I understand that learning empathy can be a challenging journey, especially if it's not something that was modeled for us in our own upbringing. However, I've learned that empathy is a crucial component of creating a strong connection with our children. That means being present with them, especially during times of big emotions, listening with an open heart, and truly hearing what they have to say. If we can do that, we have the power to turn those moments into opportunities for connection, and that can make all the difference.Join my new Connected Parent Mastermind designed for parents who want to strengthen their connection with their children, experience more love, and reduce frustration.
