Letter from the Trenches

Dear parents, 
Let me start with this. Your mental load goes unseen everyday - the invisible factors you carry with concern associated with the most seemly mundane tasks like cooking a meal. In this episode we dive into seeing the unseen, understanding why the burden feels heavy, and what we can do to activate antidotes to shame - an all too common experience for parents. 

If you're the mom who sobs on your child's bedroom floor, spent at the end of the day, but your kid won't "turn off", I feel you. As always, we're getting real in our conversation and addressing some of the factors around your highly needed but ever-illusive self care. We'll talk about how perceived failure quickly can turn to shame tapes on a broken record player, how true self care doesn't aim to "fix" things, and what you can learn to do for yourselves in the thick of it. Let's learn to love ourselves together. 

PS. If you aren't yet following me on FB & IG, please do....I'm posting self care challenges throughout this podcast series and I'd love for you to join in!  {Karen Peters, RCC or @karenpeters_rcc}

With you,
Me
