Class with Kate

Show Notes

Your kid isn't being "bad" when it's time to get in the carseat, but your mentality towards it is holding you back. Here I introduce you to the term "childism" and name it as the cause to this issue, and maybe many other parenting issues you may be having! Then I give you a method that will actually work to change this.. every single time. In this video: what childism actually is, how it holds you back, and the tool you NEED (BEND method) to change this for good. What is YOUR carseat struggle? Tell me below!

Refusing to name your emotions doesn't mean they aren't there. Hustle culture tells us to be "logical" rather than emotional, but you can't actually make a change if you avoid your feelings.
