[E221] Parenting as a Second Language
Update: 2025-09-23
Description
In this episode of the Empowered to Connect Podcast, Jesse, Tona and Becca unpack a powerful analogy from Dr. Becky (@drbeckyatgoodinside), the idea that parenting differently than how we were parented isn’t instinctual, it’s intentional. We explore what it means to rewire our responses, embrace connection when it feels unnatural, and do the deep, courageous work of parenting with awareness and healing. If it’s ever felt like you’re “doing it wrong” because it doesn’t come naturally, take a listen.
