Ep6. Parenting Path in Action: Six Steps for a Happier Morning Routine

Ever feel like your morning routine is a never-ending battle of nagging, rushing, and meltdowns?

This episode is a little different - it’s what I call a Parenting Path in Action episode. That means I take you step by step through a common parenting challenge and share practical, mindful strategies you can try right away.

Today we’re tackling mornings - mornings can feel like a marathon before the day even begins - but they don’t have to.

I’ll show you how to shift from chaos to calm with six simple, effective strategies.

You’ll Learn:

• Why mornings often feel so chaotic - and how to change that

• Six mindful parenting steps for smoother mornings

• How to adjust your expectations based on your child’s needs

• The power of playfulness (and how I use my French alter-ego, Madeline!)

• A simple challenge to try tomorrow morning for a calmer start.

Why This Episode Matters

When mornings start with connection, not correction, everything feels easier - for you and your kids. This episode gives you realistic, doable strategies to reduce morning stress and build a calmer, more connected start to your day.
