SIGN UP FOR THE PLAY PANDEMIC CHALLENGE

 


Present-ish → Connected

Connect with your child I have been homeschooling four kids, even since before corona was a thing – and do you know the main complaint they have had?

“You don’t spend enough time with me, mom.” – Child I’ve Been With 24/7 🤯

… wha? I am with them almost all day everyday!

But here’s the thing, as we all know – there’s being with someone and then there’s BEING with someone.

When we’re distracted by:

  • our to-do list📝
  • too busy picking up after them🧺
  • worrying about what’s going on in the world🌎
  • glued to our phones📱(I’ll be the first to raise my hand🙋)

We can literally be with them all day, but figuratively be far far away. 

And they feel it.

When kids haven’t received any of our undivided attention – they continuously seek it in more and more aggravating ways by acting out and getting even clingier.

However, it’s both unrealistic and undesirable for you to be focusing your attention solely on your kids. It’s impossible. And even if it were, it would lead to major burn out for you and create a total dependency in them.

Connect With Your Child Through Presence During Caregiving Times

I want to share a tip that has helped me immensely. I learned it from Magda Gerber, the founder of RIE. She explained that we should give our undivided attention during caregiving times:

  • bathing🛁
  • feeding🥣
  • dressing👟
  • changing diapers🚼
  • wiping noses🤧
  • putting to bed🛏
  • getting up in the morning🌤
  • _____________

So, when you’re wiping a tush?🧻 Really be there for it. When you’re sitting round the table to eat?🍴Put the phone away.

CHALLENGE

I am going to put my phone away and really look into my Kiddo’s eyes today, during these caregiving times:

1.   
 
2. 
 
3. 

Repeat after me: “It’s O̶K̶ ̶n̶o̶t̶ ̶t̶o̶ IMPOSSIBLE to be fully present with my kids all day.”

Presence During Caregiving Times will liberate you from being present-ish all day long – to filling your kids’ buckets up and giving you all some space to then part ways when necessary too.

☝️Take a screen shot & fill in when you’ll give your presence and attention and share it! 📲 #playpandemic @parentingjunkie

Now look, we’re all tired of the over-inflated results that course creators are flaunting on the interwebs. We’re all suspicious of online courses actually delivering on all their bloated promises. So if you think, “Bah, just another expensive course I don’t need” - I feel you, I do. I take the same wary approach when buying new programs. ⁣

But that’s why I want to share real human beings from all walks of life who have actually been through this course and received meaningful and priceless renewals in their relationships. ⁣

Like Chelsea, who remarked: “When I joined Parent in Love, I was ready to give up on my marriage. Today, my marriage has had a complete overhaul! It's practically a different marriage altogether.”⁣

Or Tanya, who reported: "This course has ABSOLUTELY TRANSFORMED our marriage, our family life, and my own personal growth journey! We still fight, but the fights are fewer and we tend to make up quicker and in front of the kids now!"⁣

And here's what Jonna said: "I have tools that give me hope and I know how to start resolving our conflicts. I have started to notice how my own shift of thoughts changes the whole atmosphere in our home, not only between me and my hubby but with the kids also."⁣

Check out my IGTV for more amazing success stories.⁣

Parent In Love is a 6-month deep-dive online program that will transform your marriage from the inside out. ⁣

Ever find yourself waiting for your partner to change? Sometimes, it feels easier alone. ⁣

As much as you want and need the support - I know sometimes it can just feel easier to run your home on your own. ⁣

No one criticizing. ⁣
No one judging. ⁣
No one commenting. ⁣
No one watching. ⁣
No one adding to your to-do list with their needs.⁣
No one irritating you.⁣

Ah. Bliss. ⁣

But did you ever have these thoughts only to then think: "Yikes! That's not really what I want, is it? What's wrong with me? What's wrong with us!?"⁣

And what has waiting for your partner to change gotten you so far? ⁣

Stop waiting... ⁣

You deserve to have a happy marriage, and your kids deserve to have happy parents. ⁣

And don't wait on your partner, because the Parent In Love program is DESIGNED to be done alone - so that YOU can focus on what YOU can change: yourself.⁣

Your partner will necessarily be affected by the changes you make - because that's how relationships work, we're intertwined like that. ⁣

So TAKE A BREAK trying to change your partner right now, and finally, start to see some real transformation. ⁣

Psst... Your partner doesn't even have to KNOW you're doing the program - not that I'm suggesting you hide this from them, especially if you two are used to discussing financial investments you make - but I DO want you to know that many members have gone through Parent In Love WITHOUT letting their partners know about it. ⁣

And what happened? ⁣

Well, typically their partner would suddenly begin to NOTICE a profound (wonderful!) shift in their relationship and wonder "what's going on?!" ⁣

If you really want to take this program but you're struggling to work through their concerns, especially about the $ investment, I've provided scripts to help you have those important conversations with confidence. ⁣
