We all have those parenting moments we’re not proud of—the ones where we lose our cool or miss the mark. So today, I’m opening up about one of mine. It happened just this morning with my oldest son, and let’s just say I didn’t exactly follow the advice I so often share with clients.
I’m sharing this story because I know I’m not alone in these messy moments. Together, we’ll unpack what was really going on, how my own emotions got in the way, and the mindset shifts I had to make to recover from this situation.
And spoiler alert: it wasn’t about him being “mean” at all, but about something much deeper that I almost missed. So sit back, relax, and hear an honest reflection on what it means to parent imperfectly, even when you “know better.” My story might even help you find some reassurance, and hope that you can always turn things around.
