  • Summary

  • Are you tired of power struggles, whining, and tantrums with your kids? Does it seem no matter what you do, they just. won't. LISTEN?!

    Friend, you are not alone. I have been there. And I can't wait to share with you the pathway to more joy and ease, getting kids to listen in a way that is still loving, kind and connected.

    Welcome to Sustainable Parenting.

    Here we bridge the gap between overly gentle parenting and overly harsh discipline, so you can parent with kindness and firmness at the same time.

    In this podcast, we share simple transformational shifts, so you can finally be the calm, confident parent you always dreamed you'd be.

    With my master’s degree in counseling, being a mom of 2 young kids, and 12 years of experience coaching and mentoring parents internationally, I have found the secrets to being a calm confident parent.

    These 15 min. episodes will drop each Wednesday and boil down parenting theory and psychology into bite-size strategies that are easy to understand and implement, and for that reason...finally feel sustainable.

Quick and Easy Tips

I can't recommend more the simple things Flora suggests in these podcasts, and it's so easy to listen to. Everyone has 10-15min in their day! But more so, her courses are really where you can get the tools to feel less stressed and more confident. you have to remember that changing how you respond takes time, and you only need to get it right 30% of the time.

Great tools

The podcast left me wanting more tips and tricks to use with my kids. She gave wonderful, easy to follow tools to use to get respect rom my kids. I loved the idea of planning out in advance how things will go since my kids respond better when there is a plan. I loved the idea of the interrupting hand.
