OM DENNE EPISODE
In this episode, I share what happened when I gave myself space to feel after an intense Aries full moon. I put on classical piano music and let my body lead. I danced, lay starfished on the cool floor, cried, laughed from my belly and danced again. In that space I met little Anna, the girl who loved putting on shows and recording songs on her red cassette player. She grew up mostly with structured, regimented activities like classical piano and hockey, and dance has always been where I feel free and wholly myself.
That weekend led me straight back to parenting. I talk about how holding our children's uniqueness starts with holding our own. I explain my move away from both authoritarian and passive parenting towards an authoritative approach. That means being clear about what I'm available for and what I'm not, so my children can feel where the edges are and still flourish as themselves.
I also talk about subconscious identities, nervous system work, using fewer words when emotions run high, and building our capacity to simply be with big feelings, both theirs and ours. Our children can be a little map showing us where to tend to ourselves next.
I also share details of my new six-week online course, The Language of Connection, starting on 20th October. It's for mothers who want a deeper connection with their children.
