Michele Maurer: Transforming Relationships and Parenting Through Attachment

Parenting is one of life’s greatest challenges, and navigating it while alcohol-reliant adds an even greater burden. That’s why I’m thrilled to welcome Michele Maurer to the 1000 Days Sober Podcast.

 

Michele is a seasoned counsellor and relationship expert with over 30 years of experience helping individuals, couples, and families. Based in Langley, British Columbia, she combines deep insights from Dr Gordon Neufeld’s groundbreaking work on attachment and human development with her compassionate, client-centred approach. As a Parent Consultant and Faculty member of the renowned Neufeld Institute, Michele has made it her mission to transform relationships and foster meaningful connections.

 

In this episode, Michele shares her wisdom on:

•Attachment theory and personal vs. depersonalized attachment

•The cultural obsession with ‘independence’

•Navigating differing parental styles with compassion

•How both parents (or just one) can build attachment with their child

•Processing regret, shame, and mistakes as a parent

•The difference between feelings and emotions—and why it matters

•The Window of Tolerance and emotional regulation

•Why grief, sadness, and crying are vital for emotional health

•What to do if you weren’t raised with a healthy attachment

•How to hold your child through emotional swings

•The importance of play and why men need to cry, too

 

Michele’s practical advice and profound insights make this episode a must-listen for parents, partners, and anyone looking to build deeper, more fulfilling relationships.

Internal Family Systems For Children With Lisa Spiegel | LeeDavyCoaching

Internal Family Systems For Children With Lisa Spiegel | LeeDavyCoaching

 

Today's guest on the 1000 Days Sober Podcast is Lisa Spiegel.

 

Lisa Spiegel has been a psychotherapist for 40 years. She is the co-founder of Soho Parenting, the first parenting/psychotherapy center in New York City. Lisa has her BA from Vassar College and her Master’s in Developmental Psychology from Teachers College, Columbia University. 

 

Lisa is trained in EMDR, Life Force Yoga for therapists, and is a certified IFS therapist. She has provided parent guidance and psychotherapy to children, adolescents and adults in her practice as well as at many New York City preschools. She teaches IFS to therapists around the world. 

 

She is the author of two books, A Mothers’ Circle and Internal Family Systems Therapy with Children. She lives in New York City with her husband and has two adult daughters and four grandchildren.

 

I invited Lisa on the show after reading her book “Internal Family Systems With Children.” Parenting is so hard, and the Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a great framework for parents and children alike to make sense of the complexity of the human condition. Not only is it a great book on the topic of IFS and children, but it contains the best explanations of the IFS model I have found in any IFS books.

 

In this episode we cover:

 

What is IFS

What IFS teaches us

On parents being Parts activated

On body awareness

On self-awareness & presence

On the importance of repair

On self-compassion

On the inner critic

On childhood sexual abuse

On the complexity of the human condition

On the value of curiosity

The incredible challenges of parenting

 

Hope you enjoy!

 

Lee

On Rebuilding Parent-Child Connections

Today's guest on the 1000 Days Sober Podcast is Valerie Vazquez.

 

Valerie is an ordained energy healer and minister living on a beautiful farm in Hawaii. Passionate about holistic wellness and spiritual growth, Valerie combines her deep connection to nature with her healing practices. Alongside her daughter, she co-hosts the podcast "Spiralling Together: A Mother-Daughter Healing Journey," where they share their insights and experiences on the path to healing and self-discovery. 

 

I invited Valerie on the show after seeing her going deep with her 22-year-old daughter Chloe on their podcast. It’s unusual to find a mother-daughter partnership talking so openly about their relationship in public. Valerie was also alcohol reliant at one time, and I was interested in her viewpoint on parenting unconsciously versus consciously.

 

Hope you enjoy!

He emphasizes the importance of self-awareness, responsibility, and the role of internal parts in shaping our responses to external challenges. The episode also explores how living consciously can help parents not only quit alcohol but also lead more fulfilling lives.

Listeners will gain insights into practical strategies for improving relationships with their children and themselves, including the significance of presence, curiosity, rupture and repair, and maintaining integrity. Lee offers guidance on navigating the complexities of parenting while fostering a nurturing environment for both external and internal "children."

Join Lee as he outlines nine core principles that have helped him succeed in his parenting project and learn how these principles can be applied to live a more conscious, self-led life.
