Sometimes Love Isn't Enough: The Parenting Through Challenges Podcast - A practical yet heartfelt podcast for parents who are overwhelmed by unique challenges in parenting.

Join Angie Grandt – Generational Healing Specialist – as she leads you on a journey to rebuild a relationship with your child – you know – the one who you promised to love unconditionally, but who keeps pushing you away and displaying such unsettling behaviors, and now you find you are so easily triggered by all their behaviors and can't seem to find joy in your relationship? Yeah, that relationship.

I know right where you are because I've been there too. With my bio child, I felt like I was doing pretty great! I could handle any challenges thrown my way, kept my cool, and was fully present and engaged in our relationship. As an adoptive mom however, I gave all of my time, my love, and my energy to my son in a desperate attempt to help heal his trauma. It didn't work. In fact, our relationship became so strained, and it showed in behaviors. As our relationships was falling apart, my resent, fear, frustration, and regret grew. I was desperately trying to help, and sacrificing my own happiness and other important relationships along the way. I felt like such a failure as a mom - why couldn't I figure this out?

Sometimes love isn't enough. When it comes to raising kids from trauma and disrupted attachment, the truth is that all too often, you need unconditional love paired with key mindset tools, energetic psychology, and Human Design to help you keep your head in the game – in the trickiest times (aka when your child needs you the MOST!). The same can be true for our bio kids too - sometimes there's a glitch in our ability to connect - we become easily frustrated with their behaviors and as a result feel like we are failing in the parenting game.

This is where a trauma-focused Human Design coach comes in!

What I didn't know then… I had the right tools inside me all along (although I needed a coach to help me see them! As my coach will say, "we can't see the end of our own nose!"). The solution to our relationship wasn't in another book, podcast (yes, I get the irony here!), therapist, teacher, etc. The solution was in me – learning to use strategies like respond vs react and key mindset tools to tap into my strengths, and shift my mindset. I also now see how we are each so uniquely, and perfectly, designed to parent our kids - we have simply forgotten how to tap into our inner guidance to do what's right for us, so we can in turn, do what's right for them.

I am on a mission to help parents to access the right tools to rebuild their relationship, tackle behaviors, and work on building connection again – for one of THE MOST important relationships in their life.
