One of the questions I received from a podcast listener-  How do you change yourself?

In other words, how do you heal from your past and parent well at the same time?

I get it. I have reparented myself. It is possible to heal from your past while parenting. Healing from your past trauma includes reparenting yourself. 

It is possible to reparent yourself and heal all while parenting at the same time. Just know, it’s not going to happen overnight or magically. You actually have to put the time and work into – journaling your triggers, reframing your beliefs, and instituting practices that provide felt-safety for yourself. Set aside time to process. You can make sense of and make peace with your past. Grab a cup of coffee, a pen, and your journal, and get ready to start healing from your past trauma!
