Ambitious and Balanced Working Moms

Stop trying to make your kids happy


Listen Later

It’s OK for your kids to be unhappy. It’s OK for them to cry uncontrollably when you leave them. Your kids are allowed to feel whatever they want to feel because it doesn’t mean that you’re a bad parent. When you try to make sure your kids are always happy, it leaves you feeling exhausted and out of balance because you are trying to control something (or someone) that is ultimately uncontrollable. In today’s episode I want to offer you another perspective to your kid’s emotions that will allow you to feel more connected and calm in the midst of their big feelings.

Topics in this episode:
  • A new way to think of negative emotions
  • Why it’s ok to not always feel happy
  • Why your mama bear instincts get triggered with your kid’s big feelings
  • The importance of defining what makes you a good parent
  • How your kids emotions effect your work-life

Show Notes:
  • Let’s start the process of redefining success as a working mom so that both your career and your life as a mom thrive! Click here to learn more and schedule a call: www.rebeccaolsoncoaching.com/coaching
