3 in 30 - Takeaways For Moms
Navigating Parenting Triggers with Nat Vikitsreth

Lover of practical ideas, conversations with kindred spirits, and my two wild children who keep life interesting.

I combined all of these passions when I created 3 in 30, a podcast for moms who want doable takeaways to try with their families - strategies to help us manage the madness and maximize the magic of motherhood.

In this episode, we are going to be discussing how to navigate our parenting triggers. A trigger in parenting is a small action, often done by our children, that releases a spring within us the parent and sets off a reaction. This reaction can sometimes feel like it is exploding out of us against our will, much like a real life trigger was pulled inside of us. So what do we do with our internal triggers? Can we tame them? Get rid of them altogether? Are triggers always a bad thing, or do they sometimes protect us?

Decolonized LGBTQ Parenting: Finding Balance in an Anti Queer World

The show all about family; but with gay! Queer mom, Jaimie Kelton, humorously goes in-depth with weekly LGBTQIA+ guests about their families; how they made them, and how they show up in a world that wasn't necessarily designed for them. The mission is to normalize, elevate and celebrate, while confirming that we're just like other parents, trying not to yell at our kids when they still haven't put their shoes on and we're 25 minutes late for school. The end result is a compelling podcast that amusingly explores the age-old question: what's it like to live as an LGBTQ family in a world built for the straights?

Nat Vikitsreth is a licensed clinical psychotherapist and child development specialist, and host of the Come Back to Care Podcast. She shares her personal journey, growing up in Bangkok, Thailand, and embracing her identity as a trans woman. Nat's work goes beyond therapy; she offers vital support to the queer community by being the "trans auntie of the village, loving up on other parents, especially queer parents." She discusses the importance of self-awareness and being present with our children. Her message reminds parents (especially Jaimie 😜) to give themselves grace as they navigate the complexities of parenting.
