Grit + Glory - Tales of Motherhood, Mayhem and Metamorphosis Sara Dyer and Rafferty Hallows

This episode Sara and Raff talk about play. How this many faceted part of our life brings joy, anxiety and  opens up opportunities to connect with our lovers, ourselves and our children.  We also talk about the ways we love to hate play and if we ever allow the playful child to emerge how we incorporate them into all areas of our adult life. 

Being a parent and trying to dust off the imagination station of your past 5 year old self is not easy and lets face it not normal, but these days we're spending more time with our children than ever and also trying to remember life is not all budgets and shopping lists we deserve a little fun too. Do you have fun easily? We'd love to continue the conversation over on the gram. 

The Yoga You Tube series we reference in this episode is Yoga with Adriene. We love Adriene for fun and expectation free Yoga https://www.youtube.com/c/yogawithadriene

In this weeks episode we unpack how cleaning has and continues to show up in our lives in correlation to the drilled in idea that cleanliness/ domestic effectiveness/ the ability to spin all the plates is relative to your worth as a person. We unpack how it shows up in motherhood for us and the need to be clean as an opportunity to abate our anxiety and how it also shows up as anxiety in our actions and need for control.  We also cover gender roles and domestic responsibility, raising children and finding the sweet spot in the mix of responsibility and self-care.

This is a topic that has come up for us in many of our conversations and is a constant source of enquiry and learning for the both of us. We also know we're not the only ones who think about the need for clean on a daily basis.

Everything we talk about in this episode is from our experience or perspective and is not an indication that your desire for a tidy home or your indifference to mess makes you wrong or shameful in any way shape of form. This is a very layered topic and we don’t cover all of the things we possibly could and we spoke for and hour!!
