EP04: Transcending Fear

Knot Parenting with Carrie Contey, PhD

Parenting can feel very high stakes. There can be so much gripping and anxiety to get it right. We can become fixated on doing enough and comparing ourselves to others. And, with no shortage of parenting advice everywhere we turn, it’s no wonder that parents can often feel lost, afraid, and overwhelmed. In this episode, Carrie focuses on how we can change our mindset about our role and our approach so that we can feel less pressure and more confidence. By integrating tools such as self-awareness, self-resourcing, and appreciation, we can begin to stand more firmly in our role and feel less attached to the idea of “doing it right.”
