No cost
In Parts one and two we learned to crack the code. We've learned the language. But what happens tomorrow when life hits again? When your boss is demanding, your partner is stressed, and your child needs you to show up as the parent you've always wanted to be? This is where families either fall back into old patterns... or develop their emotional superpower. Let’s build the toolkit that makes compassionate parenting your family's new normal. Claim your SUPERPOWER! Learn with us how to:
Implement age-appropriate mindfulness practices for the whole family
Use Meta-Moments and Best Self strategies to transform conflict to connection
Create a Family Charter- a roadmap to lasting change
