You’re not failing. You’re parenting in a world that never taught you how to pause, listen, and respond with intention.
This free Saturday morning webinar is for parents who want more than tips; they want tools that help in real-time, with real kids.
Whether your child is neurodivergent, highly sensitive, defiant, anxious, or just completely overwhelmed by modern life, this session will help you understand what’s underneath the behaviour, and what to do next.
You’ll Learn:
- What to say when your child melts down
- How to respond when you feel triggered
- Why behaviour is communication (not manipulation)
- How to co-regulate without losing control
- Practical scripts, emotional resets, and self-reflection tools you can start using immediately
What Makes This Different?
This is not a one-size-fits-all parenting formula. It’s a live, grounded walkthrough of tools from the Mindful Parenting Academy — created by Leon van Niekerk, a behavioural coach, CBT/NLP practitioner, and neurodivergent parent with a deep love for evidence-based parenting that actually works.
