Ep 17 - You are Human Too - Teaching Your Children to be Vulnerable and Honest by Example
This week on the show Ang is continuing to share her wisdom on the subject of children and divorce. Instinct tells us to put our children first when going through a divorce. As a parent you want to shield them from everything, but this can come at a cost. In this episode, Ang shares her insights on how best to be there for your children, and it is by taking care of yourself first and foremost. Because, as Ang explains, by looking after yourself you can look after your children which encourages them to look after themselves and you.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
- It is the most natural thing in the world to want to spend time with your children after going through a divorce, but it is also vitally important to spend time by yourself. Ang talks about her approach to this and tells you how to spot opportunities that you might not have otherwise seen.
- Divorce is a big event in anyone's life and the emotions that come with it can easily amplify the significance of all other problems you are facing. Ang's stepmom shared some words of wisdom with her that helped her realise this and prioritise, and Ang is about to share them with you.
- Spending time with your children is incredibly important, but what's more important is being able to communicate effectively with them. Ang shares her top tips on how to communicate with the younger generation.
- While you're busy looking out for your children, what you might miss is that they are looking out for you too. For this reason, Ang explains why it's crucial to show your children that you are not invincible and how being vulnerable around them will encourage them to be vulnerable around you.
BEST MOMENTS
"The flipside of spending time with your children is that you also need to give yourself time too."
"It can be extremely difficult to communicate when there is friction."
"It's an essential part of parenting that you look after yourself too. You can only be the best for someone else if you are the best version of you."

ABOUT THE PODCAST
Do I Really Hate Men?
Interesting question and one I have asked myself many times. This is not an 'I hate men' podcast neither is it just an account of my divorce and the many awful events leading up to and during it. This podcast is a safe space to delve into what happens when relationships end, it provides guidance on how to carry on being a functioning adult and/or Single Mum when you feel broken inside.
This podcast provides hope sprinkled with humour, at times its emotional at times inspiring and at times sad. I have a message to share with women around the world, come join me and your global sisters for a weekly dose of Superhero Mum inspiration and stories.
My mission -to help women and mothers globally to recover from relationship pain, lead meaningful happy lives and inspire their children to succeed.
NOTE – I need you to know that I don't hate men! It's important that you know there are many great men out there. Many fantastic fathers and single fathers trying hard to do a great job. I know little about the struggles of single fathers; however, I presume they are numerous common issues we share with these amazing men who strive to do the right thing by their children.
