This special episode features a conversation with Holistic Child Psychologist Dr. Nicole Beurkens. Dr. Nicole is a psychologist, nutritionist, educator, and mom who provides parents with super simple, effective research-based strategies to help people get to the root of their children’s anxiety, attention issues, mood, and behavioral challenges. Tune in to hear Katie and Dr. Nicole discuss the many realms of parenting, styles of parenting, and how all systems in a child’s life contribute to their emotional and physical well-being.

~ How we can examine what’s happening around the child and the systems in order to better understand their challenges

~ How the stories we tell ourselves about parenting can have deleterious effects on children and the relationship
