When Parenting Styles Differ

What happens when parenting approaches differ? How do our own unconscious patterns influence our ability to show up grounded and focused when things get tricky? How much variance in parenting styles is "normal," and how can those differences be navigated as a team? Listen in this week as we explore these questions and more. Topics covered include:

• How our own unconsciuous energy and issues often come up under the pressures of parenting
• How unhelpful patterns and processes can pull us, and/or our partners, away from our plans
• The power of self-compassion as an entry to better connecting
• Asking for a "re-do" when we don't show up as our best self in conflict
• Dad Tip #27 - Fathers Don't Mother
• Big Idea #10 - Be Attentive, Be Calm, Be Competent (in that order!)
• Shared agreements and bouncing forward
