Workshop Description

Conscious parenting is an important element in raising a happy, secure child. When raising a gender-expansive child, conscious parenting becomes even more important in order to help your child be their authentic self. This workshop will cover the basics of conscious parenting, and explore how staying conscious throughout your child's gender journey can be beneficial for all family members. Staying within and trusting yourself and your child can help immensely when dealing with others' reactions, choosing the next step in the journey, and coping with your own emotional responses all while remaining close and connected to your child.
