How many times have you questioned whether you are a “good mom”?
In the last 2 months, I’ve asked myself this at least 4000 times. This summer did not go as expected which made me doubt if I’m being a good mom.
Am I spending enough time with my boys?
Am I putting my phone down and paying attention when they talk?
Am I making my kids a priority over endless stress and anxious thoughts swirling around my head?
Here’s some wise advice I received recently from an older, more experienced mom, on how to deal with challenging decisions and seasons. Plus, I’m sharing what is working for me to keep my head above the water and continue paddling (upstream) right now.
For more emotional regulation support so you can feel like you’ve got this even when life feels like you’re paddling upstream, join me at the Create the Calm all-inclusive luxury weekend retreat or for the next round of small group ADHD coaching.
Retreat registration closes TODAY, August 31st!
The next round of group coaching starts September 14, 2023.
