            4. S1.E5: You're a good enough Mom, trust me. (Losing your patience with your kids, Part 3 of 3)

              Welcome back to the BraveHer podcast. This episode is part three of a three-part series on how to be more patient with your children (and how to feel less guilty when you do!). The first two episodes are full of really great strategies and mindset shifts, so if you haven’t listened to those episodes yet be sure to go back and listen. Both are full of valuable information.

              This episode has information that is the most self-affirming and comforting of the three series. It provides a big relief for moms when we inevitably lose our patience with our kids.

              In this episode I share:

              • The value of community, and how it reaffirms that we’re all experiencing and navigating the same things.
              • Some mindset shifts and strategies to help you develop healthy relationships with your kids.
              • Research on what creates healthy, emotionally resilient children.
              • The concepts of “good enough parenting” and “rupture and repair”
              • If you love this episode be sure to share it on social media and tag me! I’d love to say hi and thank you.

                Today I'm sharing part 2 of a three-part series on how to manage overwhelm and become more patient with your kids. This is something that's so common among my clients and patients. My hope is that this series helps you feel less guilty about losing your patience and gives you the tools you need to better manage overwhelm as a parent. 

                In this episode I share:

This is something that I get asked about a lot with my clients and patients. So many moms feel overwhelmed and get impatient with their kids, only to feel guilt afterwards. If that resonates, then not to worry, you're not alone in this feeling. We all struggle with this at one point or another. I'm breaking this down into a three-part series so that the tips and tricks I share are bite-sized and manageable.

                          What I love about this conversation is it really feels like sitting down with your best girlfriends to get to know each other a little better and to chat about all things self-love, self-exploration and self-compassion.
