Parent Your Highly Sensitive Child Like A Ninja

You use intuition all the time without realizing it.

Like when deciding if that plate of food looks appetizing.

Or knowing the coffee you're about to drink will be very hot.

But I see so many parents struggle to trust their intuition with their kids... mainly because they let fear override it.

Your gut tells you something is a good or bad decision.

Then the doubts start creeping in from others' opinions... or the need to be liked... or the need to create convenience... or low self esteem..

220. How To Stop Comparing Yourself To Other Parents

Last week, I attended a coaching event with my mastermind group and it became clear to me why many parents struggle with raising sensitive kids.

One business owner (also a mom) at the event was questioning if she belonged there because she was too focused on comparing her accomplishments to everyone else's online success.

222. Summer Sensory Overload (And How to End It)

If your kid could just handle the regular every day stuff your summer would be much more enjoyable, right?

Maybe it's the splashing sounds at the pool that suddenly overwhelm your child's senses.

Or the booming fireworks that terrify them despite your assurances it will be okay.

Heck, it could even be putting on sunscreen before a fun beach day that sets them off.

In the moment, you rack your brain trying to figure out how to "fix" the situation and talk them down.

You beg, reason, reassure - anything to avoid the public meltdown.

Yet no matter what logical explanations you provide, the emotional storm still rages.
