The Catholic Coaching Podcast
When we encountered New Age philosophies in Life Coaching that ran counter to our Christian beliefs, we decided to take the best practices of Life Coaching and infuse them with the rich traditions of our Catholic Faith. We're Matt and Erin Ingold, Catholic coaches and the founders of Metanoia Catholic, our Catholic Life Coaching Company. Join us as we share practical coaching tips to being transformed by the renewing of your mind so that you can be free to discover and choose your greatest calling in life.

239. Why Phlegmatic Parents Struggle With Strong-Willed Kids (And What to Do)
What happens when a naturally peaceful parent is raising a naturally intense child?
In this episode, Matt and Erin unpack the real challenges phlegmatic parents face when raising choleric children. You’ll discover why your child’s pushback isn’t personal, how to set healthy processes instead of rigid boundaries, and what mindset shifts help transform power struggles into moments of growth.
You’ll discover:
- Why phlegmatic parents often misread conflict as failure
- How to reframe your child’s “fighting” as conviction
- The #1 mindset shift that restores your peace
- A simple process to create calm, consistent structure
- How to redirect your child’s strong will toward virtue
Learn how to leverage your phlegmatic superpowers, empathy, consistency, calm, and bring out the best in your child’s God-given leadership drive.
