💡 The real reason you’re not seeing behavior change yet.

Reader -

This video is especially for anyone wondering why things aren't changing fast enough (👋🏻 parents of young kids).

I realized that many people have this misconception about conscious parenting (or parenting in general). And it's causing a lot of unnecessary frustration and guilt.

The real reason you haven't seen a change in your child's behavior yet probably isn't what you think.

We tend to think of behavior as binary.
➡️ Good-Bad
➡️ Right-Wrong.

Maybe your idea of progress is —

When I tell them to stop… I want them to STOP.

They need to understand they can't act like this.

I'm not going to keep repeating myself.

They don't get to be disruptive to others.

I totally get it.

And I understand the desire for immediate results, 🙏🏼 especially when it comes to unwanted behavior.

It's easy to blame our kids or start questioning ourselves, wondering, "Why aren't I getting through to them?"

➡️ But development isn't linear.
It's messy.
It's full of ups and downs.

Sometimes, it feels like one step forward, two steps back.

And that's okay - especially for young children (who are often expected to comply with expectations beyond their maturity level).

I want you to know you have so much more influence than you might realize.

If you have my 💬💙 Communication Cards - this video will show you how to connect with your child without stressing over finding the "perfect" words.

Knowing this about development made me a better parent and communicator (and a more influential leader for my child). I hope this re-set helps you and your kids, too!

Have a beautiful week. And until next time, please remember, conscious - not perfect!

Warmly,

p.s. It's never been particularly easy for me to remain tolerant, and this one idea has helped me have way more compassion for myself and my child.
