How to Momma Without Drama Nellie Westpy

There are three types of people, leaf people branch people, and root people. We need to desire to have root people in our lives. Leaf people come into your life just for a season. You can’t depend on them as they are weak and only come to take what they want but then when the wind comes, they leave. Branch people are the people who break away when life is tough and can’t hold too much weight. They are stronger than the leaves, but you still have to test the branches out to see if they can sustain pressure or if
they will snap. Root people are important as they do things not to be seen. They are supportive, even if you go through difficult times. They stay to water you and nourish you at the root and will be not moved by the storms of life or your position. We need to be rooted in God and desire to be surrounded by people with roots that can always nourish us and support us in our lives.

There are a multitude of sources that could be triggering anxiety in our children, as well as in us as adults. A few of these are personal relationships, medical conditions, traumatic experiences, a job, even genetics play a role. Anxiety is a manifestation of something much deeper. It indicates that your life is out of alignment and
something is wrong. In this episode, I share a story of a child who is diagnosed with severe anxiety, and once we got to the root of her cause, she has been free of it.

People will throw stones at you, don’t throw them back, but use them to build an empireI’m sure all of you remember the saying from your childhood sticks
and stones will break your bones, but words will never hurt me

While this is true, real sticks and stones would physically
hurt us the psychological damage done by throwing hurtful words is real
hurdles that we deal with in life
I think back to different circumstances in my life when I’ve been
criticized in the form of stones and the truth is, it all depends on
how I’m feeling at the time if I’m confident in what I’m doing,
then I would be able to shrug off some of the comments, but if I’m
feeling unsure or uncertain then I will spend time worrying about what
has been said rather than spend time on something constructive

You have to make a decision, and I promised you that the
next time you encounter someone throwing stones at you you would
take it as feedback to put into a metaphorical box, and choose not to
engage in any further discussion with them, but to try to look at it,
objectively and see if there was any element of truth in their comments
Is this hard absolutely but we truly have to look at it as a season
to learn as much as we can without allowing those negative feelings and
comments to stop our progress so we can use those stones to help us
build our empires whatever that may look like
I would love to hear how you have managed your stones being thrown
at you and how you’ve used them to continue building yourself and your
empire!

Today I want to discuss the decline of respect for parents and
authority. What it means to be respectful is where we should begin.
If you’re respectful, you show consideration and regard. Respectful is the adjective form of the common word respect which means a feeling of admiration.

Would you say this is how your children speak to you? So I was just asked this question in a session with parents this past weekend why is respect important for our children and to our children?

Giving and receiving respect from others is important as it helps
us to feel safe to express ourselves respect and relationships, and build feelings of trust, safety, and well-being. Respect doesn’t come
naturally it is something that you learn.
We conclude with Romans chapter 12, verse 10, be devoted to one
another in love honor one another above yourselves, treating others with dignity and respect entails, treating others as worthy.

God created us to have dreams and imagine. Steve Harvey just shared a recent message on imagination being a preview of life‘s coming attractions. He went on to share that Albert Einstein said imagination is everything and the evidence of things not seen. In this episode, I share how I imagined and dreamed about Hope
Community Center, and now it is opening, and how faithful God is when you place your dreams in his hands. CS Lewis said you were never too old to sit another goal or to dream a new dream never stop imagining!

I don’t know about you, but my favorite job on earth has been being a mom. I never wanted anything more than to raise wonderful human beings who will give back to society, love God, and love others. As I have shared, I’ve always been entrenched in mentoring other moms and families. I know I have shared a handful of struggles that I have faced with my youngest child who was diagnosed with a processing issue, as well as ADHD, and the behaviors and challenges that came with it There have been countless times that I have felt disqualified to be in the position I have been in.
