Ep 128: From Walking on Eggshells to Peaceful Parenting with Karen Carlson
In this heartfelt episode, Kim sits down with Karen Carlson, author of the Amazon bestselling book "Peacefully Parenting Adult Children." Karen shares her powerful PEACE framework that helps mothers navigate the shifting dynamics with their grown kids. Together, they explore why perfection doesn't exist in family relationships and how asking simple questions can transform connections. Karen opens up about her own experience caring for her granddaughter during deployment and the wisdom she gained from that two-and-a-half-year-old's words: "Grandma, calm down." This conversation offers hope for moms who feel like they're walking on eggshells, providing practical strategies to move from conflict to connection. Whether you're dealing with one-word texts from your sons or navigating relationships with in-laws, this episode reminds you that peaceful parenting isn't about getting it perfect, it's about staying flexible, asking for what you need, and remembering you don't have to have all the answers.
