It can feel impossible to speak our truth when it has been dismissed and de-valued our entire life.

Especially when our subconscious has connected speaking out to experiencing pain.

It can feel scary to find out that our truth looks very different from who our parents think we should be.

Every human walking the earth has a story.

As we come into contact, we cannot help but to project our story onto each other.

When we take the time to get to know our own story, our own beliefs, our own limitations, the more we begin to see what belongs to us and what belongs to the other.

If we are blind to this when we have children, they quickly become the screens for our personal movie.

It can be exhausting to go through every day guiding a young child this way and that way, moment by moment.

When you develop a routine it will carry the whole family and the child quickly learns what is coming next which supports them to go with the flow.

By setting a routine you are deciding ahead of time, with your partner and any other caregivers, what your limits are and where they lie.

This way when something unexpected comes up, you are supported by this framework.

Emotional and social intelligence grows and develops through relationship and primarily through the experiences that a child has with his or her parents.

When we offer our children empathy and help them to cope with negative feelings like anger, sadness, and fear, we create a foundation of loyalty and trust that our children carry with them throughout their lives.

This is a quick story of how I approach this with my daughter.
