16. The Key Ingredient in Your Parenting Success

In this episode, I share a powerful insight from the recent Mass Women's Conference, specifically focusing on a memorable quote from basketball star Caitlin Clark. While Oprah Winfrey's presence was remarkable, it was Clark's reflection about her mother that perfectly encapsulates what we teach at The School of MOM.

We explore the profound truth behind Clark's words: "It wasn't anything that my mom said, it was just how she was." This statement highlights a fundamental principle in parenting - that our children remember not what we say, but how we make them feel, which is directly connected to how we feel ourselves.

Key points discussed:

• The importance of embodiment over words in parenting
• How our internal state affects our children through co-regulation
• Why self-care and nervous system regulation are crucial parenting tools
• The connection between how we feel and how our children feel
• The power of modeling over instructing
