A new mini book club series on another one of my all-time favorite books! Nonviolent Communication by Dr. Marshall Rosenberg.  

Starting with the first two chapters & developing a foundation for healthier communication skills with anyone in your life focusing on these four pillars:
Observations, Feelings, Needs, and Requests.

As we proceed with reviewing this material you will feel more confident in expressing yourself, but even more importantly... become a better listener and observer.  Getting more in-tune and deeply curious about the people around you and what it is they really need and are asking for.  Even if... if isn't being asked for in a nonviolent way.

In this episode, we'll continue our discussion  on Eckhart Tolle's book, A New Earth.  This time focusing on Chapter 6, and becoming free from the Pain Body.  

If you have ever felt shame around being ... less than "mellow," ... if the concepts of Conscious parenting don't come easily or naturally to you, this episode will help you look at your patterns in a new light.  My hope is that you listen to this and feel empowered, encouraged, uplifted AND equipped moving forward into more present days to come.

In this episode we take a look at the significant impact our childhood and adolescent experiences have on our ability to communicate and connect in our romantic partnerships as adult people, helpful tools for conflict, and some simple adjustments to step away from old patterns and into new, intentional ones.

In this episode we're talking all about the Pain Body! What it s, what is looks like and feels like and how it inevitably effects all of your relationships, but especially the relationship you have with your children.

I chose to do this episode for all of the women and mothers specifically who, like me, wanted a resource to become more empowered, excited and confident when it comes to investing, building and managing wealth...

Allegra tailored Factora Wealth with exactly that demographic in mind and I am so happy to be a part of her community, and now her a part of mine.  Being what you wish to teach your children includes this very important, yet uncomfortable for some, detail.  How do we view, manage, and build wealth? What shifts can we make for a healthier, more educated, empowered experience with money?

Allegra and I will talk about that in this episode! Thanks for listening, XO

What roles have we cultivated for ourselves to prove our lovability and value to the people and world around us?  How does identifying with these roles impact us and our children?

In this episode we are breaking down allllll the roles and the reason for them as well as the alternative that is truly going to give us what we want: Real authentic connection and a deep sense of recognition.

A New Earth, Eckhart Tolle

"How is your baby sleeping?" "Is she sleeping through the night?" "Oh he's not in a crib yet?" "Oh she's in a floor bed?" "How many naps does she take?" ... I could keep going on and on, but you get it.

Sleep is one of the most interesting and challenging aspects of life as a parent, AND... life as a new person! Learning your baby while they learn their body and about the world around them, their level of safety and security, your availability... it can all be so, well, exhausting!  

But in this episode I wanted to ease some of the pain by simply focusing on what we CAN control (our mindset), what IS developmentally normal, what IS true when it comes to our babies and their sleep.

I hope it's empowering and helpful for you to listen.

While I'm all about sharing specific examples regarding a conscious relationship with our children, without a grasp on the ego and it's influence in every day interactions, REactions, and behavior... it will surely remain a challenge to implement.

For this reason, I've decided to do a 4-episode long mini book club of Eckhart Tolle's book, "A New Earth" in hopes to give a thorough overview of what the Ego even is, where it comes from in us, both individually and societally, and what it looks like in real time throughout your day and life with your children and everyone else.

Moving forward with this awareness will allow for more peace, more joy, more confidence and fulfillment for you as a parent, a spouse, and the beautiful person that you are.

I hope you enjoy, and stay tuned for the next 3 episodes! : )

Madisun Gray in the house!  If you've ever thought that your life is too crazy, your kids are too wild, and you don't have the patience to truly implement conscious parenting in your lifestyle... We have brought this episode to tell you that maybe none of that is actually true!  Perhaps your pace of living and doing and go, go, go-ing is making a conscious awareness to life and parenting impossible for you.  Or at the very least, hard.  

It's time to romanticize your life, from the way your curtains blow in the breeze when you open a window, to the softness of your sweet baby's belly during nap time cuddles... we want you to slow down, to soften, to enjoy.  To be here, right now and to take that mindset of richness with you moving forward.  

Hope you enjoy!

In this episode I uncover the root issue of almost all uncomfortable circumstances, interactions with our children, with our loved ones, and within ourselves... Self-esteem and our "scale" of lovability that was cultivated for us by our parents and their parents and so on.

Let's break down the real definition of self-esteem and how each and every person is deserving of this feeling of worthiness, of value, of lovability along with how to unravel the subconscious need in many of us to seek outward evidence of that within ourselves and prevent our children from ever needing to do the same.  

In this episode we'll go over a simple mindset shift that will dramatically improve your relationship with your children, help you become a more conscious, present individual, and honestly... just enjoy being a parent so much more.

Are you concerned that your children need to "Learn their lesson" when they make a mistake or a bad decision?  Do you think punitive measures are the best methodology for learning in those moments for our children?  Did they work well for us?

In this episode I'll help parents really think more deeply about this concept by reflecting on a real-life experience with my almost 5-year-old son this past winter and how my son got a very clear understanding of the consequences of his actions in a healthy way...

Thank you so much for listening,
XO, MM

A little breakdown on setting limits and boundaries with our children in a respectful way.  Not a simple, easy task... but definitely one worth more consideration than, "because I said so."
