Lael Stone on Creating Wellness Through Connection and Community

Lael Stone is a parenting expert, but really she's a humaning expert. I've shared her conversation with the Imperfects about parenting yourself first more than any podcast I have ever listened to.

She has worked as a birth educator, post-natal trauma counsellor, a parenting educator, with teens around sexuality, she created Woodline primary school an innovative new school based on emotional well-being and connection, and now speaks about creating wellness in adults through connection and communication.

Lael is an educator, TEDx speaker, author, mother, a parenting counsellor, funny lady, and in her words, she speaks for the kids.

In this episode we discuss:

  • Creating wellness through connection and community - and what that looks like.

  • There is no perfect parenting, and compassion is one of the most important tools of motherhood.

  • It's important we learn to sit with our kids' big emotions and be present for and with them.

  • Asking the two important questions: What am I making this mean? and, What would I like it to look like? and using our responses to reparent ourselves.

  • The work - as a parent, partner, friend, child - is to be observant and curious.

  • Modelling a better picture of self care for our children.

  • How Lael's children have facilitated her greatest growth.

I am so excited that I get to chat with her, I hope you enjoy it too.
