Casey is my daughter. She is one of the 5 kids I had long-term in foster care from age 10. She is so brave and strong and I’m so proud of her for sharing her experience in foster care, how it’s still impacting her, as well as her parenting.    Continuously running away, putting herself in a mental health facility to stay safe and healthy since she couldn’t come “home” to my house. She knew she needed support to move forward in her life.    We discuss getting pregnant at 16 and how that impacted leaving the foster care system, and how the situation for 6 years has impacted us the next 17 and not in a good way.  She is brave and strong and - yes - I cried. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/becoming-parents/message

I teach parents how to listen to their children into existence through emotional reflection. This is a foundational skill that deepens trust, emotional safety, and intimacy. Many parents are not emotionally competent and pass on their incompetency to their children. By learning how to be an emotional coach for your children, you will create deep peace in your family and promote resilience, emotional strength, and emotional intelligence in your children. In his words: I am a lawyer-turned-peacemaker, author, speaker, teacher, and visionary.

She is brave, honest, and strong, and I'm so proud of her willingness to speak out about her miscarriage.    Olivia's Mission: Helping Women feel Seen, Heard, and not Forgotten   The reason WHY she is so passionate about women feeling empowered through parenthood is from her first NOT great experience.  She's shared what it's like to have two kids 18 months apart, toddlers, teething, temper tantrums, sneaking chocolate, wanting to be the best parent, and sometimes feeling like you're failing WHILE going back to school to help other mamas.   She's also been on discussing both of her births and what a difference it was the second time around in the hospital - where she was her own advocate.

We decided to get try for a baby early on in 2009. I got pregnant on our first try. Immediately imagined the life I’d wanted for forever. The baby was lost at 7 weeks. 18 months of unexplained infertility. Clomid, temps, obsession, and every month excitement ending in disappointment. I got pregnant with my firstborn and gave birth in May 2012. We thought we would lose him too in the beginning and the birth was traumatic, but he was perfect. Three babies (bgb), three natural births, completely different experiences with all. Unrecognized ppd with my first. Severe anxiety. I was alone most of the time with a firefighter husband who worked far. I felt alone in much of my parenting journey. It's hard to know someone until you have kids and find that how you were raised was so different. This is even more of a struggle when my husband was gone most of the time and came home to a family and home he didn’t get to control most of the time. I lived far away from my own supportive family and got used to doing things al
