Refresher: Mindful Parenting with Kelly Hamilton Part 1

Summer is a busy season for all families, including my own! That's why I thought this would be a great opportunity to refresh our memories with this incredible series, "Mindful Parenting" featuring my special guest: Kelly Hamilton (theconnectedli...) .
Kelly ( / the.kelly.hamilton ) is the Founder and Executive Director of "The Connected Life." She helps people build healthy connections to God, themselves, and others. She is a speaker, trauma-informed life coach, and podcaster. She and her husband serve foster and adoptive families in their home in Kentucky. You can find all her links here! (linktr.ee/thek...)
In this first part of our conversation, we are tackling the definition of "mindfulness" and why it is so important for our parenting, especially when it comes to adoption and foster care where kids are entering our homes with intense emotions. We have to be able to regulate and demonstrate that regulation to these kids, help them build healthy, secure attachments, and be purposeful (not reactive) in our parenting.
Thank you so much for listening!
I'd love to connect with you on Instagram ( / somercolbert ) or send you my monthly newsletter (ahahah.ck.page...) with free resources and first access to episodes and more!
