Helped me parent without losing my cool

This audiobook honestly helped me stop snapping at my kid when I’m overwhelmed. I didn’t expect to get such clear takeaways I could actually use that same day. It's not preachy—just real talk that made me rethink how I react. Now I notice little things that build trust between us. Totally shifted how I show up as a parent.

Good stuff!

Raising kids is not easy. I really appreciate the re-frames of mind that this book presents. These tips are good prompts to change what you are hearing and seeing. When a child is presenting what looks like disrespect, it's an opportunity to set healthy boundaries and show them you love them at the same time.
