Repairing with Our Children to Bring Change with Christopher Keck, LPC, DBH
Manage episode 407163568 series 3558422
Last week Christopher Keck shared why it’s helpful to get curious about our past to draw connections between our childhood and how we show up in our parenting today. If you’ve taken time to do that, it's easy to get overwhelmed and you may even be tempted to get stuck in shame. That’s why I wanted Christopher to come back and share how we can begin to rewrite the script and break away from unhealthy reactions.
The insights and tools he shares in this episode are practical and will inspire you to consider how to relate to your children in ways that build (or rebuild) the trust necessary to thrive in these relationships.
In this episode you’ll learn:
- Why it’s critical to increase the response time between an event and reactions to our kids
- Why the “3 R’s” are necessary in an intense moment
- Why you could be preventing a child from learning humility and forgiveness
- Tips for how to repair a relationship with an adult child
- Why our brains need us to celebrate even small victories in creating connection with our kids
