In this episode, parenting coach Vanessa Walter and I discuss why it is essential to form a connection to yourself before forming one with your child, why parenting at this point in time is uniquely challenging, and 3 steps you can use in a difficult moment with your child, no matter their age. Vanessa is offering online parenting courses on Tuesdays beginning November 5, 2019 - December 3, 2019. See her website in the show notes below for more information.
