In my podcast, my intention is to create a safe place for anyone listening. This is for parents who are struggling, parents who are just looking for some new ways. This podcast is for you if you've had a good day, if you've had a bad day, if you’ve been struggling for a week or years! This is for you if you have one child or many, young children or adult children (grandparents welcome!!)

In this episode I share my journey into motherhood and how it shook me so hard I lost myself and the vision of the mother I thought I would be. In my deepest despair, I found a way out through peaceful parenting. Not only did I find a way to connect with my kids and get more cooperation and connection, I became much more confident mom and found my way back to myself.

Because I’m so passionate about the practice of Peaceful Parenting, I want to share with you what it’s all about and how it can make a difference for you as well!

Robbin is a Certified Parent Coach, author and speaker. She works with parents from all over the world to help them build more connection and find more joy and cooperation to their parenting.

Robbin is a former ‘Angry Mom’ and for over 12 years, Robbin juggled a full-time corporate career while being mom and wife, prior to becoming a Parenting Coach. In her corporate career, Robbin has a background in marketing and public relations, training, and event planning. She understands firsthand how many moms struggle to balance work and family.

It’s because of her struggles as a parent that she found the world of peaceful parenting and has dedicated her life to teaching parents how to build a strong family, so their kids thrive.

Robbin’s work focuses on building and strengthening the parent child relationship so that children grow up with resilience, confidence and strong emotional intelligence. She works with parents to help them understand their own emotions and frustrations in parenting, so they can help build their children’s sense of self without losing themselves in the process!

In October of 2018 Robbin released her first book, “The Yelling Cure – How stress less and get your kids to cooperate without threats & punishments.” Her book is being read by parents all over the world 1000,000 copies sold to date.

Robbin divides her time working with her clients, speaking at events and spending time with her two boys and husband. You can usually find her at a hockey rink or sports field cheering on her boys. Most importantly, Robbin has changed the way she parents and connects with her sons and is dedicated to helping parents find the same joy, connection and cooperation in their families.

From the Podcast:

Active Compassionate Listening:

  1. Listen Intently: What is said in words and non-verbally – put your phone down, no distractions all attention on the person speaking

  2. Listen without judgement: We go through our days with judgement filters – so try to lift those filters so you can really hear the other person. Listen for understanding, not to judge or respond

  3. Listen without interruption: Most of the time when we interrupt, it can come from a good place of wanting to share. We have lots of thoughts when someone is talking but try to make a conscious effort to listen and keep quiet without interrupting.

  4. Listen without comparing: your mind wants to actively go to how you compare but it takes you out of listening

PROTIP- repeat back what you heard!

Thanks for listening!
