Sometimes when our child is having a hard time of course we want to fix things, help
them see the bright side. But things might look arduous and difficult for our children and leaning into those upsets with empathy can help them feel seen, heard and understood. This way they are able to let go with more ease. 
 
In this episode a lovely mom Jenna asks how to navigate negativity. We discuss leaning into the icky feelings, validate them and come with empathy to honor discomfort. It’s not easy seeing our children upset but with our love they can make it through. 
 
Episode Highlights:
 
How to respond to our kids when they are negative
Using empathy to heal discomfort
Letting them win
Allowing them to make mistakes

Nobody wants to shame, but sometimes we need a little help figuring out what else we can do. Click here to download the FREE guide now - https://www.peaceandparentingla.com/shame-opt-in
