EP43: Spacious Parenting with Heather Nardi

Published: March 12, 2018, 9 a.m.

In this episode, we continue our series around the theme of Spacious Parenting. For the month of March I\u2019m\xa0talking with inspiring Mamas who are creating safe spaces for their kids as they navigate challenges they\xa0feel they weren\u2019t prepared for or chart courses they didn\u2019t necessarily expect to take and have since ended up paving the way for others in similar situations.\xa0

Today I\xa0welcome Heather Nardi, wife, Mom of two, author, speaker, and Intuitive Parenting Coach as she shares her\xa0journey to and through motherhood. Heather shares how she knew her daughter, from a very early age, was going to require her to re-think parenting. She talks about how they came about getting an\xa0initial\xa0diagnosis of anxiety for her daughter and how that eventually led her family down the path of what she calls the\xa0\u2018mental health cycle\u2019 and how it was the combination of Heather's intentionality of caring for herself and her daughter\u2019s courage to speak her truth that provided them with a way to step out of the cycle and into a new solution.\xa0Heather shares some\xa0of the wisdom she\u2019s\xa0gained on\xa0the mental health system for adolescents,\xa0and how when they moved from a traditional, medicine approach to a holistic approach, their eyes were opened to some very beautiful spiritual gifts they hadn\u2019t seen before.

Heather shared some about her role as\xa0the\xa0\u201cheart-center of\xa0the family\u201d and\xa0that\xa0when she began tuning into her intuition, her family also shifted and that when their family became a team and began tuning in more to what their children were saying, her whole family began operating at a\xa0higher\xa0vibrational level.\xa0

Heather\xa0believes her daughter has been her greatest teacher and now makes it her mission to share the wisdom she has gained with other parents. I\u2019m presenting another timely topic and Heather offers great insight into how we can approach mental health a little\xa0differently. Join us know as we begin to create space\u2026
