Today’s topic is applicable to everybody, not just mothers or parents.
We often find ourselves complaining about life and unconsciously hoping that complaining will help us get our needs met. In reality, complaining signals our bodies and the people around us stress and resistance. This is not sustainable for ourselves and our relationships.
Listen in to hear Ava share insights from her life and how reframing things positively has supported her recently.
The intention of this episode is to inspire you to cultivate optimism in a healthy way. We recommend you to listen back to this podcast in a month or two to track and observe your progress.
