Armed with her core principal of love, trust, and authenticity, Sarah gets specific in how to understand and move through situational emotions.
Show notes:
Say you’re sorry
Be the adult
No judgment
Hear what they mean (or something more endearing to you…
Know your child individually
Stay true to your guiding principle
We are here for each other. We will all (children and adults) experience a range of emotions while we work to understand each other and strive for peaceful relationships.
Authenticity means having emotions and being honest about them. Communicate with each other in a way that serves everyone’s needs. Children will move through unscathed when guilt and shame are not involved in extreme situational emotions.

Hi Sarah,
it was absolutely fascinating to hear what you were able to accomplish with your parents. I consider yourself very lucky to have such wonderful parents that it was possible to find an arrangement that contributes to each others well-being.
I also found your approach to living with your kids – and how vividly and practically you presented it – awesome. Very moving. Very likeable.
Great stuff, congratulations.
I´m looking forward to no. 14, I am catching up!
