Magic Moment: Embracing Our Children's (and Our Own) Flaws


Listen Later

In this episode, Felica delves into the idea of embracing our children’s flaws. She discusses the jewish term, yetzer hara, and explains how it looks in real life to see the less desirable aspects of our children’s personalities from a place of clarity. For all of us out there who have darker sides ourselves (oh that’s all of us), and have people in our families with flaws (also everyone), this refreshing episode will help us reframe how we look at the qualities that often frustrate us.

Review of the week from GreenMamaDoc:

Just wanted to say Thank You! I very much appreciate you. Your words are always genuine, non-judgemental and thought provoking. I have actually never missed an episode. I love the mindfulness you bring to parenting and the reminder to care for ourselves during this journey of motherhood. I have taken up yoga and have been getting up earlier thanks to you both. Please know you are making a difference in this world, for the better. Thank you for sharing your light.
