This component of parenting is ESSENTIAL and so hard when no one demonstrated how to do it for us. We need to understand the nervous system and how to coach our kids through their emotional experiences so they can develop brain patterns for regulation and empathy. We also do this with Inner Child Healing work too because we are filling the gaps in what we didn't receive. If you're struggling with this you can set up a free call at bit.ly/callsami or visit www.sureparenting.com for more support.

Sunshine Boatright will share a bit of her story and how to find harmony and the middle ground when you're tempted to pendulum swing too far in the name of breaking generational curses. She is a great example of self-advocacy, advocacy for our children, and advocacy for other parents breaking the cycle!

We all have emotions we struggle to manage sometimes and the older we get the more shame we carry that we still struggle! This is one part of the process that I've found profoundly helpful and given me a sense of peace and groundedness. I share them here with you to encourage you to process your overwhelming feelings and uncover the messages they are trying to deliver. Feelings are fine. We can even learn from them. If you're feeling overwhelmed and need support in this endeavor, set up a free call to see what I might be able to do to help.  https://lindsaybraman.com/emotion-sensation-feeling-wheel/

This mom is concerned that her 4 year old will look down on feminine things and women in general because of his loud clear dislike of "girl things" now at 4. In this episode we explore what is typical development for a 4 year old and and helpful ways to ensure self advocacy, tolerance for different preferences, an expansion of nuance and perspective as this kiddo gets older. As per usual, it starts with us, the grown ups in his life and requires calm confident leadership and modeling.

Sometimes I hear people say that their trauma is what made them strong and I vehemently disagree. Responsive respectful parenting is NOT making weak children or weak adults. This video gives several examples of how, when, and why SURE Parenting creates resilience, persistence, and a problem-solving mentality.

Grief is a complicated, multi-variable, every changing process of lots of emotions. There's no wrong or right way to experience grief and it's normal if the holidays create extra sessions of grief for you. You're not broken, you're not alone, you're not expected to be "over it already." I see you, I hear you, I believe you. You're doing better than you think, and you've got this.
