Where Have You Been?

Conscious re-parenting is the practice of parenting the child within in the way that works for you. No matter what our journeys have been or what has happened, there comes a point where the parent that we desire is ourselves. Our mom can't fix 'it'. Our dad can't fix 'it'. Only we can. In this episode, Britny explains what conscious re-parenting is, how it works, and how you can begin to give yourself everything you need to journey with peace, love, and most importantly, grace.  Talk on conscious re-parenting begins at 7:25 Be sure to like, review, and subscribe for future episodes.
