In this powerful episode, Aimee sits down with therapist and pastor Petra Van Weerden to explore how our own stories, childhood trauma, and emotional triggers shape the way we parent. Together they unpack why connection matters more than compliance, why kids need emotional safety to thrive, and how grace and obedience can coexist in Christian parenting.
Petra shares openly about her own journey—balancing professional expertise with real-life parenting—and offers practical tools for building secure, identity-rooted relationships with your children.
They dive into:
- how unresolved childhood trauma affects parenting styles
- why emotional flexibility is essential for healthy family dynamics
- daily practices that strengthen connection
- the power of physical touch and genuine interest
- how our kids read their worth from our reactions
- why both parents and children are already enough
- understanding God’s love through the lens of parenting
A grounding, freeing, deeply human conversation about parenting, identity, connection, mental health, emotional safety, Christian parenting, grace, obedience, and family dynamics.
If you want to raise connected kids—and heal your own story along the way—this episode will meet you where you are.
