Let’s be real… Choosing to whisper over yelling is HARD work. It’s just not as simple as remembering to speak softly. It’s about BEING ABLE to access that softness when everything inside you is screaming. And THAT is what nobody tells you… Calm communication isn’t a parenting technique, it’s a SKILL. And most of us weren’t taught this skill growing up. We didn’t have parents that modeled it for us. In fact, our parents modeled the exact opposite with their yelling and roughness… and here we are.
