In the Living Aware Parenting Podcast, I share about Aware Parenting by Aletha Solter, PhD, to support parents to understand the philosophy, practices, and embodiment of this groundbreaking and life-changing approach.

In this episode, I delve into the distinctions between Aware Parenting, created by Aletha Solter PhD, and the Marion Method, which incorporates additional elements and nuances from my own journey.

I clarify terminology specific to Aware Parenting and then to the Marion Method, to maintain accuracy and integrity in the teachings of each.

This episode highlights the importance of deep self-compassion in the learning journey, including about terminology.
