65. Are We Boxing or Raising a Child? - Parenting as a Team With Tanya Hale
Manage episode 384964705 series 3389590
Are you parenting your kid as a team or does it feel more like you’re in the boxing ring with the other parent, trying to prove that you’re right and they’re wrong?
When emotions run high, it’s sometimes hard to acknowledge that you’re on the same team as the other parent. Instead of sitting down and listening to each other, we automatically shift towards an ‘I’m right and you’re wrong’ mindset.
What if I tell you that it can be different?
My dear friend and incredible mid-life relationship coach Tanya Hale joined me today for this value-packed interview on how we can parent as a team. She’s here to help us communicate better with our spouses (or the other parent if we’re divorced) and our adult children. Oof, doesn’t that sound incredible?!
In this episode on parenting as a team, we discuss:
- Working through our differences as parents;
- How to start working together with the other parent;
- How to get to curiosity with our brains who just want to be right;
- What to do when your spouse is not doing the work;
- And much more!
