Parenting in the First 3 Years Podcast
#89 Dealing with the Fears of Parenting
with Amy Weber
How can parents effectively balance the wisdom of their own upbringing with the need to forge a distinct, individualized parenting approach that caters to their children’s unique needs and personalities?
In this episode, Amy Weber, a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Certified Parent Coach joins me as we talk about the complexities of parenting and how individuals can break away from the cycles of the way they were raised to find their own unique parenting styles. With the abundance of information available from various sources like books, family advice, and pediatricians, it can be challenging for parents to discern what’s best for their family.
Join us as we explore practical strategies and insights on how to navigate through the plethora of parenting advice and create a parenting approach that feels right for you and your children.

One last thing.
I spend time each morning in meditation and would love to pray for you, your child or whatever’s on your heart. Simply email me and let me know how to pray. It can be as simple as just your name or you can give a short explanation. Either way you can trust that I will do it. No strings attached, no follow up or anything, just a quiet way for me to support you in your parenting journey. Because no one needs to feel alone. 🧡
