Fan Favorite: Teaching body boundaries w/ Mary Van Geffen
Nina and Mary talk about body image, family dynamics, and setting boundaries during the holidays. They share personal stories and offer practical tips on empowering kids to understand their bodies, handle family expectations, and communicate about private parts. They also highlight the importance of unified parenting, open communication, and preparing children for social situations, while stressing how adult conversations can shape a child’s self-esteem and body image.
Mary Van Geffen is an international parenting coach and parent educator for overwhelmed moms of strong-willed & Spicy Children™. She teaches monthly workshops to help moms gain confidence to choose gentle, respectful parenting especially if they weren’t raised that way. Mary has a ministry on Instagram where she posts an inspiring parenting tip every single day. Just reading her social media will help you delight in your child and remember that you are enough. Mary believes that when a mom realizes how hard she is on herself and cracks the door open for some self-compassion, her entire family is bathed in light! Mary is a certified Simplicity Parenting Counselor® and Professional Co-Active Coach®. Her greatest achievement, however, is cultivating a calm, kind, and firm relationship with her spirited go-getter daughter (17), polar-opposite introverted son (15) and un-Enneagramable hubby.
