You know that lump in your throat you try to swallow when you want to hold back tears?
Most of us do it automatically.
We tell ourselves we have to be strong because crying will make our kids worry, or that holding it together proves we're in control.
But what if tears aren't a sign of weakness at all? What if they're a gift to you and your kids?
In this episode, I'm sharing why sadness isn't something to fix or avoid.
You'll learn how allowing yourself to feel it (and sometimes express it in front of your kids) can regulate your nervous system, deepen your connection, and show your kids what emotional health really looks like.
