Are you making things you don’t want to happen, happen? Perhaps putting too much pressure on your kids in their sports? Do you know it’s a trap for them and may affect your relationship with them? 

Imagine seeing your kid feeling heavy when we get mad at them for not “showing up” on the field or mat. I’ve been there and I’ve seen it with my own kids. The thing is, know better do better amiright?! Sometimes as moms, we don’t realize the impact it has on our kids. All their brains want to do is please us as parents and when we are constantly putting pressure on them to win. I made a massive shift last year because I realized I was putting a lot of pressure on my little boy to really show up on the wrestling mat and my competitive spirit was getting the best of me. I shifted into teaching him how to feel proud of himself and the way he chooses to show up to each match. 

Not only did these shifts change our relationship, but it gave him a greater sense of pride when he knew that HE did his best win or lose.  

I’m sharing some tools in this episode that helped our family so that it can help yours too!
