08/03/23 • 40 min
On this weeks episode I am super duper excited about my first "international" guest, we dive deep into what it means to be a connected, conscious parent. Parenting is tough that is for sure, and we all need as much support and love as possible to be the best parents we can be for our children. Talking about boundaries, discipline without damage and Parenting Right from the start.
Dr. Vanessa Lapointe @Drvanessalapointe a mum, parenting educator, best-selling author, international speaker.
She holds a doctoral degree in psychology, and practiced as a psychologist for nearly 20 years, before devoting her full-time energy to connecting with parents and other “big people” around the globe in 2023.
Founder of The North Star Developmental Clinic, Dr. Vanessa has long been supporting families and children in her developmental clinic alongside her team and has previous experience in community mental health and the school system. Dr. Vanessa is known for bringing a sense of nurturing understanding and humanity to all of her work. Her passion is in walking alongside parents, teachers, care providers, and other big people to really see the world through the child’s eyes. She believes that if we can do this, we are beautifully positioned to grow up our children in the best possible way.
