How does it feel to be loved unconditionally - the good and the "bad" in you, no matter if you make a mistake, no matter if you look perfect... Is it even possible to be loved or love someone else unconditionally? Or is it just one of those unicorn theories?

That's a completely normal and natural question to ask, especially if you didn't always feel loved/appreciated by your parents. If you felt like you had to prove yourself, behave and act in the ways they approved, in order to get their positive attention.

So now it's really hard for you to feel like a great parent because you're torn between setting rules and boundaries (so that they don't grow up into being spoiled brats), but also loving them even if they make a mistake. Because you want them to feel safe with you, and tell you about their struggles.

So HOW?
How can you learn about unconditional love if you never got enough of it?

Come with me...

Ep 10: How can you give unconditional love to others if you did not get enough of it yourself?

Do you end up getting into fights with your parents/siblings in your family reunions? Or just feel stressed and nervous before you see them?

What if it could be different this time?
What if you could use this opportunity to show your kids how to navigate difficult relationships with grace, calm, and compassion?
To be the example on how to set boundaries without getting hurt or hurting others?

Why should you even consider doing so much effort when it's "their fault" anyways?
Because unless and until you realize what's really going on in the relationships with your parents/sibligns, you'll always be the victim of it. And it will keep holding power over you, your reactions, your emotions.

It's time to take your power and peace back.

Are you up for the challenge? 
Let's go!

Being sick sucks. Because unlike all the other human beings, if you’re a mom, you can’t just take a day off. You still need to take care of everyone and everything!

So of course, it’s also going to be much more difficult to stay calm and patient with your kids. Especially if they are sick too…

How to go through the times when you or/and your kids are sick, without losing your mind?

Listen in…

I’m curious, what memories do you have about Christmas when you were a child? And what were your best memories about?

And what is your most important focus now that you have become a mom?

Is it the cleaning, cooking, perfect gifts, planning perfect parties and visits, … so that you can feel you did the best you could and won’t be judged?

And what if you didn’t have to feel stressed and under pressure this year?

I know, asking a lot of questions.

Well, if you grew up like me with a super-stressed supermom who wanted everything to be perfect, and always ended up creating the biggest drama, especially during Christmas, then this podcast episode is for you.

There is another way. You don’t have to become your mom, no matter how much you love her.

And December can really be a month full of peace, love, and joy. It’s totally doable, for you too.

If you can’t calm yourself down when you’re overwhelmed and tired, you can’t expect your kids to be able to do the same.

And I’m saying that with all of my compassion. Because I know how hard and impossible it feels to be able to stay calm and loving when you’re already running empty of energy and they keep asking for more…

• What does it take to be able to be there for your kids, without sacrificing your own mental health?
• Why you can stop looking for the answers in the parenting books?
• And what is one simple thing you can already do today, right now?

Come with me and let’s talk…
