  Ep. 109 Reparenting (Part 1): It's Not Really Gaslighting (But It Still Triggers Us) 09.06.2026 33min

  Your child is not trying to manipulate you. But wow, does it feel like it sometimes! In this episode, we get real about a specific behavior that triggers both of us, and honestly? We are still figuring out how to handle it in the moment. This is one of those conversations where we are not coming to you with all the answers. We are coming to you with the vulnerable truth, because sometimes the most helpful thing is knowing you are not the only one white knuckling it through a Tuesday afternoon.----If you have questions, stories, or topics you’d like us to talk through, you can reach out to us at:[email protected] can also follow along on social at @fiercelygentleparenting⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fiercelygentleparenting.com⁠⁠⁠

  That moment when your child does something and you feel your whole body react like it is something much bigger?

  Ep. 107 Why Repair Is One of the Most Important Parenting Tools 12.05.2026 22min

  Repair does not just fix a hard moment. It strengthens something. In this episode, we dig into why coming back after a rupture is one of the most powerful things you can do as a parent, and what it actually teaches your child about relationships, trust, and emotional safety. Most of us never saw this modeled growing up, which means we are learning it in real time while also trying to teach it. If repair has ever felt awkward, forced, or like you just do not know where to start, this episode will change that.----If you have questions, stories, or topics you’d like us to talk through, you can reach out to us at:[email protected] can also follow along on social at @fiercelygentleparenting⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fiercelygentleparenting.com⁠⁠⁠

  Ep. 106 You Had a Hard Parenting Moment. Now What? 05.05.2026 24min

  It happened. You lost your cool, you said something you did not mean, or you handled it in a way that did not reflect the parent you are trying to be. In this episode, we talk about what to do after the hard moments, because how you repair matters just as much as how you respond in the first place. Rupture and repair is not a sign that you are failing at gentle parenting. It is actually at the heart of it. This one is for every parent who has ever walked away from a moment wishing they could do it over.----If you have questions, stories, or topics you’d like us to talk through, you can reach out to us at:[email protected] can also follow along on social at @fiercelygentleparenting⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fiercelygentleparenting.com⁠⁠

  Ep. 105 What Positive Discipline Looks Like 28.04.2026 17min

  You know discipline does not have to look like punishment. But what does it actually look like in real life? In this episode, we get practical, walking through what positive discipline looks like in the everyday moments that tend to push every parent to their edge. From power struggles to big emotions to the same behavior happening for the fifth time today, this is the episode where the philosophy meets the reality. ----If you have questions, stories, or topics you’d like us to talk through, you can reach out to us at:[email protected] can also follow along on social at @fiercelygentleparenting⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠fiercelygentleparenting.com⁠

  Ep. 104 Discipline Does Not Have to Look Like Punishment 21.04.2026 21min

  Most of us grew up believing that discipline and punishment were the same thing. In this episode, we unpack why that is not true, and what discipline actually looks like when it is rooted in connection rather than fear. Setting limits as a parent does not have to mean using fear-based tactics such as yelling, spanking, or using threats or other forms of harsh punishment. If you have ever wondered how to handle the hard moments without resorting to the parenting you swore you would never repeat, this episode is for you.----If you have questions, stories, or topics you’d like us to talk through, you can reach out to us at:[email protected] can also follow along on social at @fiercelygentleparenting⁠⁠⁠⁠fiercelygentleparenting.com⁠

  Gentle parenting takes guts. In this episode, we dig into what it really means to parent with both fierceness and gentleness at the same time, and why those two things are not opposites. Being fiercely gentle means knowing your values, holding your ground, and choosing connection even when it is hard. This is the heart of everything this podcast stands for, and this conversation will leave you feeling grounded, inspired, and ready to show up for your kids in a whole new way.----If you have questions, stories, or topics you’d like us to talk through, you can reach out to us at:[email protected] can also follow along on social at @fiercelygentleparenting⁠⁠⁠fiercelygentleparenting.com⁠

  If you have ever been told that gentle parenting means no boundaries, no discipline, or just letting kids do whatever they want, this episode is for you.
