Nourishing the Mother

NTM 403: When it feels like there’s no release from your ‘hardest kid’


Listen Later

Your nervous system feels frayed, and you feel like you just can’t take it anymore…every day is like a firing of that trigger, and there’s no break and no light at the end of the tunnel…listen to this!

We’ll take you through three easy, tangible steps so you can change your story, so you can change your life. 

In this episode we discuss:

 ⁃ What does it mean to be the ‘too good’ child? 

 ⁃ Dispersing the ‘good’ and ‘bad’ traits across a family dynamic

 ⁃ As parents, we can further polarise, and amplify traits and behaviours in our children

 ⁃ The way children end up playing the role that we cast them in 

 ⁃ Owning the trait so you stop rallying against them 

 ⁃ Making room in your life for new things that are important to you

 ⁃ The choice point we have around how we can respond 

 ⁃ Whether we see our child as a problem, or we see this as a deeper initiation into greater skills and identity 

 ⁃ Trusting your child’s strength more than their fragility

 ⁃ Witnessing an emotion without making it mean anything

 ⁃ Getting skilled at seeing your child wider, to reduce your emotional response
