The Transformative Power of Attachment Parenting: How to Become the Calm, Confident Leader Your Kids NeedIn this episode of The Parenting Wisdom Podcast, Efrat Amira sits down with parenting coach and therapist Todd Sarner, founder of Transformative Parenting, to explore what it truly means to parent with both connection and leadership.Drawing on the wisdom of attachment science and the teachings of Dr. Gordon Neufeld (Hold On to Your Kids), Todd shares how modern parents can reclaim their natural authority—not through control or punishment, but through calm, confident guidance that meets children’s deepest need: secure attachment.Together, we unpack the myths around gentle parenting, discuss why boundaries are an act of love, and explore the essential shift from reactive “whack-a-mole” parenting to creating a strong family culture built on belonging, responsibility, and trust.💡 In This Episode, You’ll Learn:What attachment parenting really means (and what it’s not)Why leadership—not control—is what children are wired to followHow to set clear, loving boundaries without shame or fearThe three realms of parenting: connection, environment, and disciplineWhy kids need responsibility and contribution to feel they belongHow to build systems and family rituals that support harmony and growthWhat happens when parents don’t lead—and where kids turn instead🧭 Key Quotes:“Attachment is an instinct. When you understand that, it radically changes your approach to parenting.” – Todd Sarner“Boundaries aren’t punishment—they’re leadership.”“If you don’t lead, your child will look for leadership elsewhere.”🪴 Takeaway:Parenting isn’t about perfection—it’s about presence, connection, and the willingness to grow alongside your child. When you lead with both heart and structure, you become the calm, trusted guide your children naturally want to follow.🔗 Resources Mentioned:Transformative ParentingTransformative Parenting Youtube ChannelHold On to Your Kids — Dr. Gordon Neufeld & Gabor MatéSimplicity Parenting — Kim John PayneGet my free guide "From Chaos to Calm": 3 Powerful Mindset Shifts to Start Embodying Your Authority Today at efratamira.com/calmparent." 👉 Eliminate Yelling And Stess At Home.
