Ep #114 We Can Work It Out: Strategies for Problem-Solving in Parenting
Manage episode 460950686 series 3515194
If you’ve ever felt stuck in a loop of parenting problems that never seem to go away, this episode is for you. Today, I’m sharing a perspective shift that will change how you approach challenges—not just in parenting but in every area of your life.
We’re breaking down The STEAR Framework (it’s a game-changer!) and diving deep into how our thoughts shape our experience of problems. I’m also getting personal, sharing reflections from my family’s multi-month adventure abroad and how one emotional moment with my daughter, Becca, brought it all into focus.
What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
- The Truth About Problems: Why most problems aren’t what you think they are—and how this shift can change everything.
- The STEAR Framework in Action: How to consciously approach challenges so you can grow and connect more deeply with your kids.
- Tools for Reflection: How to use your past year (or even your camera roll!) to uncover what worked, what didn’t, and what to focus on in 2025.
- From Chaos to Calm: Practical strategies to handle common parenting “problems” like messy rooms, tantrums, or sibling squabbles with confidence.
Why This Episode Matters
Problems aren’t just roadblocks; they’re opportunities for growth—yours and your child’s. Whether it’s morning chaos or eye rolls at the dinner table, you’ll walk away from this episode with a fresh perspective and tools to redefine what’s possible in your parenting journey.
Take Action This Week:
- List Your Problems: Write down all the “problems” in your parenting life.
- Separate Facts from Thoughts: Use the STEAR framework to simplify and reframe these challenges.
- Reflect on 2024: What worked, what didn’t, and what do you want to focus on in 2025?
Key Takeaways:
- Problems are neutral. It’s not the situation but your thoughts about it that create frustration.
- Connection is the goal. Solving problems consciously strengthens your bond with your kids and sets the stage for a more connected family life.
- Every challenge is an opportunity. Whether it’s a tantrum or a missed curfew, there’s a chance to grow—for both you and your kids.
Resources Mentioned:
- The STEAR Framework: A step-by-step tool to shift your perspective on problems.
- Follow me on Instagram @connectmethodparenting to see Becca’s incredible dance compilation reel!
- Check out my website (https://connectmethodparenting.com) to find out when we're starting the next PIVOT round, which will dive deeper into reflection and problem-solving strategies for your best parenting year yet.
Let’s make 2025 the year we approach parenting with curiosity, compassion, and connection. Remember, you’re doing so much better than you think you are. Now go connect your face off with your kids, and let’s tackle those “problems” together.
