Summary

Do you know what it really means to be a conscious parent? On today's episode I welcome Katherine Sellery, a 3x TEDx speaker, who has taught thousands of parents the Conscious Parenting Revolution to help them raise resilient, considerate, centered and empowered kids who know their inner voice and honor it. We discuss what it means to be a conscious parent. Being a conscious parent requires us to dive deep into our insecurities as parents, how we approach discipline, and the high expectations we place on our children and ourselves. It's about being more aware of ourselves so we can better parent our children and meet their emotional needs. Listen in as we discuss what it means to be a conscious parent, how we can create boundaries, but still allow our child's inner voice to be head, how to find a balance between praise and acknowledgment, and so much more!
