“Family comes first.’

‘Girls don’t answer back.’

‘Don’t be awkward.’

How about, “It’s ok not to be hugged or kissed by (insert family member’s name)?”

Girls should know that they’ve a right to set boundaries and know what that looks and feels like.

That’s what being a courageous parent will help you do.

It will help you support your little girl in setting healthy boundaries around her body.

Today’s episode highlights that it doesn't matter what age your kid is, you can speak up for them until they're old enough to speak up for themselves.

In today’s episode you’ll learn:

  • What The Family Cringe Crusher is and how to use it.
  • How to recognise your own boundaries.
  • How to support your kid’s body autonomy around extended family members.

Knowing what to do is one thing but do you have the ability to sit with the intense emotions of others and stay centred and grounded at the same time?

If not, and you would like support, let me know here.

Until next episode,
