Summary: I’m thrilled to welcome Wendy Snyder, a Positive Parenting educator, family life coach & advocate to my podcast this week as she has such a brilliant story of when life gets hard, how you can flip it around to a positive and loving life. Wendy had so much trouble with her daughter being so strong willed after quitting her job to become a stay-at-home mom. She was convinced she had ADHD or something of the sort until she took a local parenting course. Take a listen to this episode to learn how you can flip up your life and gain the knowledge you need to have a more fulfilling and happy parenthood. The topics we cover in this episode are: How you imagine parenthood VS reality The idea behind Cactus Kids Why you don’t want to squash strong-willed behaviors What strategies do and don’t work Different culture pressures Offer an inch and they will take a mile What should families do who are struggling with power? Letting them make the decision Changing your mindset as a parent to not dread certain life moments The beauty of every life stage - toddlers to teenagers How do you keep yourself calm in those difficult moments Self compassion and curiosity How movement can spark joy And remember, do not forget about yourself, take a few minutes for you and have a little fun! — About The Guest - Wendy Snyder Wendy Snyder is a Positive Parenting educator, family life coach & advocate.
