My son was trying to tie his show. It was taking too long. I snapped. And then I realized; this isn't about the shoe. This is about me- my need for control, my anxiety, the urgency I leaned as a kid that I'm now passing to him. In this episode, I talk about the healing I wish I'd done before becoming a mom, and the healing I'm doing now while raising my kids. The triggers we don't know we have until parenthood activates them. The patterns we swore we'd never repeat but catch ourselves doing anyway. The cycle-breaking work that's hard, messy, and so necessary. If you're not a parent yet, do the inner work now. If you already have kids, it's not too late- awareness and accountability can change everything. Let's break the cycles together.
