  • Jana Chan -Part 1: Trauma, transition and upsizing with Family?

    Part 1: Better to upsize after months of leading a minimalist lifestyle on the road?  Or, upsize and go back to the way things were before nomadic life?

    It’s 11.11. 

    Another moment in time with Czech mom, Jana Chan making her way in Australia.

    HAPPY, HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!!

    And, by some wild chance.. this releases.. on Jana’s birthday! Vešechno nelepši! Wishing you the best .. what an incredible way to launch into your new year!:) We are honored.

    We step into Jana’s next phase, once again getting an intimate view into what transition looks like within her family. This time, things are moving in a new direction and Jana assesses and contemplates more space, reality of the moment and another “unknown”.

    We take a moment with what was happening, though already shifting and likely again, in West Australia with pandemic. Knowing full well the constant shift and changes with rules, borders and opens are in ever flowing motion.

    A view on shifting from being a city girl/family.. to country girl, living like our forefathers (And mothers), living off the land.

    Housing in Australia and California.

    Upsizing and minimalism?

    Trauma and transition.

    Are you in the moment?  Or, in the Struggle of the moment?

  • Midlife motherhood - a conversation about being yourself

    Who do you want to be when you grow up?  We often ask kids "what do you want to be when you grow up?  Yet, Who are you, NOW, Parents?  Who do you want to be?  What are your intentions and how is that working out?  How can you show your kids the best of you?  So, they do the same?

    It's the 1st podcast of the month, and so we focus on midlife parenting, yet.. today's episode is for you, in the unknown, the uncertainty of these times.

    You are at a crossroads and looking back at who have you been?  How much of that do you want to bring forward?

    How much of yourself have you left behind that you want to tether to this moment as you move forward?

    What is it that you most want to do?  What are your priorities?  Who's your priority?

    Let us hold space for one another.  Let this community be what you need to feel supported, to let go of toxic people, to move deeper into your own destiny in work, family, and more!

    Let this echo out all around you and inspire others.. to be brave, to be them, to allow what is meant to be!

  • Family Emotional Intelligence

    Emotions? Family? If we are
    are managing our emotions, then why is it effecting our kids?

    Emotions are felt in the body.  No matter what we attempt to control.

    Are you losing pregnancies? Emotions have a greater effect on keeping pregnancies than most reasons we are given by the doctors.

    So, what about that?

    What can you do to work with what is happening in the world, that is rippling out within our family and yourself?

  • What would you do, Parents?

    What would you do tomorrow, if you knew the world were ending? Would you do thr same job?  Create art? Make things with your kids?

    Do things work out the first time around?

    What did making Halloween decor teach this week?

    I challenge you, this week to consider this and take action.

    if you aren’t happy with your choices.. make different ones.. before your body does it for you..

    Take control of your world, by surrendering to your true needs and happiness.

    What exactly are you waiting for?!  Heck! What am I?’

  • Can’t You Just Believe?

    Sometimes, you just need to BELIEVE.  Believing is creating.  And, if you want to re-wire your reality to be better, more what you for, what you dream of.. it all starts there!

    In truth, that whole idea.. is a but easier said than done.  Yet, like anything.. with a little training of oneself, you can get there..  Sometimes, like learning any new skill we need a little more support to get there.. a buddy a co-creator, someone to remind us of who you are..  Someone to shed the light.  Sometimes, maybe I can kickstart that for you.  Maybe sometimes you’ll get there on your own.  Yet, getting there.. is the point..

    Without believing in something it simply doesn’t exist!
    You cannot manifest what you don’t know and believe exists.

    And, you don’t see what is there, what exists.. when you are stuck in a downward spiral or pattern that does not energize you, your relationship and your family. It’s too easy to keep repeating the same thing over and over again.. creating a groove that is hard to get OUT of.  Then, you end up in the life you DON’T want.. and you lose sight of the one you DO!

    This week, I reflect on all this and give you a small
    Challenge!:)

  • Debt Free Behavior with Yandry Taveras

    Imperfect Parenting Podcast and Ariel Andersson are happy to at last share this conversation with Yandry Taveras!

    Through fire evac and elder neighbor Crisis delays.. at last this episode is released just on the right moment..

    You never know what will happen tomorrow. One day you are leading a 5 star life and the next.. well, you just never know.. Then, swoop.. you could be doing better than ever before!

    Things are too uncertain, right now.

    Most people I talk with are either way over worked and doing well.  Or, struggling and burning through savings.

    Are you thriving? Or, looking at Debt?  Or, looking to get ahead in your finances during this unpredictable time?

    Nothing is permanent. You CAN change your reality as Yandry shows us, this week!

    Yandry Taveras shares her story here on Imperfect Parenting to inspire you to have courage to make changes for more freedom and a better family destiny.

    I heard Yandry tell her story on a coaching call we were both on and that was it for me.  I knew I had to sit down and talk with her about the possibilities and how we could help you get ahead in your finances so you can grow your life with your family as you all deserve.

    The more freedom you have, the more creative space you have to do what you’re mean to.. which grows your health, vitality and joy!

    Connecting and more Yandry tips:

    Website and Blog:  debtfreebehavior.com

    About Yandry Taveras:
    Yandry created “Debt Free Behavior” to help others learn more about personal finance and explore how to build positive financial behaviors while paying off debt. I’m happily married and have two beautiful kids. I was born in the Dominican Republic, raised in New York and now settled in Raleigh, NC. I have a Bachelor of Science in Psychology from William Peace University. I work for a non-profit as a homeownership advisor. I help renters become homeowners by helping them budget, improve their credit and apply for down payment assistance. Outside of work, I enjoy volunteering in the community and spending time with my husband, Jovanny, and our two children Manny & Emma. I enjoy hosting dinner parties, dancing and cooking. I find true joy in giving  my time, energy and resources to help others.
