Lessons in Growing a Family with Strong Values

Join me, Kori, on a journey through the twists and turns of parenting, where we explore the profound impact of our family values on our children's lives. In this session, I open up about a personal incident involving my son's last-minute decision to attend a school field trip and how it became an unexpected teaching moment. Listen in as I share how this experience brought to light the essential role of values like preparedness and resourcefulness, and why it's critical to consciously communicate and nurture these principles within our family unit. Discover the power of a simple exercise where each family member identifies their core values, helping to align our parenting goals and expectations, fostering an environment where our children can thrive.
This conversation also extends an appreciative nod to the importance of community in the parenting landscape. I reflect on the encouraging interactions with you, our listeners, and underscore the significance of shared experiences and mutual support. Hear how I invite you to continue engaging with me and our growing family of conscious parents on social media and through my website.

Mastering the Pause: Navigating Parenting Challenges with Composure and Consciousness

Ready to transform exasperation into empowerment? Step into the world of "Conscious Not Crazy,” where I, Kori draw from my dual roles as a parent and educator to help you navigate the tumultuous waters of parenting with grace. This episode is a goldmine for those battling with the power struggles that come with raising little humans. We're talking real strategies to maintain your cool, even when faced with the ultimate test of composure—your child's outburst.
Join me on a journey to master the art of the pause, a simple yet revolutionary act that can shift the dynamics of your family life. I'll share how detaching emotionally from your child's behavior is a game-changer and why understanding that their actions aren't always a reflection of you is crucial. It's not just about weathering the storm of disrespect; it's about rewriting the script of your reactions and fostering a conscious mindset. Tune in for heartfelt stories and practical advice that will equip you with the tools to step out of the cycle of reaction and into a space of mindful presence with your children.

Mastering the Art of Parenting from Tantrums to Teen Angst

Every parent has that moment—a public meltdown that leaves you frantically searching for the exit. My journey has shown me that understanding behavior is more than a quick fix; it's a deep exploration of the brain's complex interplay. In our latest conversation, we unravel the mystery behind those tiny outbursts and our own knee-jerk reactions. I share effective techniques to prevent your child's next tantrum, putting an end to supermarket embarrassments by engaging their cognitive abilities and acknowledging their emotions. It's about providing the right balance of control and freedom, ensuring our little ones feel heard within the boundaries we set.
But what happens when those little ones aren't so little anymore? Raising teenagers is like navigating a minefield blindfolded, especially when it comes to the digital world of screens and video games. I open up about a tough incident with my son that I'm sure many of you can relate to. It's a tale of boundaries, empathy, and the delicate dance of parenting a teenager. We'll talk about maintaining a steady heart through the storms of anger and the importance of clear communication. Whether it's dealing with harsh words or guiding them back from regret, this episode is a treasure trove of anecdotes and advice for parents in the trenches, providing the tools to transform conflicts into opportunities for growth and connection.

Transforming Conflict into Connection: A Journey Through the Conscious Not Crazy Approach to Parenting

Are power struggles and discipline battles with your children leaving you feeling overwhelmed? Join me, Kori, as we embark on a transformative journey into understanding the importance of parenting consciously so you don't feel crazy. We will uncover the heart of these challenges and arm you with the strategies to navigate them. As both a seasoned parent and an educator, I've wrestled with the same issues and turned those struggles into a mission to support and uplift other parents through honest conversations and shared experiences. From seeking wisdom from hundreds of thought leaders and child specialists for my strong-willed child to discovering the game-changing approach of parenting consciously and not going crazy, I'll guide you through the pivotal moments that reshaped my parenting philosophy and led to this very podcast. This series is more than just a guide; it's a community where we'll confront the uncomfortable—tackling tough talks with teens about sexuality and substance use—and where we'll learn to manage our own emotions as a model for our kids. With insights from the powerful principles of the conscious, not crazy parenting approach and stories from a decade of supporting fellow parents, we'll explore how to foster critical thinking and emotional intelligence in our children. We'll discuss the significance of modeling behavior, balancing discipline with understanding, and consistently reflecting on our reactions to foster an environment where our children can thrive. Whether you're navigating co-parenting challenges or raising kids solo, you're not alone. Let's grow together in our commitment to Conscious, Not Crazy, parenting.
