S1 Ep 14: Why Scripts Fail—and the Parenting Process That Works
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this week’s episode of The Nurture Network, we explore why parenting scripts—that perfect response you rehearse in your head—rarely work. Instead, what transforms behavior is a process: a thoughtful approach rooted in values, presence, and emotional regulation.
We dive into:
• The difference between a scripted reaction and a values‑based process
• Why rehearsed lines fail when your emotional regulation is low
• How to create your own “parenting process”—step by step, value driven
• Real-life examples where processes bring clarity, consistency, and confidence
• How to shift from performing for your child to leading with intention
If you’ve ever snapped at bedtime despite knowing what to say—or exhausted yourself trying to say the “right thing”—this episode is for you. Because great parenting isn’t about saying the perfect words. It’s about having a calm, grounded map to guide you in real time—even in the middle of the chaos.
Listen to The Nurture Network wherever you get your podcasts—this one’s going to change how you lead in parenting.
