Description

Rather than compare ourselves to each other and try to measure up to an uninvestigated ideal, how about we all agree that we're imperfect? What's ahead is a conversation about what it means to embrace the idea of imperfectionism, as a human being, as a parent, and as a family.

Description

Look around you and find someone who is really good at rest. Chances are, you can't see anyone who fits this category. What you probably see is a lot of people who are overcommitted and totally stretched beyond capacity. So, what's the deal? Why when we're biologically designed to rest do so many of us find no time for it or resist opportunities to just stop for five minutes? Why do we all have more to do than is possible to do?

Kim Ades is the President and Founder of Frame of Mind Coaching and JournalEngine Software, and has 15 years of experience coaching many of North America's most respected leaders. She's an author, speaker, entrepreneur, coach, and mom of five, and in recent years she's started to notice how often leaders struggle with parenting. She joined me to discuss her philosophies and findings on parenting, as well as journaling, a topic she is hugely passionate about.

Description

When it comes to parenting, we can totally wing it; many of us do. A lot of great kids have been raised in great homes without their parents reading a single book about parenting. But for those of us who feel a little out of our depth at times, I'm thankful that there are a ton of books, resources and thought leaders who can give us insight into what it means and what it looks like to parent with intention.

If we're not careful, or unaware, the meals we create and meet around each day can start to feel like a chore instead of pleasure. And while I can certainly attest to sometimes feeling the drudgery of preparing a dinner each night, my guest today will tell you that dinnertime is not really about the food at all; it's about the connection.

Description

Many of us have areas of our life where we shrink a little, we let ourselves be a little smaller. You might even say, where we sell ourselves out. To me, part of living life my fully and really thriving is learning to navigate my perceived shortcomings, my fears and my stumbling blocks. Part of that is simply identifying what those are and the other part, as you will soon hear, is taking action in spite of them.

Description

It's so much easier to be grounded and happy when you feel good. If you've ever tried to a handle a frustrating, stressful or aggravating situation when you're tired, undernourished or over-caffeinated, you probably had the experience of struggling to be at your best and to harness a peaceful way of being. But when we're well rested, well-fed and generally feeling good, accessing the zen parts of ourselves is incredibly easier.

It's really hard to be a conscious parent. It calls on us to be more patient and compassionate than ever before. It requires us to be organized, thoughtful and discerning. It can consume us with anxiety and regret, while also filling our lives with joy and gratitude. But being a parent can be a gateway to our most significant growth points and it gives us the opportunity to expand who we are capable of being.
