56. Rethink Mother's Day: How to Get What You're Really Looking For


Listen Later

Have you had a less-than-wonderful Mother's Day in the past?

Looking to this year with a bit of dread, because you feel you might be:

  • Taking care of others (your MIL, making your own card with the kids, etc),
  • Overlooked, or 
  • Under-appreciated /Not celebrated as you would like to be celebrated?

❤️We've got a 3 part recipe to reinvent the Mother's Day you really want. ❤️

My first Mother's Day was far from the idyllic scene I had pictured — imagine a hungover husband, me changing all the diapers, being told the shoes I bought myself the week before were my "gift", and feeling completely unappreciated.  But I've learned a lot since then, and in this heartfelt episode, I'm spilling the tea on transforming Mother's Day from a potential letdown into a celebration that truly honors our motherhood journey.

By the time you finish listening, you'll know:

  • The common traps we fall into - like expecting our partners to be mind-readers or grappling with guilt when it comes to expressing our wishes. 
  • How to end our guilt, "should'ing" or other unhelpful thinking patterns.
  • How to look inward and speak outward, to be clear with our loved ones and honor the celebration moment we totally deserve.  

Join me, knee-to-knee, mom-to-mom, as we explore the art of communicating our needs and shaping a Mother's Day that leaves us feeling cherished and rejuvenated.

And if you are in a space where you REALLY DESIRE SPACE FOR REJUVENATION,
join me on the DAY OPTION, or OVERNIGHT option of the "Rooted and Reaching - Sustainable Parenting Glamping Women's Retreat."
