In this introductory episode, Carrie lays the foundation of her parenting philosophy and explores what it means to knot parent. She unpacks her five Ps for approaching parent development (paradigm, paradox, perspective, process, and practice) and offers a new model for parenting, one rooted in creating healthy relationships that endure. Carrie invites parents to see themselves as growing and evolving alongside the people they're parenting, and to take it all–the joyful moments and the tough days–as opportunities to become more of who we're meant to be.
