Ep #4: The &#!% Show

We place so much pressure on ourselves as parents to live up to a certain standard.We also want to do right by our kids.and we certainly don't want to be that family - you know the one - their kids are running all over the restaurant, screaming and throwing things, and losing it when it's time to leave the park. Their kids never get along and aren't speaking to each other by the time they're adults.We don't want to be that family, but we secretly worry that we are. Especially if our children are highly sensitive and emotions run high.Life sometimes feels like a s#&! show, and when it does, most parents either beat themselves up for letting it get this bad or not having it figured out by now, or they throw in the towel because they feel like there's nothing they can do.But neither of these approaches really serves you.This episode is about finding a better approach to those weeks or months that life feels like it's spinning out of control.--- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/julia-mcgarey/support Get full access to The Blackbird Chronicles at juliamcgarey.substack.com/subscribe This is a public episode.
