In this episode of Unlock Your Child’s Full Potential, we explore a topic that’s often overlooked in the parenting world: the power of a mother’s imagination.

Today’s guest is Melissa Llarena—imagination coach, mom of three boys, and author of Fertile Imagination. Through her work and personal story, Melissa challenges the belief that motherhood requires putting your dreams on hold. Instead, she shares why reclaiming your creativity can be a game-changer—not just for you, but for your kids too.

In our conversation we discuss:

• Why so many moms lose touch with their creativity—and how to find it again
• How imagination can help you navigate everyday parenting challenges
• What impostor syndrome looks like in motherhood and how to move through it
• Practical ways to integrate personal goals into a busy family life
• How to model resilience and dream-chasing for your kids in real, relatable ways
  
  

Melissa brings humor, honesty, and incredibly actionable insights to the table. Whether you’re feeling stuck, uninspired, or just ready to breathe new life into your daily routine, this episode will leave you encouraged and ready to reconnect with your own dreams.

In this episode of Unlock Your Child’s Full Potential, we’re diving into the world of attachment styles—what they are, how they form in early childhood, and why they matter for both parenting and romantic relationships. Our guest, Bev Mitelman, breaks down the four main attachment styles (secure, anxious, avoidant, and fearful avoidant) and helps us understand how these patterns impact the way we connect with our kids and our partners.

We explore how your attachment style is shaped between ages 0–5, how to identify your own style, and whether it can change over time. Bev shares practical, compassionate tools for healing insecure attachment, improving emotional safety in relationships, and breaking generational patterns.

Whether you're working on building a secure attachment with your child, improving communication with your partner, or gaining clarity about your emotional triggers, this episode offers insight and actionable steps to support you on that journey.
