Autumn Carter

In this heartwarming and insightful episode of our podcast, we dive deep into the essence of "Parenting by Design," a topic that resonates with every parent's journey. Our special guest is Karen Wagnon, an inspiring wife, mom, stepmom, and proud Nina of seven children and eleven grandchildren, brings a wealth of experience to the table. She is the founder of Teaching Our You and The Parenting Blueprint, initiatives that have revolutionized modern parenting approaches.

Her journey into the world of parenting expertise began with a personal struggle, an experience many can relate to – parenting a strong-willed child. The challenges she faced with her son Kyle sparked a determination to find a better way to connect and guide. This quest led her to a transformative moment at a business conference, where Dr. Robert Rohm's insights on personality styles opened her eyes to the dynamics of parenting styles and personality interactions within the family. Her dedication to learning and evolving as a parent laid the foundation for her professional path.

Apart from her professional pursuits, she is a passionate cook who cherishes quality time with her family, making travel and memory-making a big part of her life. These experiences have not only enriched her life but also shaped her perspective on parenting.

One of her key passions is fostering connections with teenagers, especially during times when they seem to push away. She also emphasizes the importance of parenting in harmony with your spouse, underlining the need for a united front in nurturing and guiding children.

Her experiences have equipped her with unique insights into motherhood. She believes that understanding each child's personality can transform parenting, helping parents to adapt their methods and expectations to each child's unique design. This approach is at the heart of her concept of a 'Parenting Blueprint,' a tool she believes can alleviate the guilt and struggles that many parents silently bear.

She challenges the common myth that parents should instinctively know how to raise their children, advocating instead for a more informed and supportive approach to parenting. Self-care and stress reduction are also central themes she addresses, recognizing their crucial role in a parent's life.

As a professional, her ideal clients include parents of tweens and teens seeking to maintain positive relationships through the challenging adolescent years. She also works with parent/teen coaches, helping them to integrate The Parenting Blueprint Certification into their practice, a step she believes will be a game-changer in the parenting coaching industry.

Join us in this episode as we explore these nuanced facets of parenting, guided by the wisdom and experience of a mother and professional who has walked the path and emerged with valuable insights for us all.
