Becoming a mother is the most exciting yet scary adventure we'll ever embark on. I know we all wished there was a manual to becoming a parent and how to navigate the process. Unfortunately, this does not exist, but learning to accept our children for who they are is crucial for your relationship with them. Today we deep dive into the hard seasons of motherhood and how to find happiness and balance ( even when your child is having a tantrum)
In today's episode, we'll be learning about:
· MOTHERHOOD: Nothing or none can prepare you for your journey into motherhood
· UNIQUELY DIFFERENT: Every child is different in their unique way.
· GUILT AND BLAME: It's easy for mothers to feel guilty and shame for thinking we "did this" to our children.
· NEVER TOO LATE: The brain is growing and always evolving. It's never too late to step in and make a positive change for your child.
· SHOWING UP: When you as a mother show up differently, your kids can show up differently.
· UNDERNEATH: it's the behavior that is what's driving it.
· COMMUNICATION: A Child's behavior is a form of communication that they're trying to communicate how they feel.
· MELTDOWNS: It's NOT a behavior it's emotions out of control.
· WE'RE HUMANS: We all have good days and bad days. Sometimes's it's easy to forget we have feelings.
· GET ROOTED: in love and acceptance of what is.
· IT'S OK: It's OK to get out of your way and ask for help! Asking for help is courage, not weakness.
