Ep #135 The Lovability Principle: Why You’re Worthy Without Conditions 31:03

há 23 hours31:03

31:03

Ever catch yourself thinking about what LOVE really means in our parenting journey? Because WOW - I had so many thoughts swirling around this week that I just HAD to share with you all! In this episode, I'm diving DEEP into unconditional love and lovability (and trust me, this one's a game-changer for both you AND your kiddos). What We're Unpacking Today: Why love is ALWAYS the best option (and feels SO much better than frustration!) The mind-blowing truth: your lovability is ABSOLUTE (not dependent on anyone else!) My step-by-step framework for having those tricky conversations without everyone melting down The surprising connection between loving others unconditionally and finally loving YOURSELF Why it's not our children's job to make us feel good (this one hit me like a ton of bricks when I first realized it!) My Favorite Moment From This Episode: "If I have to choose between feeling frustrated or loving, loving feels SO much better. Learning how to choose that intentionally is everything." Remember when I talked about that lightbulb moment I had lying in bed? "You can either be right or you can love. You really can't do both right now." That changed EVERYTHING for me! The Connect Method Way: Drop into curiosity instead of criticism (game-changer!) Focus on understanding, not being right Create safety in YOUR nervous system first Get clear on just the facts everyone can agree on Identify what you're both making those facts mean Brainstorm solutions together without rehashing the problem Here's the beautiful truth: Your relationship with your child is simply your thoughts about them. That's it! And YOU get to choose those thoughts! How powerful is that?! 💪 Remember, love is a SKILL we're developing. It takes practice, and that's exactly what we're here for. Can't wait to hear how this resonates with you! Love and connection, Andee 💕 PS - If something from today's episode sparked something for you, use that as your focus for the week ahead. Small shifts create BIG ripples! Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast…

Ep #134 Encountering Futility: Why It’s Life-Changing (Even If It Sounds Depressing!) 51:00

há 4 dias51:00

51:00

So today's episode is ALL about a concept that might sound super depressing at first glance, but is actually one of the most powerful tools we have for emotional growth. I'm talking about encountering futility - yep, that word you probably haven't tossed around since your college philosophy class (if ever)! What Is Futility Anyway? 🤔 Futility is when we're up against something we literally CANNOT change. You know that feeling of figuratively banging your head against the wall? That's it! Think: Your toddler flailing on the floor because you won't give them a cookie Your teenager giving you death glares because you set a phone curfew Not making the team or getting invited to the party Missing an important call (more on my personal meltdown about this later!) The word actually comes from Latin "futilis" meaning leaky, vain, or useless - like a vessel that can't hold water. How perfect is that? Because when we encounter futility, we often "leak" tears as we process those emotions! Why Encountering Futility Is Actually AMAZING ✨ Here's the wild part - every time we go up against something we cannot change, we're given this incredible opportunity for growth. When we allow ourselves to feel the emotions instead of fighting them, our brains literally change! We become more emotionally mature. The science shows that when we go from "mad to sad" (Dr. Neufeld's brilliant phrase), our nervous system logs this experience as safe, and our emotional capacity increases. It happens spontaneously - we don't have to consciously try to grow emotionally. It just happens when we create the right conditions! The Mad-to-Sad Journey 🛣️ The magical transformation happens when we: Stop resisting or fighting against the unchangeable situation Allow ourselves to feel the disappointment/sadness/grief Surrender to what is And guess what? Those tears of sadness are actually different chemically from angry tears - they contain stress hormones that we're literally crying out of our bodies! (How cool is THAT?!) My Personal Futility Meltdown in New Zealand 😭 I had this intense experience last month in New Zealand. My son Cooper is living in Chile having some really challenging experiences, and we had this important scheduled call. But because of the time difference, travel, and my notifications being off, I MISSED IT. I completely lost it when I realized I wouldn't be able to talk to him for another week. I sobbed for hours (yes, HOURS) on the couch, surrendering to this situation I couldn't change. And then something magical happened - I felt this incredible shift inside me. The resilience that followed was palpable. I actually wrote a poem about the experience (which I shared in the episode - it's not winning any awards but it captures the journey!). How to Create Your Own Futility Encounters 🗓️ You don't have to wait for life to throw futility your way - you can actually schedule these encounters! Remember that beautiful scene from "Shrinking" where Jimmy and Alice sit on a park bench with headphones, listening to music and crying together over their loss? THAT'S encountering futility intentionally! Here's your homework this week: Prepare a "futility playlist" - songs that bring up emotions for you (mine is Rachmaninoff's Piano Concerto No. 2) Find movies that reliably make you cry (I love "About Time" - watch it every year!) When you feel emotions building up, schedule time to feel them completely Remember This Truth 💫 Don't try to teach your kids all of this until you know it yourself! Practice on yourself first, and they'll learn from who you ARE, not what you SAY. Emotional mat Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast…

Remember my infamous "baby powder blizzard of 2007"? That moment when my toddlers created what felt like the apocalypse in our playroom, and somehow—miraculously—I didn't lose my mind? That was my pivot point, and I'm sharing exactly how you can create these pivots in your own parenting journey. What You'll Learn: Why the traditional "correction" approach to parenting backfires (even positive rewards can dampen intrinsic motivation!) The mindset shift from being a "sculptor" of your children to being their "gardener" My 5-step process to transform your parenting style and create lasting connection How to understand your own mind and identify the thought patterns sabotaging your parenting The science behind why consequences don't work (and what actually does) Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast…

Ep #132 Regret Growth 24:35

há 11 dias24:35

24:35

In this episode, we're exploring the concept of "Regret Growth" - a transformative approach to handling those moments of parental regret that so many of us experience. Key Takeaways: Regret Growth vs. Regret Spiral : Discover the crucial difference between using regret as a catalyst for positive change versus getting trapped in cycles of shame and self-judgment Why most regret is unproductive : Learn why dwelling on past mistakes rarely leads to meaningful growth and often keeps us stuck The three-step Regret Growth cycle : Awareness : Acknowledging the ping of regret without judgment Acceptance : Understanding you were doing your best with what you had in that moment Accountability : Taking responsibility and creating a plan to do better next time The Regret Forecast : A powerful exercise to imagine what you might regret 10 years from now, helping you prioritize what truly matters today Why growth doesn't come from guilt : Understanding that beating yourself up over past parenting moments doesn't lead to positive change Powerful Quotes: "A man is not old until regret takes the place of dreams." - John Barry Moore "Growth doesn't come from guilt. It comes from choosing to move forward with intention." "Let your past mistakes inform you of how to do better. But never let your past mistakes define you." This episode is perfect for any parent who has ever found themselves ruminating over a difficult moment with their child, wishing they could go back and handle it differently. Turn those moments of regret into opportunities for profound personal growth! Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast…

Ep #131 The Failure Feedback Loop: How to Parent Smarter, Not Stricter 23:09

há 15 dias23:09

23:09

In this juicy episode, I am spilling ALL the tea about why failure isn't just normal—it's your secret parenting superpower! 💪 Think about it: Michael Jordan missed 9,000+ shots and Ed Sheeran was once a super awkward teen musician (he showed the receipts and everything!). Their "secret"? They didn't avoid failure—they COLLECTED it like badges of honor! I'm breaking down my game-changing "Five E's" formula that transforms those epic parenting face-plants into golden growth opportunities: • Energy (showing up 100%) • Effort (going all-in) • Ending power (sticking through the hard stuff) • Evaluation (learning from every no) • Emotional presence (bringing your whole self) And I share the absolutely LIFE-CHANGING advice I gave my son while he's out there getting doors slammed in his face selling pest control. Turns out, every "no" is just collecting evidence that you're getting closer to your "yes"! (Mind = blown, right?!) So next time your toddler throws spaghetti across the room or your teen gives you The Eye Roll™, don't beat yourself up! You're not failing at parenting—you're actually building your parenting muscles through productive failure. Ready to start collecting productive failures? I dare you to track 100 this month! (And yes, small ones totally count!) Let's ditch the perfectionist thinking and get EXCITED about our fails, friend. Because that's where the magic happens! ✨ Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast…

Ep #130 The Awareness, Allowing, Wisdom Process 1:01:56

há 18 dias1:01:56

1:01:56

Hey there, amazing parents!!! Today's episode is ALL about the transformative power of the awareness, allowing, and wisdom process. I'm walking you through my signature STEAR and PEACE processes that have helped thousands of parents shift from correction-based to connection-based parenting. It's not about being perfect—it's about being present and compassionate with yourself first. Episode Highlights: STEAR Recap : How our thoughts about situations create our emotions, actions, and ultimately our results The Power of Awareness : Why looking at your thoughts is the essential first step to changing anything in your life The Art of Allowing : Why most of us rush to change our thoughts before we've fully allowed and processed our emotions Wisdom-Based Change : How to make changes from a place of peace rather than panic The Compassionate Witness : Becoming the observer of your thoughts instead of being identified with them Remember, lovelies: you can't skip the ALLOW step! That's where all the magic happens. And yes, it's the hardest part because it means FEELING those uncomfortable emotions. But trust me—I've been there, done that, got the T-shirt—it's worth it. Sending you so much love and support on your parenting journey! ✨ xoAndee Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast…

Ep #129 Parenting: The Job Where Everyone Thinks You're Doing It Wrong 40:54

Let's get real for a hot second—ever feel like parenting is just one giant tug-of-war? (And somehow you're ALWAYS the one about to face-plant into the mud puddle, am I right?!) In today's episode, I'm diving into my "Dream Relationship Strategy" – the exact framework I've used to transform my relationships with my kids (including my son who's turning 24 this year—which is WILD because I'm pretty sure I'm still 24 myself! 🤪). What You'll Learn: Why your brain is literally the command center of your parenting (yes, everything starts RIGHT there!) How those sneaky thoughts like "nothing will ever get better" are totally sabotaging your connection with your kids The mind-blowing reframe that turns "my kid is SO frustrating" into "my child is doing the hard work of growing up" (game-changer alert! 🚨) Why Indigenous cultures have been nailing this whole parenting thing while many of us are still struggling with outdated strategies My Favorite Quotes From This Episode: "All of those external tools that I depended on for years, it was better for me to parent without them." "My child is doing the hard work of growing up. I'm honored to be here to help." "Connection teaches more than consequences." Your Homework Assignment (because growth doesn't happen by accident!): Identify one sticky situation where your relationship feels strained Write down ALL your thoughts about it (yes, even the judgmental ones we all have!) Thank your nervous system for trying to protect you (because even those triggered reactions are trying to help!) Create new, empowering thoughts to replace the draining ones Practice visualizing yourself believing these new thoughts Remember: You're not just studying for a test here—you're rehearsing for the role of a lifetime as the parent your kids actually WANT in their corner! Want to become the parent your kids call when they're 25 with GOOD news, not just when their car breaks down? This episode is your roadmap!

Ep #128 Why 'BEING' Trumps 'Doing' in Parenting (And Most Parents Get This Backwards) 59:49

há 25 dias59:49

59:49

So there I was, wide awake at 5:15 AM in FREAKING NEW ZEALAND (yes, we're still traveling—more on that later!) with this message practically BURSTING out of me. My body was like, "Andee, get up RIGHT NOW and talk to your people!" So here I am, messy bun and all, coming in hot with some truth bombs about parenting that literally changed my entire life. The Big Juicy Secret I Can't Keep Anymore: Who you're BEING matters waaaaay more than what you're DOING as a parent. Think about it—you could say "time to wake up" with the exact same words but completely different energy: Option A: Frazzled, irritated, rushing (we've ALL been there) Option B: Grounded, present, compassionate Same words, totally different result! And guess what? Your kids have these amazing things called mirror neurons that pick up your emotional vibe INSTANTLY. They're like little emotional WiFi receivers! 📡 Real Talk Moment: Remember when I was first shifting my parenting and thinking, "Why didn't that work? I said the words in a calm voice!" Meanwhile, I was RAGING inside but kept my tone even. Newsflash: the emotions behind our words don't lie, people! The Ultimate Parenting Glow-Up: I'm spilling all my favorite insights from this amazing book "13 Things Mentally Strong People Don't Do" by Amy Morin: They don't waste time feeling sorry for themselves (but they DO feel their feelings—big difference!) They don't give their power away (your teenager's eye roll doesn't control your mood, I promise!) They don't shy away from change (hello, adapting to each new stage of childhood!) ...and there's so much more goodness in the episode! The Story That Still Makes Me Tear Up: So picture little Andee, maybe 10 years old, in our giant brown 80s Suburban (oldest of SEVEN kids, remember?). I accidentally stepped right into one of the homemade pies my mom had made for the school fall festival. 🥧👟 I was MORTIFIED, waiting for the judgment hammer to fall. But my amazing mom just looked at me and said, "It's fine, it's totally fine," and drove on minus one pie. No big deal. THAT, my friends, is someone whose BEING and DOING are perfectly aligned. (Thanks, Mom! 💕) Your Homework (Because I Care): Stop asking "What do I DO when my kid does XYZ?" and start asking "Who do I want to BE when my kid does XYZ?" Game. Changer. Your kids don't need perfect—they need YOU in all your beautiful, messy, authentic glory. (And honestly? That's way more interesting anyway!) Sending buckets of love from New Zealand (only a week and a half left—we're soaking up every second!), Andee 💫 P.S. If you feel like you're failing sometimes, welcome to the club! The people who succeed aren't the ones who never fail—they're the ones who refuse to let failure be the end of their story. Keep going! P.P.S. I'm totally planning a whole episode on the journey of this trip and how it relates to parenting. Stay tuned! 🌏✈️ Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast…

Okay, can we talk about something that's been LIVING in my brain lately? You know that feeling when you're absolutely POSITIVE you need to win an argument with your kiddo... and then suddenly realize that winning might actually be losing? Yeah, THAT. 🤯 In today's episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on something that's about to change your whole parenting game: what if I told you that being right isn't actually the goal? (I know, I know - stay with me here!) Here's what we're unpacking together: 🎯 The mind-blowing truth about relationships (spoiler alert: they're not what you think!) ✨ Why your relationship with your child isn't actually about their behavior (say what now?) 🧠 The secret sauce to difficult conversations that'll make you feel like a connection ninja 💫 My P.E.A.C.E. method that's about to become your new best friend 🔮 A late-night revelation that changed everything (because apparently, wisdom hits different at 2 AM!) Picture this: You're in the middle of a heated moment with your child CEO (aka your strong-willed child) , and instead of trying to prove your point, you've got this magical new way of handling things that actually WORKS. Sounds dreamy, right? That's exactly what we're diving into! Plus, I'm sharing my step-by-step guide to: - Dropping the right/wrong game (because honestly, who needs that drama?) - Listening like a fascinated scientist (way more fun than it sounds!) - Using facts as your secret weapon (they're like relationship Switzerland - totally neutral!) - Turning fear into your superpower (plot twist you didn't see coming!) Here's the thing, beautiful humans: The moment I stopped trying to win at parenting was the moment everything started shifting. And I mean EVERYTHING.

Today's episode is basically what happened when years of parenting, and one very persistent thought about "hard days" collided into what might be one of the most important perspective shifts I've ever had. Grab your favorite drink and let's dive into this game-changing conversation! 🌟 In this episode, I'm diving deep into: Why the most successful parents (and people) are actually the ones most willing to feel negative emotions (mind-blown yet?) The shocking revelation about why there's actually no such thing as a "hard day" (stick with me on this one!) My confession about writing my book and why it took THREE WHOLE YEARS (grammar is still not my bestie, y'all) A totally new way to think about challenges that will revolutionize your parenting journey Real talk: I share some stories about my own journey, including that time I thought going to the store with one kid was THE HARDEST THING EVER (oh, sweet past Andee... just wait until you have six! 😂). My absolute favorite nugget from this episode? "The most successful people are the ones who are most willing to feel negative emotions." Let that sink in for a minute. 🤯 Whether you're currently: Dealing with a Sharpie artist who decided your walls needed "updating" Wondering if your teenager's eye-rolling could qualify as an Olympic sport Just trying to figure out why adulting feels so... adult-y This episode is your permission slip to see it all differently. Because maybe, just maybe, those "hard" days are actually just level-up opportunities in disguise! Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast…

If you've ever found yourself googling "Is it normal for kids to fight 37 times before noon?" or "How to stop yelling when everything is LITERALLY ON FIRE" – I just dropped the survival guide we've all been desperately needing with this episode! What I'm Sharing In This Episode In this workshop (which was SO good I just HAD to share it on the podcast!), I'm walking you through: 🧠 The Off-Track Behavior Truth : I'm redefining what's actually happening when kids fight, ignore you, or melt down (hint: it's not them being jerks on purpose, I promise!) 😤 The Thought-Feeling-Action Chain : Why you go from "they're fighting again" to completely losing it in 2.5 seconds (and how to interrupt that pattern!) 🗺️ Your Personal Recipe Card : My step-by-step method for creating YOUR personalized emergency plan for those moments when you want to scream into a pillow. ⚡ The Connection Secret : How I learned to stay emotionally connected when every fiber of my being wanted to run away or shut down My Favorite Ah-Ha Moments To Listen For: "Off track behavior is when the kids are not able to stay within the boundaries we've established together. It's an indicator that the kids are struggling and need help." (This definition CHANGED MY LIFE, y'all. I used to think my kids were just being difficult on purpose!) "Your thoughts about them will be dependent on your expectations of them and how well they meet those expectations." (Ouch. Fifteen years ago this one hit me right in the parenting feels. But once I got it? GAME. CHANGER.) The Too-Exhausted-To-Listen-To-It-All Version: Your kids' behavior = information about what's happening inside them (not a personal attack on you!) Your thoughts create your reactions (and you can actually choose different thoughts!) Write down your personal off-track recipe on an actual card so your brain doesn't short-circuit next time Be the calm you want to see (even if you have to fake it till you make it at first!) Be patient with yourself because this parenting gig is HARD and we're all figuring it out as we go xoxoAndee ❤️❤️ P.P.S. In this episode, I talk about how I had to drive through a BLIZZARD to deliver this workshop. That's how important I think this stuff is. So if you're struggling, please know you're not alone – and there's a way through! (And maybe leave a review if this episode was helpful. It makes my day AND helps other parents find us!)

Ep #124 Going All In: Why Half-Hearted Parenting is Like Training for the Olympics in Flip-Flops 50:50

há 6 weeks50:50

50:50

We're diving DEEP into what it really means to go all in - not just in parenting, but in life. And before you think "Oh great, another episode about trying harder" (I see you, I hear you), this is actually about something completely different. Remember Eddie the Eagle? That gloriously awkward British ski-jumper who showed up at the Olympics having barely ski jumped before (compared to the other competitors)? His story completely blew my mind, and it's going to change how you think about commitment forever. Trust me on this one. In this episode, I'm sharing: Why resilience isn't actually a personality trait (thank goodness, right?) The real reason your "failures" might actually be your biggest wins My slightly unhinged but totally effective $10,000 commitment challenge The Mario Kart theory of parenting (yes, this is a thing, and yes, it's going to make so much sense) Plus, I'm getting super real about my own journey - including that moment I looked at my 2023 photos and had a total "oh honey" moment about my fitness journey. Because sometimes the best way to learn about commitment is to face-plant a few times along the way (metaphorically speaking... mostly). And for my League peeps - whether you're in Pivot or Mastery - you're going to love how this ties into everything we've been working on. And if you're not in League yet... well, let's just say March's Pivot 5.0 is looking pretty tempting right now! 😉 So grab yourself something to drink (water with electrolytes is my go to these days), find a quiet spot, and let's talk about why a "sort of commitment" never won an Olympic medal - and what that means for all of us. Can't wait to hear what hits home for you! With love from the mountains, Andee P.S. If you've ever felt like you're not doing enough, not getting it right, or just generally fumbling through this whole parenting thing - this episode is especially for you. Because sometimes the shortest jump in Olympic history can actually be your biggest win. (Intrigued? Just wait - it's going to make you tear up a little. It did me!)

Hey there, beautiful souls! 👋 In today's episode, we're diving deep into the messy, beautiful world of self-forgiveness and what it really means to "fail" as a parent. Imagine you've just had one of those moments where your kid's room looks like a tornado had a party with a hurricane, and you...may have slightly lost your cool. 😬 We've all been there, right? Today we're unpacking why beating yourself up about it is SO last season, and what to do instead. In This Episode: Why your past only exists in your thoughts (mind-bending stuff, folks!) The adorable children's book "The Sorry Plane" and what it teaches us about giving space for feelings Why Nelson Mandela's "I never lose, I either win or learn" quote will help you fulfill your parenting goals A beautiful forgiveness poem that might make you cry (in a good way!) How to transform your "mom fail" moments into growth opportunities The Thomas Edison approach to parenting - as adapted by me (he "failed" 10,000 times and turned out fine!) Quotable Moments : "If I could have done better, I would have done better" (Your new mantra, btw!) "Forgiveness is for you to give to you first" (Mind. Blown. 🤯) "The past is over - we're now bringing those memories and thinking about them right now" Key Takeaways: Your past isn't a life sentence (unless you keep replaying it on repeat in your head) Being hard on yourself isn't actually helping (shocking, I know!) Judgment keeps you stuck, curiosity moves you forward Your nervous system being activated isn't a character flaw (it's just being human!) Action Steps: Pick ONE recent parenting moment that's been playing on repeat in your head, and practice reframing it through the lens of compassion. (And maybe stick a Post-it note on your mirror that says "I'm doing my best" - trust me on this one! 💕) Next Steps: Leave a review if you've been enjoying the CMP Podcast…
