How to Deal with Your ____ So Your Kids Don't Have to

”This beautiful book will give you the inspiration and tools you want to become the connected parent your children need.” —Dr. Shefali Tsabary, author of The Conscious Parent“This book is a lifeline. Honest, practical, and deeply compassionate, Eli Harwood shows us how to heal ourselves so we can raise the next generation with more love and less baggage.”—Kristin Gallant, co-founder of Big Little Feelings “Raising Securely Attached Kids is one of my favorite parenting books to recommend, and Eli does it again. Parenting isn’t just about your child—it’s also about you, and clearing the emotional baggage that gets in the way of connection. This book gives you the insight and tools to get out of your own way and build the secure relationships every child deserves.”—Dr. Mona, pediatrician and creator of PedsDocTalk”Reading this book felt like sitting at the kitchen table with a wise friend. As a therapist and a dad, I trust this book. I found myself underlining lines, pausing to breathe, then trying a small change with my kids the same day. The whole tone invites you to keep showing up without shame. In every chapter you’ll find a next step, a kind reframe, a way to try again. If you’re trying to break cycles and build a sturdier bond with your kids, this is the book I’ll be handing you. Warm, practical, hopeful.”—Matthias Barker, LMHC and founder of Estrangement.com
