This episode is the longest I’ve done so far because it covers it all.

I truly believe that your healing and feeling better starts with understanding first what’s going on with you. And unfortunately, it goes deeper than just you not being able to control your anger when your kids don’t listen and you’re already stressed out/exhausted…

So that’s why this episode covers the explanation about what trauma is (because you might have one or more without knowing it), what the latest trauma therapy techniques are (and that they are much more effective than the outdated blabla therapy from 30 years ago), and what you can do to get help.

THIS is the work that needs to happen FIRST.

BEFORE you start diving into any parenting techniques, scripts, or strategies. Because these are useless… In Czech, we say it’s like ‘putting lipstick on a pig’ (just trying to make you laugh here, not to offend you.) But you see how that doesn’t work? Your trauma is that pig. A parenting technique on top of that won’t make it look pretty and ok.

 So dive in with me and start uncovering the real reasons why you haven’t been able to stop yelling at your kids yet…

Dear supermom,

You're amazing, lovable, and worthy of all the appreciation in the world, exactly the way you are right now.

YOU ARE ENOUGH.

Don't believe me?
Are those voices in your head telling a different story?

Well, it might be time to start reprogramming that nasty self-talk NOW.
Because what would you say to your daughter/son if they told you they have similar stories in their head about who they are?

... You see?

And I don't have to tell you that more than what you do, your kids are reading your energy, right? They KNOW how you're feeling. They see how you're treating yourself...

So if you need any more reasons why you should start working on your negative self-talk, because you feeling better is not a reason strong enough, then here you have it ->

-> What's the best, most effective way to make sure your kids will grow up with healthy self-confidence and strong mental fitness level so that no matter what difficulty or setback comes their way, they won't break?

Yes, a healthy, happy, calm, mentally strong mom.

Have I got your attention now?
A bit of tough love, I know. That's my style - nurturing AND a bit of a kick in the behind when needed...

Here's your first step.

Enjoy and send me an email/DM on socials about how it went for you.

Take great care of yourself, supermom.
YOU ARE ENOUGH

It's not about your emotions, not enough time, or about other people pushing your buttons...
 
 There is a way you can stay calm, laser-focused, and effectively manage any stressful situation with your anger eating you up inside, or bursting out. Even if nothing/no one else changes.
 
 How?
 
 I unpacked it step by step in the Zen Supermom, Mental Fitness Podcast in the last two episodes about the Mental Fitness Intro.
 
 And in this final episode, we’ll wrap it all together.
 
 For the most value, download the template for the exercise we are doing together in this episode:

And watch it on youtube to follow along.
 

After you’re done, I’d love to hear from you!

What did it do for you? What was the most valuable realization you had?

You can share your insights here to inspire others to listen to this episode and get help.

And if you’d love to get this done now and finally become that calm, happy mom you always wanted to be, then DM me "BOOTCAMP" or “1-1” and let's check if my group/private mental fitness is the right fit for you!

This episode builds up on the previous one - episode 18.
Episode 18 unpacked:
- the beginning of the stressed mom journey
-what's really going on, and
-why the classic parenting/mom advice does NOT help in being a calm, loving, peaceful mom (without raising your voice too much).

In this episode #19, I'm continuing on that journey by answering the question I get the most from newcomers:
-OK, so now what…
HOW do you stay calm no matter what?
-How does Mental Fitness help, SPECIFICALLY?
-What is the method, or exercises behind it? How does it really work?

PLUS, you get a free gift again. For you to go and try it for yourself.

Let's dive in!

Here's the podcast episode on youtube - EPISODE #19 on YOUTUBE, if you want to watch me talk. It's unedited, so in case my uhm's and "sooo" annoy you, stick to this podcast version that's at least a bit more polished. :)

Enjoy!

I could not even count how many times I felt judged, criticized, or compared to others as a mom. 
And worse, how often I did that to myself, or to others...

I'm going to break it down in this episode with you.
So that you not only understand what's REALLY happening and why, but also how to stop it, and protect yourself and your relationships.

What would you do if you didn't care about what others will think about it/you?

I'm serious.
What would become possible once you stop worrying about what's expected from you?

I'd love to hear about your dreams and your story.

Here's mine, in this podcast episode, about why I keep cutting my hair so short.
(And yes, don't worry, I did donate my long hair to a cancer wig manufacturer :)

May this inspire you and give you hope.

PS: Here's the link I promised:

PPS: And as a legal disclaimer, I don't take any responsibility for your choices about your hair... 
(But you go rock that buzzcut if that's what you dream about! :)
