Robyn Gobbel

Sometimes it feels like our kids have a hole in the bottom of their heart.  No matter how much love and attention is put in, it seems like it’s never ever enough.  

These kids cannot hold onto the feeling of presence and connection.  When it’s there, it’s great.  When it’s not, it’s like it was never there to begin with and they’ll never get it again.  They don’t have a string that connects them to all the moments of connection they’ve had in the past and all the moments they will have in the future.  

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • What whining and clinging behavior means
  • Why some kids seem like a bottomless pit of needs
  • Steps to fill your child’s connection cup
