Zen Supermom: The Mental Fitness Podcast
I'm not a supermom. But I always wanted to be one and have it all: family, career/business that I love, AND the time for myself. But that ambition without proper stress resistance and resilience killed my mom (cancer at 48) and drove me to the edge of burnout twice. Only when I saw the disastrous effects of my anger, stress, and resentment on my little daughter, I knew I had to change... Since then, not only have I healed but I also helped thousands of other women all around the world through trauma-informed therapy and mental fitness training. And I decided to share the most vulnerable and valuable pieces of my and their journey here. Because if we got out of that dark, stuck place of feeling like a terrible mom, YOU CAN DO IT TOO. So choose the episode that speaks to you and tune in!

Ep 180: 3 Most Surprising Things Parenting Coaches Don't Want You to Find Out
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
If parenting scripts were all you need to make your kids listen, chatGPT would have won "The Parent of the Year" award by now...
But if you're struggling with helping your kids listen (without yelling, bribing or threatening them), it's not a lack of info, it's not a parenting problem, and it's not your kids' fault.
Hold your horses, it's not your fault either.
But let's have a look at what's really going on.
In this Zen Supermom Podcast episode, let's unpack:
- What are the 3 things that parenting coaches don't want you to find out
- Why you do NOT want your kids to listen & be obedient 100% always, whenever
- What needs to happen first before you can set healthy boundaries and natural consequences
And if you learn better by not just listening, but watching a well-structured info on the screen, so that you can take notes, then join me over for one of the LIVE Mommy Tantrum Masterclasses.
So that I can also answer any of your "yes, but..." questions and go deeper with this.
Look forward to hearing from you!

Hi, I’m Alena - founder of Zen Supermom and creator of the IDTR method (Intergenerational Developmental Trauma Repatterning).
I work with thoughtful, committed parents who have already tried to understand themselves - and still find themselves reacting under pressure in ways they don’t want.
My work focuses on changing the underlying pattern that formed early, shows up in the nervous system under stress, and gets passed on to the next generation unless addressed as a whole.
