PODCAST: We Don't Know What The Future Holds
In today's episode we chit chat about all the unknowns in life during COVID and the mixed emotions, excuses, struggles and growth that have come along with it. We talk about understanding our stressors and how important it is to take action - to face it, own it, respond to it in a positive way and move forward. We also touch on mom guilt and how we have to just let it go. We're mom enough but we can't give them everything they need..... And then we start to dream up our plans for the summer even though we have no idea what the future holds. Listen in !!
TOP QUOTES FROM THIS PODCAST:
We often say 'you are enough' as a mom. They don't need a different mom, but they need more than just 'mom'.
You have to understand what your stress trigger points are. I don't think a lot of people talk about what stresses them out. You have to own it and figure out how to deal with it. If you’re responding to stress in a way that’s negative and toxic, you have to step back and check yourself in order to move forward. COVID is not an "I" statement. It didn't just happen to you, it's happening to EVERYBODY. Everybody has experienced some type of loss in this situation.
As someone who has to entertain the kids all day, I am definitely letting go of having to entertain them all day and not feeling guilty for not being present in everything.
