Becoming You

Saying Yes, Overcoming Fears and Experiencing Anger and Forgiveness with Ashwin


Listen Later

"Anger doesn't make us terrible people. Anger just means we react in ways where we are not proud of ourselves."

This week's guest is my youngest son, Ashwin. He is incredibly considerate, thoughtful and so expressive. I love how he knows what he wants, sticks to it, and has his own opinion. Nobody is changing his mind!

He surprised me with a few of his answers today. We were able to discuss anger with honesty and self-forgiveness and reflect on how far he's come to work through angry feelings and understand them better.

It's hard sometimes to manage our emotions, and we were able to recognize that the amount of time he has stayed angry has decreased, and I am very, very proud of him for working through his anger and being where we are today.

We talked about some of our favorite things about each other, this is such a fun exercise to connect and share our love.

I asked a big question - What did he think I needed to work on more? He felt like I said no a lot! I will definitely work on saying yes more often.

He shared his ambitious goal and I have my own fear of what could happen, but I want him to express himself. Instead of saying a straight yes, we agreed that he could work towards this by accomplishing a reading goal for 2 weeks in a row. I will have to update you in a few weeks to recount his progress!
