“Parents, I love you. I feel you. It is something to navigate these waters of parenting. It’s not for the faint of heart, and we are thrown into it.” – Batya Greenwald

After 27 years as an educator, Batya realized that parents needed more than another behavior chart. They needed a way to understand what their child’s behavior was actually telling them. In this episode, Batya, a transformative parent and life coach with more than 30 years of experience, joins us to explore a powerful idea: behavior really is communication.

We talk about shifting from reacting to responding, holding boundaries while staying connected and empathetic, and staying grounded when our children’s questions about identity, gender, or independence catch us off guard.

Batya also gets honest about the realities of parenting and the toll it can take, reminding us that parenting is meaningful work that asks a lot of us. Listen in.
