17. 5 Parenting Fears You Don't Need in Your Life

In this episode, I’m inviting you to throw out the one ingredient that will ruin parenting for you: FEAR.

I’m sure you’ve heard “faith over fear” a million times. But unfortunately, the world’s way of parenting is extremely fear-driven, which means it can be pretty counterintuitive to parent from a place of faith.

Join me in this episode as I address five common parenting fears:

1. Fear of what others think
2. Fear of the child’s emotions
3. Fear of rejection/disobedience
4. Fear of the child’s inner badness
5. Fear of messing up the child

We’ll talk about how they show up, why they’re unfounded, and how to release them. I promise if you hang with me and apply these principles, your days with your kids will start to feel exponentially more peaceful and fun.
