The daily grind of family life can have a us feeling like we don’t recognise who we are, and feeling anything but calm. Yet at the same time, berating ourselves for not being the calm, perfect mother. Even the best family calendar in the world will not save you from family chaos.

So let us help you get comfy in chaos, so you’re more available to find the calm.

In this episode we discuss:

- Making chaos safe in your nervous system
- Over-infatuation with calm
- Building your tolerance for chaos
- Pairing the chaos with something meaningful
- If you don’t have awareness of who you really are, you’re more attached to who you’re supposed to be
- Authenticity includes chaos
- Rising above your daily kryptonite triggers
- Finding the right buffers for you, so you can feel more connected to you
- Doing something that creates resistance or creativity
- Remembering it’s not all on you
- Action planning your day to keep you on track
- Knowing your priorities when chaos arrives
- Bringing gentleness and compassion to yourself
- A problem shared is a problem halved
