ALL THE FUN!!! 🤣

Something that also tends to creep up around this time is (drum roll please)....

You guessed it, your trauma!! Having a history of trauma, chronic stress, adversity or struggling with your mental health while simultaneously having to be a parent can be a real sh*t storm at a minimum. Compound that with holiday madness - it’s enough to put you over the edge.
​

We want to help with preventing just that!!!

​

As parents we often don’t realize the way trauma can insidiously creep into our relationships with our children causing an added bonus of stress and overwhelm.

​

Whether you want to admit it or not, parents and caregivers are notorious for projecting their sh*t onto the children we raise (teachers, we see you do it too!) — and it’s ok... because without the awareness of it, how would any of us know any better? Awareness is often the first step to healing, change and transformation.
​

One of the biggest challenges with being a parent (or caregiver) and having a history of trauma is we often muddle the dynamic between adult and child. Meaning as a parent or caregiver we don’t know where we end and they begin emotionally and energetically– this alone is a breeding ground for codependency and anxiety ridden exchanges.
​

Trauma Parenting often looks like:​
​

• Worried about your children all the time or obsessed with ideas that something bad might happen to them.
• Lots of anxiety just in general when it comes to your kids
• Feeling triggered.... a lot
• Feeling regularly stressed, overwhelmed or perhaps have thoughts on repeat like: “I’m just not cut out for this.”
• Feeling the constant need to control anything and everything aka overbearing
• on the flip side, feeling detached from your child(ren) because being too close feels too triggering.
• Always feeling guilty 🤦🏻‍♀️
• Trying really hard to be your kid’s best friend and not their parent
• Endless power dynamics and emotional breakdowns

​

If you’re reading this and it sounds way too familiar, you’re not alone. All it means is that you might have some work to do and you can thank your kids for showing you the places that still need healing.
​

We often want to give our children the world but the most undeniable, best gift we can give to our kids is a parent who is actively working on themselves, course correcting and demonstrating self-care by prioritizing their own mental health above anything else.

​

This is where we’ve got you covered. Just in time for the holiday mayhem we're offering our Nurtured Heart Approach masterclass, Transforming the Intense Child and Becoming A More Awesome You, for free!! It will offer you immediate insight and practical support on what you can start doing right now to shift up your parent/child relationship in a way that is simple and sustainable.
