Скачать или смотреть Conscious Parenting Starts With You: Regulate First, React Less

So many parents want to raise connected, emotionally resilient kids, but find themselves reacting from stress, shame, or survival instead.

In this episode of The Connection Podcast, Lauren Dry speaks with Conscious Parenting Coach and Sleep Specialist Donna Moala about how to move from reactivity to regulation. Drawing from her training and real-life experience raising three teenage daughters, Donna shares how healing yourself first becomes the most powerful parenting tool you’ll ever use.

You’ll hear us explore:

How generational patterns shape the way we parent, even when we “know better”
Why emotional safety matters more than behaviour management
What conscious parenting really looks like in moments of stress and rupture
How to set loving boundaries without shame or control
Why regulating yourself is the most effective way to raise resilient kids

Whether you're raising young children or parenting teens, this conversation offers both insight and compassion for the moments that matter most.
