? Brace yourself... They don't feel heard. By YOU. I KNOW. I KNOW. Your brain just went "But Andee, I'M the one talking to a brick wall here!" Stay with me, this is where it gets good. In this game-changing episode, I'm spilling ALL the tea about: Why that mom who came to me with a grunting 14-year-old is now getting hour-long heart-to-hearts (no, really!)The mortifying moment my kid said "Mom, I just need you to listen" and changed EVERYTHINGThe backwards solution that sounds bananas but actually works (science says so!)How I went from Lecture Queen to Actually-My-Kids-Tell-Me-Stuff MomBut here's the kicker...When YOU master listening first? Your kids start WANTING to hear what you have to say. Like, voluntarily. Without bribes. Without threats. Without you turning into Scary Mommy Voice™. Wild, right?Quick story time: Remember when I told you about interrupting my kid after 18 seconds? (Eighteen! Seconds! The researchers weren't wrong, y'all.) Well, after implementing what I'm teaching in The Listening Lab, that same kid - now an adult, tells me EVERYTHING. The good, the bad, the "Mom, don't freak out but..."And I don't freak out.

In this episode, we dive into a powerful analogy—the undercooked vs. overcooked concept—to reframe how we approach loading and progression in ACL rehab. We emphasize the importance of starting conservatively to avoid unnecessary flare-ups that can derail recovery, especially in the early stages post-injury or surgery. You'll learn why “undercooking” is a safer and smarter strategy that still allows for consistent progress, how to read your body's response to training, and why psychological wins from easier starts matter. This episode is packed with practical strategies for athletes and clinicians alike to better manage load, symptoms, and long-term outcomes for 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.

More times than I can count. In today's episode, we're talking all about sibling rivalry, emotional outbursts, and how to respond in a way that actually helps—not just in the moment, but long-term. I'm breaking it down into three parts: The Foundation: Why connection is the real cure for conflict—and how sadness (yes, even those bedtime tears) is a sign that things are actually working.In the Moment: What to do when kids are fighting, melting down, or just generally acting like small emotional tornadoes. (Spoiler: Teaching a lesson mid-meltdown doesn't work. And it's okay. There's a better way.)After the Storm: How to revisit things after the emotions have settled and help your child grow their emotional muscles in ways that stick.I'll share stories from my own family (yes, including the time my kid knocked over the baby in a car seat

What do you do when the sticker charts work… but they don't feel right? In today's episode, I'm inviting you behind the scenes of a real coaching call with a brave, thoughtful CMP parent who's wrestling with something we all face: the tension between loving connection and firm limits—especially when it comes to bedtime, behavior charts, and consequences that seem to work (but don't sit well in your gut). We talk about what to do when your child comes out of their room twenty times after lights out, how to set firm limits without flipping into frustration or giving in, and why rewards and consequences often miss the mark (even when they look effective in the short term). If you've ever felt torn between being the calm, connected parent you want to be, and just wanting your kid to stay in their room already—this episode is for you. Inside, you'll hear us explore:How to hold boundaries from compassion instead of controlWhy developmental insight changes everything about "consequences"The sneaky ways we think we're doing “nothing” when we're actually doing the most important workA new lens for sticker charts, bedtime resistance, and behavior at schoolHow to be the “tuning fork” that helps your child feel safe and settle (even if you're tired and done)This is real-life parenting in action—messy, meaningful, and full of the kind of nuance that doesn't make the parenting books.

In this episode, we dive into the real-life case of a 14-year-old female athlete navigating a complex ACL rehab journey. From prehab through post-op frustrations, the story unpacks the common—but often overlooked—issue of a cyclops lesion, and the emotional, physical, and systemic challenges that come with it. You'll hear the importance of restoring full knee extension, the nuanced role of quads and graft types, and why trusting your gut (and advocating for yourself or your athletes) could be the key to unlocking progress. This is a must-listen for any ACLer or clinician who's hit a frustrating plateau and wonders, “Am I crazy, or is something actually wrong?”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.

Your kids have selective hearing, right? Like, they can hear a candy wrapper from three rooms away but somehow can't hear "please clean your room" when you're standing RIGHT THERE? Here's the thing nobody's telling you: The reason your kids won't listen has NOTHING to do with your volume, your consequences, or that fancy reward chart you spent 3 hours making on Pinterest. (I see you, crafty parent. I've been there. Mine had glitter. SO much glitter.) The real reason? Brace yourself... They don't feel heard. By YOU. I KNOW. I KNOW. Your brain just went "But Andee, I'M the one talking to a brick wall here!" Stay with me, this is where it gets good. In this game-changing episode, I'm spilling ALL the tea about: Why that mom who came to me with a grunting 14-year-old is now getting hour-long heart-to-hearts (no, really!)The mortifying moment my kid said "Mom, I just need you to listen" and changed EVERYTHINGThe backwards solution that sounds bananas but actually works (science says so!)How I went from Lecture Queen to Actually-My-Kids-Tell-Me-Stuff MomBut here's the kicker... When YOU master listening first? Your kids start WANTING to hear what you have to say. Like, voluntarily. Without bribes. Without threats. Without you turning into Scary Mommy Voice™. Wild, right? Quick story time: Remember when I told you about interrupting my kid after 18 seconds? (Eighteen! Seconds! The researchers weren't wrong, y'all.) Well, after implementing what I'm teaching in The Listening Lab, that same kid - now an adult, tells me EVERYTHING. The good, the bad, the "Mom, don't freak out but..." And I don't freak out. Because I learned The Thing. This workshop is your jam if:You've said "How many times do I have to tell you?!" in the last 24 hoursYour kids' eyes glaze over the second you open your mouthYou're SO over being the Nagging Parent™You're ready to try something that sounds backwards but actually worksWhat you're getting:One simple tool (just ONE! Because who has brain space for 47 steps?)90 minutes that'll change how you show up foreverMy "Three L Method"The secret to becoming the parent your kid WANTS to talk toThe deets:

In this episode, we break down a specific exercise—often a staple in early ACL rehab—isn't the universal must-do exercise it's made out to be. Speaking directly to both ACL athletes and clinicians, I'm sharing a candid conversation with an athlete feeling discouraged at four weeks post-op for not hitting this “milestone.” I unpack why this exercise can be problematic, especially for those with quad grafts, and emphasizing the need for tailored rehab strategies that prioritize principles over protocols. You'll learn when this movement may have value, but more importantly, why most ACLers are better off focusing elsewhere early on. It's a deep dive into one of ACL rehab's most over-prescribed exercises—with plenty of empathy, experience, and practical takeaways.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.

We're not talking about having a better routine or stricter chore charts (though hey, no shame if those help!).

Okay, story time. Day TWO in our brand-new Arizona house. 100+ degree heat outside. Moving boxes EVERYWHERE. And my boys? They decided this was the PERFECT moment for an indoor blanket ride across our hardwood floors.You know exactly where this is going, right?
In this episode, we discuss opportunity cost in ACL rehab. Every decision we make has an opportunity cost. Each week, I have people reach out with problems, questions, and concerns regarding their cases. I want to break down the realities of these conversations and what it has costed them (them being 13 different ACLers) based on poor guidance and waiting. In majority of cases, it's not their fault. It's a bigger issue - the system as a whole failed them. But, once they realize it's a problem, it's on them to make some moves. Otherwise, it costs them even more - finances, time, physical health, mental health, and so much more. I wanted to do this episode to pull back the curtain on the realities of what's quite common in this space. I hope that this allows you to take control of your own ACL rehab and process.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.

Oh heyyy there, fellow parent-people struggling through the beautiful chaos! In this episode, I spill ALL the tea about how that nasty little voice in your head (you know the one that's all "you're failing at this parenting gig") isn't just making YOU feel like garbage—it's actually rewiring your kid's emotional thermometer too!
