Parenting sensitive and intense kids with Lydia Rex and Lynne Jackson
Manage episode 457263102 series 3521033
I am beyond excited about this week’s episode because I’m joined by two of my absolute favorites in the Christian parenting space—Lydia Rex and Lynne Jackson from Connected Families. Lynne, the co-founder of Connected Families, has deeply shaped my family through their ministry and parent coaching, and I’m thrilled to have her join Lydia for today’s conversation.
Here’s what you’ll hear in today’s episode:
- The challenges, joys, and opportunities in raising kids with big emotions and strong personalities.
- How to identify the strengths hidden within your child’s difficult behaviors.
- Strategies for managing stress cycles and implementing sensory solutions to help your child and yourself.
- The significance of weaving grace and biblical wisdom into your parenting approach.
Together, Lynne and Lydia offer a wealth of wisdom, practical tools, and encouragement to help families navigate the unique challenges of raising sensitive and intense children.
This episode is packed with insights and tools you can apply right away. I believe you’ll walk away encouraged and equipped to parent with grace and intention.
