In this episode, Haylie Pomroy is joined by Kiva Schuler, founder and CEO of the Jai Institute for Parenting and author of The Peaceful Parenting (R)evolution, to explore how intentional parenting starts with taking care of yourself first.
Kiva explains why parents need support just as much as elite athletes do, how modeling healthy habits at home builds trust with children, and the difference between teaching kids responsibility and unintentionally parentifying them.
Together, they discuss how family meals and simple daily rituals build real connection in a disconnected, screen-filled world, and how to navigate unhealthy food culture, from birthday parties to school snack lists, without controlling or restricting a child's relationship with food.
Discover why peaceful parenting is about who you are more than what you do, and how supporting yourself as a parent may be the most powerful thing you can do for your child's health, here on Fast Metabolism Matters.

Kiva Schuler is the Founder and CEO of the Jai Institute for Parenting, an organization that has trained over 1000 parenting coaches globally. She is also the author of the groundbreaking book The Peaceful Parenting (R)evolution: Changing the World by Changing How We Parent, which turns traditional parenting "techniques" on their heads with a parent-centric approach instead of behavior modification.
Her passion for parenting stemmed from her own childhood experiences of neglect and trauma. Like many of her generation, she had a front-row seat to witnessing what she did not want for her own children. The Jai Institute is the fulfillment of a promise that she made to herself when she was 16 years old that when she had children of her own, she would learn to parent them with compassion, consistency, and communication. Allowing others to carry the torch of a transformational movement for parents has created ripples of impact around the world.
