Failing Motherhood

114. Your Parenting "Report Card": How to Know if You're *Actually* Failing or Not


Listen Later

There are so many reasons to feel insecure, guilt, shame or fear as a parent. How do you know if you're doing okay or if you need to make a change?

If your child’s behavior is not your report card, what is?

In today's episode I share 3 questions to navigate that help you decide for yourself and your family what the right next step is for you. Many times it's simply letting an expectation go, forgetting about that unsolicited advice, and allowing other families to parent differently than you.

Use these questions alongside the day-to-day feedback to stay grounded in the decisions that are best for your kids, and help you truly hear and listen to your gut instinct as their parent.


IN THIS EPISODE, I SHARED...

  • 3 Questions to ask yourself when doubting, questioning or worried about your parenting
  • A strategic way to address all the "shoulds" in your head
  • A way to re frame the adversity you face day-to-day

DON'T MISS:

  • How I use my family's values to know when something needs to change
