As parents, we try so hard to set our kids up for success that we forget sometimes how important failure is. Failure isn't the enemy--quitting is. So what are you willing to let your child fail at? www.letuslearntogether.com/single-post/...

Your voice is SO CRITICAL! Show up. Write. Call. Do it over and over run they cannot ignore you...and bring friends who are constituents. Let them hear another side beyond what the algo tells them. 💪

Now I'm rocking repetitively in the corner AND I need to scrub my brain with bleach.

The universe recently reminded me of this truth: Our job as parents isn't to fix everything for our kids, or take away all their pain. Sometimes the hardest, bestest thing we can do is just sit in the yuck with them so they know they're not alone, and trust that they'll figure things out.

Kristene Geering @kris-geering.bsky.social · 04/03/2025

Your voice means more because of where you are! Keep calling. Show up in person. Don't LET them ignore you--I am begging you! Get like-minded friends to show up with you. You DO have power--PLEASE don't give up!

Parents often ask me: "Does this actually work?" It does—and I’m excited to show you how in my new YouTube series, Conversations with My Daughter. In this episode, we talk about chores, neurodiversity, and…leaf blowers. We had a blast making it, and I hope you love watching! youtu.be/fGEn63L9F2U?...

Exciting news! My daughter is joining me for a new YouTube series: Conversations with My Daughter! She’s grown up with gentle parenting from day one—now she’s sharing what really worked (and what didn’t!). What would you ask her? Drop your questions below! (Pic: our first driverless car ride—yikes!)

I was once asked how I handled a group of children who all wanted attention simultaneously. I ground, open my heart, and say, "I'm holding you all with my eyes," and send out waves of love. To everyone affected by the insanity of the current administration, I'm holding you all with my eyes.

There are days, my friends, where it is perfectly acceptable to EAT YOUR FEELINGS. Today is one of those days. My feelings? Extra crunchy peanut butter, eaten straight out of the jar. On a knife.

No one *should* be above the law. We've seen pretty effing compelling evidence that some folks sure seem to be.

Kristene Geering @kris-geering.bsky.social · 08/02/2025

That's a great question. Therapy can help build tools to manage the overwhelm. We can't take action when we're overwhelmed. So yes, 💯 therapy helps! Put on your oxygen mask first, help others, check that mask often to make sure you're still ok...and keep helping.

You’re already a good parent—but you want to be a great one! I’m taking 3 new clients ready to parent with more confidence, compassion, and connection. Let’s talk. DM me for next steps. I only have room for 3 more 1:1 clients, so if this is calling to you, now’s the time. Let’s do this together.

Hard to discuss chores without $ coming up! But it's more complicated than just connecting work with compensation. More on my thoughts here...and I'd love to hear how your family solves for this! youtu.be/3UoH5s3TXic

Ever have a moment when the universe delivers the exact words you need to hear? This is from a kiddo whose mom is going through cancer treatment. I asked him how she was doing, and he said: "She's pretty tired, but we're all the same amount happy so I think that's good."

When the world around us doesn't feel safe, that's when our kids most need us to create a small, tiny corner for them that does.

Kristene Geering @kris-geering.bsky.social · 28/01/2025

Yeah. 2025, so far at least, is making me think I'm part of a specific demographic. Anyone else a woman over 50 who's fresh-out of f**ks? Who's with me? We can do art or go march or rock back and forth muttering obscenities under our breath in between sips of really good scotch....

Kristene Geering @kris-geering.bsky.social · 27/01/2025

With some tape, a feather, and a stick, you, too can create a "magic wand" to practice deep breathing with your *kids! *Adults can use it, too, and get the exact same benefits in moments of stress.

Kristene Geering @kris-geering.bsky.social · 26/01/2025

Y'all...I don't know about you, but so far this year has been really hard. The air is dripping with stress and strife, and I see parents struggling. So my offering is to share some of the daily prompts and affirmations from my journals.

Kristene Geering @kris-geering.bsky.social · 24/01/2025

Are you: 💛 A smart, loving parent of a young child? 💛 Wondering why all that “gentle parenting” advice works in theory but not in your living room? 💛 Ready for some deep, meaningful work? Drop the word "connection" in the comments or DM me. I'm here to help. #ParentingHelp #GentleParenting
