9: The superpower you need when you're trying to 'do it all' this school year

Expectations around parenting in today's culture can be really overwhelming.

So many 'should's', responsibilities, meetings, daily routines, to-do's, and more.

Maybe you feel like you're trying to keep your head above water with everything going on, and is it ever really enough? The to-do's are endless, and never really get to the heart and soul of what you and your t(w)een need.

Since I'm on a mission to change the way you relate to parenting a t(w)eenager, this also means changing the way you relate to yourself.

That's why I'm so excited for this week's episode.

Inside the episode I share:

  • the one thing you can practice immediately that will drastically improve your life when you're trying to 'do it all' this school year

  • how this practice impacts your relationship with your t(w)een and how they see and support themselves

01:44 - Parenting a Teen Doesn’t Have to Be a Nightmare
03:01 - The Health Scare That Reminded Me What Really Matters
04:45 - Gratitude, Peace, and the Urge to Live Deeper
05:18 - It Started with Gratitude—and Grew into Self-Kindness
06:17 - When Life Gets Heavy, We Default to Shame and Control
07:23 - The Real Self-Care Superpower: Self-Compassion
09:03 - When You’re Holding It All—Hold Yourself with Compassion Too
10:01 - Simple Phrases to Stay Grounded When Parenting Gets Hard
11:00 - Talk to Yourself Like You’d Talk to a Friend
12:11 - Ask Yourself: What’s the Most Compassionate Thing I Can Do Right Now?
13:16 - Self-Compassion Is the Bridge Back to Your Teen
14:43 - Self-Compassion Is the Path to Strength and Peace

It's simple, more sustainable, and more effective than one-off self-care practices. It's changed my life and my parenting for the better, and I can't wait to see what it does for you.

Enjoy!
