    188. From Being Good To Creating Connection

    188. From Being Good To Creating Connection

    As children we learned to be “good” and as an adult we want to be a “good” mother. But what does GOOD really mean?

    Essentially, being good means to make everyone happy. And to make everyone happy comes with self-sacrifice. We expend an enormous amount of energy into avoiding conflict and upset. And that comes at a big cost.

    Studies show that high stress, depression and anxiety are
    correlated with self-sacrifice.  

    It’s time for an UPGRADE.

    Creating connections is a process that moves us toward
    feeling seen, heard and understood. It’s about feeling valued and having a sense of belonging. It’s about showing up for who we are and expressing
    ourselves authentically. It is only then that true connections form.

    The benefit of connection is THRIVING.

    187. Becoming a Happier You [interview with Bona Normandeau]

    187. Becoming a Happier You [interview with Bona Normandeau]

    “There’s no path to happiness.
    Happiness is the path.”

                                     –Buddha


    Happiness is our natural state. However, we have been
    socialized to believe we must be in pursuit of happiness and that happiness comes from outside of us.  

    So, we search for happiness. And in this search we often tend to get lost.  On this episode my guest, Bon Normandeau, shares her story and
    her journey back to herself and true happiness.

    Bona is the host of The Happier You
    Podcast, Empowerment Coach, and Public Speaker. Her mission is to empower individuals to find their own happiness, helping them navigate their unique
    journeys with greater resilience and more joy! After realizing she was lost, lacking focus and living a life of fitting in, she decided to embark on a journey to discover what living her best life could look like. Instead of just
    taking the journey herself, she decided to start her podcast and share her experiences with others in case anyone else out there needed to know they
    weren’t alone. She found out she most definitely wasn’t alone. She’s been inspiring action ever since.

    185. A tribute to Mothers

    185. A tribute to Mothers

    Today, I am sharing my thoughts on Mothering. Mother’s Day can mean many things to many people. In a culture that judges mothers based on their child’s behavior, mothering can be extremely stressful. Who did I have to
    be for my mother to be seen as a good mother? Who do my children have to be for me to be seen as a good mother? When we are not willing to look at
    our truth it will eventually come out sideways. If we don’t heal our own wounds (the things that trigger us) we WILL hand these wounds to the next generation.

    184. “I’m Bored”

    184. “I’m Bored”

    “Boredom is a defense to emotional awareness.”

                                                              -Gary Zukav

    On today’s episode we are talking about boredom.

    Boredom is a form of resistance. It is resistance to
    becoming aware of what you are feeling. This is the ROOT of boredom.

    Boredom is not right or wrong nor good or bad. Boredom is natural.

    We can fall into drama roles around boredom. Boredom can be empowering, building skills such as
    initiative, self-reliance, and problem-solving skills as well as creativity, curiosity, and flexibility. It also builds tolerance for discomfort.

    Allowing your children to own their own boredom and find their own solutions is essential in helping them build important life skills.

    In this episode you will learn how to use boredom as an opportunity and ways to respond to your child when they proclaim, “I’m bored.”
