How about a U-turn? Sometimes the most helpful thing in parenting is to find your footing first.⁠ ⁠
⁠
"Instead of the constant struggle to fix or change your kids, try a U-turn. Extend some kindness and compassion to yourself. Begin to nurture yourself so your kids can thrive."⁠
⁠
This wisdom comes from Dr. Susan Pollak, clinical psychologist, teacher of mindfulness and compassion in psychotherapy, and author of Self-Compassion for Parents. You can meet her in Episode 7 when we explore the power of self-compassion for parents & caregivers. ⁠
⁠
Parenting is hard. We deserve more support. Have a listen to the A Little Easier podcast series for camaraderie, new perspectives, and simple shifts to give you a lift. 🎧️🎙️💗

When I asked the world-renowned (and wonderfully relatable) trauma expert, Dr. Bruce Perry for his best parenting advice, this is what he said.

"Just be okay with yourself, and everything else will from from that in a better way."
⁠
Did you notice: it's not about what 'to do' for the kids? It starts with us. ⁠
⁠
Rather than adding more pressure to your already overflowing plate, think of this as permission to pay attention to your needs, too.⁠
⁠
Listen to ✨A Little Easier✨ the 12-part podcast series for a powerful mix of science, stories, and practices to help parents build resilience and find connection in the face of all kinds of challenges.⁠

As the news about children's mental health continues to get more alarming, the caring adults in the background are stressed too. In Episode 1 of A Little Easier, Dr. Nicole Beurkens explains that what we're seeing in kids makes sense, given all the pressures they're experiencing in this world. ⁠
⁠
In order to be the best source of support for our kids, we need to keep learning and talking and finding ways to be well ourselves. There's no finish line, as Dr. Nicole explains here:⁠
⁠
"It's not a 'you figure it out' and then you're done. It's a constant evolving process that we have to engage with. It's about helping ourselves stay as resilient as we can, even in the midst of really stressful, difficult situations that we don't have control over." ⁠
⁠
Thanks for sharing your wisdom ⁠
⁠
👉 A Little Easier is a 12-part podcast series that blends insights from neuroscience, psychology, mindfulness, and real-life experiences to help parents & caregivers fend off burnout and find more balance. You can find it wherever you get your podcasts. 🌻⁠

When our kids struggle - in any way - we caring adults tend to flip into solution-seeking mode. We put our own needs on the back burner "for now". ⁠
⁠
But our emotional health and well-being is linked! I love how Mantu Joshi reminds us of this paradox. ⁠
⁠
"All we can think about is 'I just need to fix my kids so that they can be livable, and the paradox is that when we begin to find our own wholeness or wellness, that takes care of so many things." ⁠
⁠
In case you needed this nudge, make a little space to nourish your nervous system this weekend.⁠

Belief > Fear ❤️ Having seen 5 generations of children grow up, psychologist Dr. Linda Budd has witnessed incredible examples of human resilience. This quote stood out for me as a real and beautiful 'a-ha'.⁠

What has helped you? What advice would you offer parents who are facing stressful or scary times?

In our LAST episode of the season, we're looking at ways that stress and trauma can lead to growth and new possibilities.⁠
⁠
What kind of future can we imagine when it’s all we can do to get through today? Psychologist Dr. Chris Willard tells us about the phenomenon of post-traumatic growth, and we’ll catch up with some of the parents we’ve visited throughout this season to find out how they’re doing now. It’s inspiring to see the ways we can all grow through what we go through. Parenting challenges don't have to crush us, they can change us for good. 🧡🌻✨⁠

Amelia Nagoski, co-author of the Burnout said this -- and it was the most validating statement we parents rarely seem to hear. ⁠
⁠
We have an alarming epidemic of parental burnout. And a recent survey on parenting in America found that 4 out of 10 parents are “extremely” or “very worried” that their children might struggle with depression and anxiety. That's a lot of stress.⁠
⁠
We need systems to change. We need to connect with and care for each other more. And we must keep caring for ourselves. We deserve that, and so do our kids. ⁠
⁠
In Ep 3 of A Little Easier, Amelia shares 7 simple science-based strategies you can use to complete the biological stress cycle — and return to a more balanced state. ⁠Let it out!⁠

Ep. 11 Find Your Voice dropped today! In my conversations with parents, nearly everyone mentioned that the parenting piece wouldn't be as hard if they didn't have to advocate so hard to get the support they need. ⁠
⁠
So often, the systems that were meant to support us just don’t... unless we learn to ADVOCATE. This shouldn't be the case, but it's the reality.⁠
⁠
That's why in Ep 11 we're focusing on Finding Your Voice 🔥💪🏽🗣️Professionals might have all the right credentials, but YOU are the expert on your child.⁠
⁠
Navigating the medical maze or the special education system often means speaking out. To become an effective advocate for your kids and yourself, you have to master the elevator pitch; setting aside visceral emotions and building a powerful case for what you need. In Episode 11, we hear from parents who’ve found meaning and purpose in advocacy, and one who even made a movie about her experience!⁠
⁠
🗣️ What has your experience been around advocating?⁠
⁠
If you've been enjoying ✨A Little Easier✨ I hope you share it with a friend, a teacher, a doctor, or therapist. This podcast series was made to bolster parents and caregivers because our well-being translates to our kids - and we deserve to feel good, too. 🌻⁠

Here's a 💕 "I'm on your team."⁠ 💕⁠
⁠
This moving insight from Merriam Saunders may seem 'obvious' but it's not always the way we (parents, caregivers, teachers - even therapists) tend to approach the situation when our kids are struggling. ⁠
⁠
What if we focused more on understanding and less on changing them? What if we could know as much as possible about how their brain and body work? What strengths can they tap? What interests and activities light them up? What hopes and dreams do they have for themselves? Then we could work with them to find creative ways around their challenges and vulnerabilities and help them thrive in their own way. ⁠
⁠
Post reads:⁠
"I think as we develop an understanding for the struggles that our children face, for me at least, it got easier to find compassion for them and to feel like I was less in conflict with them and more coming alongside in their journey." - Merriam Saunders ⁠
⁠
This quote is from Episode 2, where we shine some light on the difficult feelings we have as parents - and what can help!⁠
⁠
👉 Find ✨A Little Easier✨ wherever you get your podcasts, as they say. 🌻⁠
⁠
Tomorrow we release Episode 11 (out of 12) which is all about finding your voice as an for yourself and your kids.

Did you know that parental burnout rates are highest in western countries, where we value individualism and independence the most? We evolved as a social species, living in villages that helped us raise healthy humans. ⁠
⁠
This quote about finding your village, from mom Jeniece Stewart really hit home:⁠
⁠
"It's such a relief to not be doing things alone. Independence is super overrated. Are we really that independent? We're all interdependent. I think that's such a beautiful thing."⁠
⁠

I asked a world-renowned neuroscientist, psychiatrist + trauma expert about his thoughts on the challenges of parental burnout and raising children through struggles.⁠
⁠
➡️ This is what he said: ⁠
⁠
"We ask way too much of our parents in this society." ⁠
- Dr. Bruce Perry⁠
⁠
So if you're feeling like you just can't do enough or be enough, let this be a gentle reminder that it's not you. We were never meant to do this alone. While all kinds of system-level changes need to happen to better support parents and caregivers, we can start by reaching out to others.⁠
⁠
Episode 10 offers stories and ideas for building your village. "Village" might sound like a quaint term, but the truth is, we all need one.⁠ That's how we evolved - and biologically, we haven't changed much!⁠
⁠
In *What Happened to You*, the book Dr. Perry co-authored with Oprah, he highlighted how important connection is for our well-being: "Our major finding is that your history of relational health - your connectedness to family, community, and culture - is more predictive of mental health than your history of adversity."⁠

There's so much commonality in our parenting experiences, even if the challenges we face are different. ⁠
⁠
Amy Brown reminds: "Sometimes we assume, just because somebody doesn't have the exact same thing we have, they're not gonna understand. But that's so NOT true." ⁠
⁠
I hope you feel inspired to build your village. It doesn't have to be huge. Finding that one person who will let you vent or cry, help brainstorm or laugh without judgment is key. We weren't meant to do this alone.⁠
⁠
Episode 10: The Village is here with inspiration for building yours!

Thank you

If it takes a village to raise a child, it also takes a village to support the parents — but who has a village anymore? ⁠
⁠
Episode 10 is out today! ⁠
⁠
Our society leaves so many parents feeling lost and alone.⁠ And if your child is facing extra challenges, it might be harder to make the connections you need. ⁠None of us should have to go it alone.⁠
⁠
In this episode, we explore some ways to connect with other parents who really get it. We have a laugh with the refreshingly frank 'Shut Up Sisters' who show us how they connect by celebrating the humor of raising 'imperfect' kids, follow Erin on her journey to build her own support network, and talk about the joys and perils of social media with moms Devon and Jeniece.

I had the distinct honor and pleasure of sitting down (virtually) at Phillip Cowan & Carolyn Pape Cowan's kitchen table to discuss what they have learned in their 4+ decade career about the importance of co-parenting relationships and the role of fathers.⁠
⁠
This dynamic duo (both PhD's in psychology) co-directed and trained facilitators in three longitudinal intervention studies with partners who are parents, all guided by a family systems model, to support positive cognitive, social, and emotional outcomes for children. There was so much wisdom to tap into. I barely scratched the surface...⁠
⁠
Phil noted how often parenting advice is aimed at mothers alone. But his research and experience have shown that too! The Cowans also note that working on our co-parenting relationship - no matter how our family looks - is crucial.⁠
⁠
👉 Meet the Cowans in Episode 9: Family Matters ⁠🌈⁠
⁠
Special thanks to .phd for introducing us!⁠

If you have a child who struggles (and based on the data, there are MANY of us), AND you have a spouse or parenting partner, then you know how hard it can be to stay on the same page. 😣⁠
⁠
In Episode 9: Family Matters, we're expanding beyond what we need ourselves, to what our other kids & partners need. Because we're all part of a family system. (Remember, we're connected like WiFi! 🌈)⁠
⁠
Merriam Saunders reminds us that each of us is on our own path towards acceptance. Keeping this in mind can help us appreciate and respect where our partner is coming from.⁠
⁠
"There is a lot of unspoken grief when you have a child with struggles. You and your partner might not be going through the same stage at the same time." ⁠
- Merriam Saunders, LMFT ⁠
⁠
Note 1 - If you missed Ep. 2 "Secret Feelings", we discuss grief and conflicting emotions parents have in Ep. 2 Secret Feelings.⁠
⁠
Note 2 - I realize some of you are truly on our own and want to give you a shout out. What you're doing isn't easy, and you are amazing. ⁠

Siblings of children with extra needs have needs, too — and we can do a lot to meet those needs if we know what matters most to them.
⁠
What do siblinigs wish we knew? What helps grow resilience?⁠
⁠
🔦 Siblings take the spotlight in Ep. 9 of ✨A Little Easier✨⁠
⁠
We also talk about marriages and parenting partnerships :)⁠
⁠
"I think many siblings [of kids with extra needs] grow up feeling that parents put their own needs second, and that really impacts them later in life." - Emily Holl

11/01/2023

When one child has greater needs than the other kids, it impacts everyone in the family, in all kinds of ways. ⁠
⁠
In Ep. 9 we spotlight the sibling experience: what they wish we knew, and what can help them feel seen and supported. ⁠
⁠
Did you know there are organizations and programs created specifically to support siblings? Emily Holl is a sibling herself and Director of the She reminds us that appearing "fine" could really be a way of coping. All kids need connection.⁠
⁠
👉 Let us know in the comments... what has been the best strategy for supporting siblings in your family? 💕⁠
⁠
⁠
⁠
Post reads:⁠
"The sibling getting straight A's in school, and they're on the debate team, and they're playing sports... those are the ones you really need to worry about. Because those are the children who really need to know that it's OKAY not to be perfect."⁠ - Emily Holl

(Reposting this with the corrected Episode number!) ⁠
⁠
What do siblings and partners wish we knew?⁠
⁠
When one person in a family struggles, it affects the whole family system. In Episode 9, we're focusing on how we nourish family relationships through tough terrain. ⁠
⁠
First, we spotlight the siblings. Mom Jeniece Dortch explains what inspired her to think about the unique sibling experience, and Emily Holl describes how her identity as a sibling led her to a career. ⁠

We also learn what can help us support marriages and parenting partnerships - plus how to foster a more positive emotional climate at home. ⁠

How do you manage when your child is struggling and you're desperate to find a fix? Mantu Joshi reminds us that sometimes, part of the solution looks more like... active acceptance. ❤️⁠
⁠
"We don't have to solve the puzzle. It's not a Rubik's cube, where we have to get all the colors on the right side... Rather than trying to solve it and try to get our life back to the way it was, it's okay for the colors to be mixed up." - Mantu Joshi⁠
⁠
Mantu is a pastor, chaplain, interfaith teaching leader, and author of The Resilient Parent. You can meet him throughout the season in the ✨A Little Easier✨ podcast. He's featured a lot in Ep. 8 "Be a Penguin" ⁠
⁠
FUN FACT: In my conversation with she said figuring out how to help her son felt like trying to solve a Rubik's cube. She didn't know where to start! When Mantu brought up a Rubik's cube again, I knew it had to be one of the symbols for our show. Check out our cover art (thank you 😍) to find more symbols in the series.

⁠
In this episode, we'll hear a story of resilience from Rev. Mantu Joshi, a pastor, author, and dad.

We can love our kids to the moon and still grieve the child, the relationship, the life, or the parent experience we imagined we'd have. That process of coming to terms with the gap between expectations and reality is grief, and it can hurl us into a swirl of uncomfortable feelings. ⁠
⁠
How can we allow ourselves to grieve? What does acceptance look like? Why should we give ourselves permission to feel? We dive into all this in Episode 2 "Secret Feelings".⁠

This is the story behind the ✨A Little Easier✨ podcast. I came into this year with the intention of creating a resource to help parents and caregivers find more ease. Like many people, my own life experience fueled this passion. Parents are being overloaded with suggestions but not enough support. If we want to give our kids the scaffolding they need to develop in a healthy way, we need to be feeling sturdy ourselves.

Leave a ❤️ if you're with us on this mission to bolster parents and caregivers. And please SHARE the show with others who could benefit. 👉️ Did you know you can text a podcast episode to a friend?

Here are a few quick facts about ✨A Little Easier✨
- it's a 12-episode series
- each episode builds on the last (but you can listen to any episode on its own)
- We've dropped 7 episodes so far
- Leading experts have taken us through everything from the science of stress and the nervous system, to the power of radical acceptance, mindfulness, emotional intelligence, and co-regulation
- Real parents have shared their stories and insights to bring this science to life

Coming up next Tuesday, we'll be exploring what resilience really means.

And here's a sneak peek beyond that: In the remaining episodes, we explore how the challenges of one person impact the rest of the family, what we can do to support partnerships and siblings, what it takes to build your village, and how to find your voice as an advocate.

By the time you listen to Episode 12, you might be surprised how many insights and tools you've collected that can help you grow and thrive in the face of your own parenting challenges. ❤️

It's the end of the week and the middle of the holidaze, which means stress might be revving.
⁠
I love this reminder from .brackett in Episode 7 of A Little Easier. He's referring to a concept that Lisa Feldman Barrett introduces in her book, How Emotions Are Made. She uses the term Body Budget to describe how the brain budgets the energy in your body to keep you alive and well. Maintaining a balanced body budget is important for regulating our emotions and our overall sense of well-being.⁠

Do you ever feel like you should be doing more and trying harder to be a better parent? All that pressure undermines our peace and steals our joy. Going easier on ourselves - and our kids - is a gift. ⁠
⁠
In Episode 7: Good Enough, mom Devon explained why she decided to break the cycle.⁠
⁠
"I do not want to be a "supermom" because the pressure of that is just so heavy to navigate. I'm not going to do it because I'm not gonna pass that to my child. We are not the Avengers!" - Devon, mom - aka ❤️⁠

Having compassion for ourselves gives us more compassion for others AND it models the same for our kids.⁠ ⁠
