-
- Mental Health
The secret to emotional security is not having your emotional needs met all the time. It's creating predictability for the nervous system that even when your needs aren't met in the moment or you don't feel connected to another human in the moment, that eventually it will happen.
Kids don't need you to be a perfect parent they just need to know that no matter what that you will be there for them and love them and meet their emotional needs ENOUGH of the time. Not ALL of the time.
When I started to understand this, my parenting approach shifted because I was able to release shame of feeling like a failure.
Listen to hear more about this concept and personal stories and reflections about how I apply this to my own life.
This episode is the third, in a 6 part series where we explore breaking generational cycles so our kids won’t have to.
