Loving On Purpose

Accepting What Is vs Resisting What Is


Listen Later

Some of you are probably not looking forward to Christmas.  Maybe even dreading that it's here because of a painful relationship with an adult child or some other family member.  In this episode I show you why accepting the circumstance, without giving up the desire for it to be different, helps you enjoy the holidays more than if you were resisting the hurt filled circumstance.  Choosing love, compassion and forgiveness are key to living a well lived life but acceptance of the painful parts is what keeps us moving forward loving our children despite their behavior.  Loving them doesn't equate to supporting their actions....it only brings you closer to choosing love rather than judgement.

I am no longer offering my 8-week coaching program, but I remain fully committed to supporting parents of adult children. If you have questions or need guidance, you’re welcome to reach out to me directly at [email protected].

I would be honored to help you find greater confidence and happiness in your life
