What We Talked About
- The important work of rewiring from generational patterns of toxic upbringing
- Our parenting mindset and how to upgrade it
- What are limiting beliefs and how to transform them
- Lorena’s four pillars of her work
- What are family meetings and how to set them up to have a connection
- The importance of sharing your vision and dreaming together.
- You are your child’s social-emotional coach
Things to Remember
“One generation of emotionally intelligent parents will be able to raise a new generation of humans who can finally heal humanity.”
“Nothing really shifted from me until I upgraded my mindset and my emotional intelligence skills.”
“We have the best intentions, we don’t have the best mindset or the best strategy or skills.”
“We all know who we are when we are in a great state of mind.”
“A lot of the time, our children’s misbehavior comes from lack of skills.”
“The Family Meeting creates the opportunity for a shared vision.”
“Being our children’s social-emotional coach is the most important role we’ll ever have as parents.”
