Hey hey, friends! It’s Andee, and today’s episode is a little different—think of it like a sneak peek, a love note, and a call to reimagine how you parent—all wrapped into one.

After a 5-hour IKEA run...someone please tell me why that place is both magical and exhausting. I decided to release this episode instead of what I had originally planned. I felt a tug to share this 10-minute excerpt from the Listening Lab workshop I taught earlier this week.

Why? Because the feedback I got after teaching it made me stop in my tracks. This was a deep dive into the real, research-backed heart of Connect Method Parenting - attachment theory, emotional maturity, and how to lead with strength and softness.

In this little preview, you’ll hear why:

• Togetherness is more essential than food and water (for real—it’s neuroscience, not fluff),
• Why you’re a gardener, not a sculptor (so much freedom here!), and
• What it really means to choose closeness in the chaos (even when they’re tantrum-ing at max volume).

If you’ve ever wondered what’s underneath the Connect Method Parenting approach—or why your child’s behavior is more about connection than correction—this is your sign to listen in.

And if this snippet resonates, the full workshop is packed with even more goodness. You can grab it here: https://cmp.works/listen

Wishing you sunshine, secure attachment, and at least one moment of peace today. You’ve got this, and I’m cheering you on.

xo, Andee
