    7. Minisode: Personal Update-Getting knocked down & how to get up again

    7. Minisode: Personal Update-Getting knocked down & how to get up again

    Hello amazing friends! It’s Barbara and I wanted to share a more personal episode of how I have been doing lately. Spoiler alert it's been rough. We moved my 88 year old Mom in which has been a huge adjustment and my husband just started traveling again and single parenting is hard, some work things that I was really excited about didn't get accepted and personally I have been feeling like a failure and beating myself up like crazy. I was holding it all together with threads that were stretched super thin.
    I was lucky enough to get away on a mother daughter weekend and what blew me away was that I hadn't done what I needed to do to feel better and get me out of the anxiety & shame. I hadn't opened up to anyone else about it which I got to do with some good friends. I was reminded that when you are real, honest and open with someone that you trust that can listen and hold the space for wherever you are that its the best gift you can give yourself and your friend. What happens is magic. You feel seen and heard, they feel connected and trusted and then they open up to you as well. We all need our lifelines outside of our families and I have many episodes about friendships and vulnerability because it honestly gets me through all of it everything that life brings me. The good the bad the ugly the what the hell is happening and how am I going to get through this of it all.
    I want to inspire, remind & invite you to do this for yourself as well and see how good and life giving it truly is. If you're
    in a good place right now, reach out to your friends and check in with them and tell them how much you appreciate their friendship and their gifts. If you're not in a good place, ask for sone of their time so that you can just unload. It's instant weight loss of emotions. Shame and guilt thrive when we keep it all in and in that place you can't find answers or guidance. So please don't stay alone with all that's going on. I promise that you will feel better.
    Please share this episode with anyone you think this will help(which in my opinion is any woman that you know) and if you have a minute please write a review about the show It means the world to us.
    You are awesome, you are needed & you are very appreciated!
    Lots of love your way,
    Barbara & Tereza
