172. 2 Key Elements to Resolve Your Parenting Style Differences — And Get United
More ways to listen:
Does it feel like your partner's parenting style is impossibly different than yours?
You really want to get on the same page, but your different approaches to parenting seem to rob you of the unity you're looking for. Maybe you find yourself in a cycle of conflict about parenting and it seems like you'll never find your way out.
We felt the same way for years. Our different styles constantly tripped us up and prevented us from becoming the parenting partners we really wanted to be.
But we've discovered 2 key elements that ended that cycle and united us around parenting. In this episode, we'll tell you exactly what those two elements are.
