Ep 653-Parenting 101 with Holly Swenson, BSN, RN
Are you dealing with parenting issues? In this episode I talk with Holly Swenson. Holly Swenson, BSN, RN, is a mother to four boys, wellness blogger, perpetual student of life, and the author of Stop, Drop, Grow, & Glow, a book steeped in conscious parenting and infused with joy, intention, and wellness. This conversation features Holly Swenson and Linda discussing important topics around self-care, wellness, and intentional parenting. Holly is an author who wrote the book "Stop, Drop, Row and Glow" about maintaining wellness as a busy mom. She shares techniques for moms to take care of themselves physically and mentally to feel fulfilled and radiant. Linda and Holly also explore a framework called the "Five Rights of Parenting," which provides a supportive approach for being fully present with children. Throughout, they offer advice on handling emotions, setting boundaries, allowing independence, and using reflection as a parenting tool. The discussion offers valuable insights for any parents seeking to care for themselves while raising well-adjusted kids. Questions I asked: How did you come up with the title of your book "Stop, Drop, Row and Glow"? What do you recommend for women who feel frumpy and have lost their self? What are some things you do yourself as a mom to make you feel like you start to glow? What would you say the five rights of parenting are? The blueprint for intentional parenting? How can we react with grace to knee jerk reactions when our child has done something that takes our breath away? What is your recommendation when a child between two and three is throwing a temper tantrum because they didn't get what they wanted? Don't you think kids are also testing their boundaries? What is your recommendation for reflecting, reframing, and rising? Where can people find you?   Topics Discussed: Self-care and wellness for busy moms Self-care techniques for moms to feel fulfilled and glow Parenting rights framework of the "Five Rights of Parenting" Parenting techniques for handling children's emotions and behaviors Setting boundaries while allowing independence for teenagers Importance of relaxing and taking a mellow approach to parenting Role of self-reflection and personal growth in parenting  Quotes from the show:  "Protein is going to take you so far."
