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.

Today I'm announcing something that has me SO EXCITED - The No Yell Summer Implementation Experience --> https://cmp.works/implementIn this episode, I'm sharing:✨ Why having a perfect parenting plan isn't enough (and what you actually need to create lasting change)✨ The truth about why we revert to yelling even when we know better - and how to rewire those reactive patterns for good✨ What makes the Implementation Experience different from every other parenting program you've tried✨ How 8 weeks of support can transform not just your summer, but your entire family legacy✨ Real talk about the investment (financially and emotionally) and why this work is worth every penny and every momentHere's what you need to know:You know that gap between the parent you want to be and the parent you are on your hardest days? That's exactly what we're closing this summer. The No Yell Summer Implementation Experience takes you from having beautiful intentions to actually living them out - even when your toddler is melting down in Target or your teenager is pushing every button you have.This isn't just about stopping yelling (though that's a beautiful side effect). This is about becoming emotionally regulated from the inside out, healing your own childhood wounds, and raising children who feel truly seen and valued.What's included:Full 8-Week Parent Pivot 12 weeks of LIVE coaching calls with me Private community in the CMP App for daily supportYour copy of the Connect Method Parenting bookAll replays and resources in your private podcast feedTwo important notes:If you're in League, you already got the No Yell Summer Workshop free - this is your next step to actually LIVE what you learnedHaven't done the workshop yet? You can still get the NO YELL Summer Workshop and join us!The bottom line: Information without implementation is just inspiration. You can have the most beautiful parenting plan in the world, but without support, without accountability, without someone walking alongside you - those plans stay pretty ideas instead of becoming your lived reality.Your children are waiting for the parent you're becoming. Let's become her together.Ready to transform your summer and your family?

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.

Sometimes it is really is right in front of us, but we don't see it because we aren't looking for it. This can be blessings, opportunities, the "silver lining" in a difficult situation, the list goes on... What you're looking for is what you'll find, and yet we can train ourselves (or be trained) to look at what others are doing, what we DON'T have, and things like that in which we see the things that make us unhappy and yet we stay surprised that those are the things that we keep on getting... if we look for it, we'll see it, and we'll get it... call it the Law of Attraction, call it whatever you want. This episode is meant to touch on this subject and begin the process of changing how and what we look at and see in this life of ours. LISTEN to this one and begin the change NOW.

In this episode, we discuss a commonly overlooked benchmark in ACL rehab - your uninvolved side. While this leg has to take on the load early on, it can be a helpful proxy for a number of things in the ACL rehab process. What's important is that we have to be honest about what standards we're comparing it to to make sure we're not using a not-so-good standard. This episode highlights an important component ACLers are searching for - the "feel" and what's "normal" and being able to find some signal within all the noise in this ACL rehab 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.

Have we?In this episode, we trace the evolution of parenting science—from Skinner and Watson to Porges and Siegel—and explore why many of the most common strategies today (like timeouts) may be as outdated as smoking on an airplane.Inside the episode:
This episode accidentally turned out somewhat profound? ok, profound is a bit much, but it has an unintended deeper message. That we're all taking ourselves and life, a little bit tooo seriously. We're talking about things we cancelled but should bring back, from having some individuality, to eating proteinless pasta, to clubbing. Keep in touch ⭐️

In today's episode of the Connect Method Parenting Podcast, I'm diving headfirst into the messy, confusing, absolutely necessary world of figuring out what to tolerate in your relationships with your kids (and honestly, everyone else in your life). Because let's face it - we're all walking that tightrope between doormat and dictator DAILY.Here's what we're unpacking today:• The "Compassionate Alpha" approach - that magical middle ground between permissive pushover and authoritarian tyrant (spoiler alert: both extremes come from the same place of fear!)• My "Seen and Heard Sandwich" framework that starts with Connection and ends with Bridge - your step-by-step guide for handling everything from epic Target checkout meltdowns to homework battles• Why "accepting" your child's behavior is NOT the same as "condoning" it (say it with me, people!)• The traffic circle of frustration (thanks Dr. Neufeld!) and why our job isn't to punish the attacking energy but to help our kids move from mad to sad• My embarrassingly real Target story involving two toddlers, a public meltdown, and a stranger's birth control commentary (I literally abandoned my cart and fled)• The mind-blowing concept that "their behavior is information" - they're not trying to ruin your life, they're communicating something!Remember: You teach people how to treat you by what you tolerate. But tolerating your child's emotions doesn't mean letting go of boundaries - it means showing up with both compassion AND firmness.Whether you're dealing with eye-rolling teens or cookie-demanding toddlers, this episode is your permission slip to stop trying to "win" the power struggle and start winning the relationship instead.DM on IG @connectmethodparenting about YOUR tolerance dilemmas - I read every single one while contemplating whether I should have that last cookie in my fridge (Dollar Cookie Day, you are my weakness!).Stay boundaried but beautiful!xo AndeeNext Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast My Book: https://cmp.works/1xs My IG: https://cmp.works/ista
