We have brought back a Beyond the Bump favourite, Gen Muir (parenting coach, social worker and mum to 4 boys) to help us out with a personal parenting pickle. How do you raise children with BIG personalities without dulling their sparkle? We discuss…

• Jayde shares her own worries about how this dynamic plays out in her household
• Gen dives into how our own childhood may be triggered by our children
• Introverted vs extroverted personalities and how they may exist within a family
• How do we set a firm boundary even when their big personality rebels against it?
• Using communication strategies to help unpack your child’s feelings or behaviours
• Catering to the individual personalities and needs of your family so that we can connect with less resentment
• When a behaviour is actually a call for help
• Have we confused caring about our kids' feelings with thinking we are responsible for fixing them?
• The importance of being kind to yourself as a self-regulation tool
