Early Parenting : Articles : She's Got The Letters, I've Got The Kids

She's got the letters, I've got the kids

I’m jumping on Carrie’s blog wagon because I just can’t not and she invited me in. I’m Bernadette Noll, writer and mother of four. Carrie and I have been collaborating quite a bit lately on a variety of different projects: classes, book groups, workshops, writing, etc. Our work together has felt so incredibly seamless that we’re going to keep it flowing until we implode with the goodness of it all. And Goodness is what we’re calling it. Named for the creative group we’re a part of that has been the inspiration for much of our collaborative efforts and for our desire to live as joyfully as we possibly can.

Part of our desire to keep it going will be played out here, in this blog, in the form of a continued conversation on the subject of parenting, partnering and life in general. In our time together there are many words that come up repeatedly: shifting, connecting, balance, and, perhaps more than any other, conscious parenting.

My first question to Carrie is about the term and the concept of conscious parenting. How do you define it in your practice? And how would you explain it to someone who was familiar with the term but unclear about its meaning?

Thanks for letting me in on this Carrie. I know I’m going to enjoy our back and forth.
