This Workshop Will Not Make You A Perfect Parent
- by XpatAthens
- Monday, 12 October 2026
A live, interactive parenting workshop in Athens or online
Parenting is not about being perfect. It is about understanding your own reactions, recognising what happens in your nervous system and finding your way back to connection without giving up healthy boundaries.
Led by Maggie Pouplis, this interactive 90-minute workshop, part of her PARENT. HUMAN. parent programmes, offers an introduction to the nervous system behind parenting reactions and practical ways to respond with greater awareness, regulation and responsibility.
Through four key steps — notice, understand, hold the limit and return — participants will explore how to recognise their own activation, better understand difficult moments and approach challenging interactions with their children differently.
Because understanding your child's feelings matters, but so does understanding your own.
For parents who wish to explore these practices in greater depth, a 12-week Parent Circle is also available. This guided parent-coaching programme includes weekly 60-minute meetings, a small group of up to 10 participants, lifetime access to English-language JAI parent learning materials and a closing eBook created for the programme. Sessions are available in person or online.
Neither option promises perfect parenting. Both offer space to develop a more regulated, responsible approach to family life.
The 12-week programme is a parent-coaching experience, not professional training or therapy.
