#10 - How Do I Know What’s Best for My Child? A Real-Time Parenting Contemplation


Listen Later

What if we stopped pretending we always knew what was best for our kids?

In this raw, in-the-moment contemplation, I invite you into a sacred question I’m living inside as a mother:

✨ What happens when your child’s truth and your intuitive “no” collide? ✨ Can you trust their energy, even when it challenges your own? ✨ How do we raise children rooted in self-trust, if we keep overriding their wisdom with our own?

This episode isn’t about answers. It’s about letting go of the pressure to be right—and choosing instead to be present.

Inside, I explore:

* Parenting through the lens of Human Design (and what happens when your spleen says “no” but your child’s sacral says “yes”)

* Real-life examples from my own family (yes, this just happened last night)

* The power of contemplating in real-time—not fixing, not forcing, just witnessing

* Why it’s okay not to know, and how that might be the most empowering gift we give our children

Whether you’re a Projector like me or navigating your own unique design, this is your reminder that: We’re not raising followers. We’re raising sovereign souls.

Let’s live the question together.
