@vickyweberbooks Yes! And trying to write about parenting in July when small kids are home is a special form of psychological torture..... Although I do find Bluey weirdly inspirational. Or maybe aspirational.

I really enjoyed doing this interview! @MariannePestana is an incredible interviewer and I think this is one of the best conversations I've had about the book. I can't wait to hear what you think of this interview.

Are your childhood wounds shaping how you parent today, without you even realizing it? Dr. Robyn Koslowitz shares how trauma can silently influence parenting and how to break generational cycles with compassion, connection, and healing. Tune in Thursday, July 3rd at 1pm PT, 4 pm ET for an inspiring discussion with Robyn Koslowitz, PhD, on her new book Post-Traumatic Parenting: Break the Cycle and Become the Parent You Always Wanted to Be.

AI parenting tools are booming—but can ChatGPT raise a child?

I spoke with @HenryChandonnet for @FastCompany about the pros, cons, & trauma-informed perspective.

AI is helpful—but can’t replace attunement.

They ARE creepy. And 🤑💸💸.
But what are kids trying to accomplish when they collect them?
How should we talk to our kids about them?
What's the hidden opportunity here?

#MyXAnniversary
5 years ago, I started this "I want to write a book and share the concepts of Post-Traumatic Parenting with the world." Went to book conferences and was told "You need a platform..." It was so scary to start, but glad I did!

[dr.koslowitzpsychology @DrKoslowitz]

It's finally here - This is my official book cover reveal!
The red heart on the cover is held together by a diaper pin—for a reason.

Because parenting while healing is exactly that: mending a wounded heart while showing up for someone else’s.

This book is from my heart to yours. 💔➝❤️‍🩹

Post-Traumatic Parenting can be a lonely journey. My hope is that this book becomes your companion—and helps turn every cycle breaker into a cycle maker.

So thrilled (and a little overwhelmed!) to finally share this cover—and this message—with the world. 📖✨

Acceptance + Protest = Cycle Breakers

This is what cycle breakers are made of & how they turn generational trauma into generational healing.

The feedback formula is incredibly effective and should be used more often to provide POSITIVE feedback to our kids. This is how we reinforce desired behaviors in a healthy and effective way.

Finding the balance between staying informed and protecting our mental health is a constant battle- especially as parents who have littles to take care of and be “ok” for.

With the scary stories that have been so present in the news lately- I thought this one would be a helpful reminder 💔😢

When you talk to your kids honestly, openly, and age-appropriately, you comfort your own inner child too ❤️‍🩹

PSA: Repeatedly shaming & blaming kids simply for doing things totally in line with their current developmental stage is a form of scapegoating & can warp their sense of self for years to come.

We need all 3 in different doses:
❤️‍🩹Self-care needs vary but you should make time for it at least weekly
❤️‍🩹Self-maintenance is needed daily & in many forms
❤️‍🩹Anesthesia may be needed for 15 minutes to transition from a stressful situation to a more restful and joyful one

7/ That's why it's crucial we learnt to protect it, so we can share our calm, and parent according to our values.
