Failing Motherhood – Détails, épisodes et analyse

When other kids at the park instantly listen to their parents, it can make even the most well-intentioned parent feel self-conscious (and a little jealous).

Isn’t that the goal? A child who listens without hesitation?

Let’s talk about it.

IN THIS EPISODE I SHARED:

• The longterm ramifications of putting obedience on a pedestal
• What to focus on and aim for instead
• A question to ask yourself to reflect on your approach

DON'T MISS:

• The limiting factor that makes all of this extra challenging with strong-willed kids!

Happy Father's Day, dads!

My guests today, Kevin + Evan, are two stay-at-home dad comedians trying to let parents know the struggle is normal and we’re doing better than we think. 

You might already follow them as they’ve been featured on Good Morning America, Momsplaining with Kristen Bell, & Today and go viral often on TikTok and Instagram for bits like "Dad Press Conferences".

‌They’ve set out to be relatable dads that can poke fun out of the bizarre experience that parenting is, fight the stigma of the bar being on the floor for dads and give parents permission to laugh at themselves and their kids, knowing they’re not alone.

They say they're failing fatherhood, but I pull some great parenting perspective out of them inside this episode!

IN THIS EPISODE, WE COVERED...

• Some of the most patronizing moments they've had as SAHD's
• How they find the line of what to share online
• How to add the Improv tool of "Yes, And" to your parenting toolkit

DON'T MISS-

• Why they're already the parents they wish they were

Dr. Manuela Powell is a breast cancer surgeon turned mindset coach, working to liberate her clients to have the audacity to live a full life.   She fiercely believes the day all women realize how powerful they are will be the day the world completely changes for the better.

After having her first child at 42, Dr. Manuela felt herself transition from an audacious, full-spirited powerhouse to June Cleaver, giving everything to everyone else.   She shares her journey to discovering life coaching, and how it's given her the power to be herself again.

In this episode, she shares...

• How gratitude can become an excuse
• How every woman struggles with internalized patriarchy 
• The top 3 themes that come up with all her clients

Her practical advice for listeners is to...

• Become conscious of things so you can change things
• Notice the way you talk to yourself in your head
• Feel your feelings

With Oklahoma just passing the most restrictive legislation to date, banning abortions at the point of fertilization... toward the end of the episode, Dr. Manuela and I address these motherhood-related US current events.

Ana Tajder is an award-winning author, journalist and the host of “Thank You, Mama," where she interviews women from around the world about the most important lessons they have learned from their mothers.

In this Mother's Day episode, Ana shares the insight + wisdom gleaned from all of these interviews and shares the things daughters appreciated most about their relationships with their moms, and the things they wished they had gotten from their moms.

Ana's story herself includes growing up with a movie star as a mom, considering motherhood at 40, and a rollercoaster first 2 years that led to a heart-breaking conversation with her son.

Toward the end, we discuss how to normalize emotion in front of our kids so they don't feel responsible or at fault, as well as specific takeaways for mothers of daughters.

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY! You are the mom your kids need.

Dr. Lynyetta Willis is a psychologist, speaker, family coach, and author. In this episode, I pick her brain about these pesky things that trip us up as parents: triggers, stress, and emotions.

She breaks down a detailed description of how you can tell the difference between a stressor and a trigger, and how that informs how you handle them long-term.
(You'll love (and relate) to the story she dives into to illustrate this point.)

We talk about what she recommends if you're looking to heal from your past (spoiler alert: it's NOT getting a Ph.D.).

She dives into her definition of Stable Misery: how to tell if you're in it and what to do about it.
And shares 3 questions to ask yourself to deepen your relationship with sensations and emotions.

Her advice is practical, she's extremely funny and down to earth, and every parent will relate to our conversation!

OF COURSE you snap! OF COURSE you lose your mind!
IT MAKES SENSE.

If you wish you had even a smidge more patience than you do...
...get ready for some truth bombs.

In this episode, I paint the picture of what's really going on in these moments - situationally, emotionally, in your mind... and why it's not only NORMAL but EXPECTED to have a short fuse.

The question is... are you ready to change it?

Libby was a perfectionist with a typical baby.  Once her second arrived... everything came crumbling down.

While battling PPD (the rage kind) she was forced to lose her perfectionism and find grace for herself.  She also found overstimulation, resentment, and cycles to break for her kids.

In this episode, Libby shares how she grew to embrace lowering her standards, the things you might be taking for granted, and how to create safety within your 4 walls.
