When you grew up reading other people’s needs you tend to lose touch with your own.

Presence as a parent matters. But it’s much more than just being there. True presence is about attunement, emotional connection to oneself & others and the ability to hold a safe space for your child.

As you heal you quit seeking continuous advice that leaves you feeling more confused and instead you begin to trust in your own judgment.

Taking time to see, hear and be with nature is an excellent way to slow down and reconnect to yourself. There’s wisdom in the natural world. Take time to soak it in.

Sometimes you push yourself and other times you pull back. Discernment is part of healing, recognizing when to push and when to pull.

As you grow, judgment decreases and curiosity increases. A lens of curiosity expands our ability to engage with the here and now.

New things always feel hard…until they don’t. Healing is the same, it will feel hard until it doesn’t. As new things become familiar, the feelings of difficulty often fade.

If your child is struggling it’s an excellent time to do some self reflecting as a parent. Sometimes we place expectations that are unattainable or our unhealed wounds are driving our parenting. Connection over control.

There’s more than one way to look at a story; 1) They don’t care or follow the rules. OR 2) They are searching for safety & struggle to connect with others in service of protection. It’s not always black and white.

We often judge others in an attempt to protect ourselves. Judging allows us to focus on others and avoid what’s within.

Overprotection as a parent often comes from the experience of a lack of protection as a child. No one was there for you, so there’s an attempt to ensure your children never feel abandoned like you did.

Telling someone to calm down doesn’t usually have the effect we think it will. Especially if calm doesn’t feel familiar or safe in the body.

Trauma is personal. We don’t get to decide what is traumatic for another person. Experiences can land differently for different people. Two people can experience the same thing and one may feel traumatized and another may not.

True confidence is felt in the body and that energy is shared with those around you. People can feel the vibration of your strong sense of self. Confidence isn’t arrogant or rude but embodies a connection to authenticity & an openness to being yourself.

One of the best gifts you can offer your child is a regulated nervous system. Children are born with the need to connect & co-regulate with their caregivers. Giving them a safe and stable place to connect, with love, compassion and safety is a beautiful thing.

We spent time on the lake today as a family and I did my first water ski of the season. I love the water and being with my family, so a perfect day. Do what brings you joy, surrounded by those you love.

When you give without boundaries, people will take without limits. Setting boundaries is a way to protect yourself.

Shifts and changes happen as you heal. What once seemed so important, may no longer carry the urgency it once did. Something that felt so heavy may feel lighter.
