Perhaps they hate feeling misunderstood or unheard.

Do they resist time deadlines like getting out the door on time for school? Or do they resist chores?

Are you throwing up your hands thinking, “Help! My kids hate all these things!”?

How can you connect with your kids so they feel seen, heard, and understood?

If you tell your children “I love you,” but your actions or responses don’t align with that, do you harm them? What are they thinking if you still shout and get impatient?

How can you create a safe and accepting place in your home for your children to be vulnerable and themselves?

What non-verbal expressions of posture and visual cues do your children send to tell you they are hurting and feel like no one understands them?

My special guest, Tina J. Smith, author of Renewing Our Minds in Love: Integrating Neuroscience and Scripture for Wholeness and Healing, is going to answer all of these questions and more on this episode of the Renewed Mama Podcast.
