As we near the end of 2025, I've been spending some time reflecting on how far I've come in my parenting, so...
In today’s episode, I’m sharing three quotes that genuinely changed the way I parent. Not in a dramatic, overnight way... more like those quiet little truths that settle in, speak to something real inside you, and slowly shift how you show up.
We talk about:
• Why gentleness is actually a form of strength, and how pairing peace with strength creates the kind of presence our kids trust.
• Why kids listen so much better after they feel listened to, and how this one shift can dissolve half the power struggles in your home.
• Why healing is an inside job, and why we can’t read, learn, or podcast our way out of the deeper work only we can do.
This episode is honest, reflective, and full of the real-life moments behind these ideas - the places I got stuck, the things I didn’t know I needed, and the ways these quotes rearranged me as both a parent and a person.
If you’ve been craving a little clarity, or just a reminder that growth is slow and beautiful and absolutely possible, I think this one will feel good!
