"However you want to parent, you can't pull that off unless you're feeling good in your life”

“If we can sort of tip the scales in our favor most of the time, then we win the day”

“We are not robots. Our kids aren't robots. We're humans with human emotions and experiences and lenses and it's just so messy.”

“If we can really focus on how we be and how we show up, that's going to inspire, inform, empower and influence what we do.”

“Maybe the perfect version of the human being is one that that is about self care and compassion and has a core of ethic that informs their actions most of the time. ”

“Who am I at my best?”

“You've been defining yourself by how you've been in the external world, when that's been in complete conflict with actually what you stand for and what you value.”
