Marie Nasemann and husband Sebastian Tigges report in their joint podcast about their everyday life and the challenges that have to be mastered both as a couple and as parents. As usual, the two speak openly about the task of raising a “strong emotional child”.
Marie Nasemann (32) and Sebastian Tigges became parents for the first time in April 2020, and a second child is on the way. The three quickly settled into their everyday life as a small family, but like all parents, the two of them are always faced with challenges.
Marie Nasemann’s first year with her son was “exhausting”
“We have an emotional child,” the former “Germany’s Next Top Model” candidate begins her post on Instagram. To discuss this topic, the couple got an expert on the current episode of their podcast “Drei ist ne Party” with the author of the book “So much joy, so much anger”, Nora Imlau. “Because no other book reflects our reality so much and provides so many enlightenments,” explains Marie. “For the first time we understand that we really haven’t done anything wrong and that our son is much more extreme in all emotional directions than other babies and therefore looking back on the first year with our son – despite support & two – just very very feels exhausting. “
The young parents were “close to despair”
They would have to learn to say goodbye to their “relaxed dream child”, because that never happened, even if “we love our son 100% as he is and we also see the many positive sides of his emotional strength”. In the conversation, her husband also reports how much their child demands of the two. “We have often addressed the fact that we always have the feeling that we only whine when we tell about our child and that everything is always very negative,” Sebastian confesses in the podcast. During an internet search after “we were close to despair again last week”, Marie came across the author and her book. In it, she describes children who are “very, very open to all stimuli from birth, without anyone being able to help them.”

A finding that seems to help the newly married couple cope better with their child’s emotions. “And we also learn to deal with our inner injured children ourselves. In the meantime,” continues Marie Nasemann on Instagram, “we are quite sure that we were both emotionally strong children ourselves, for whose strong emotions there was not always room and space ( and partly is not yet today) “.
