Does positive journaling feel disingenuous to you? After all, there are really hard days when you’re a mom. Sitting down at the end of a rough day and writing down something positive can feel dishonest. Hop on to this week's episode and listen as I share an email I received from a listener who struggled with this. Hear how she navigates the balance between authenticity and optimism, and then hear how I’ve tried to do the same.
If you have any thoughts about this balance, I’d love to hear! Come join me on Instagram, or leave a comment on my blog post!
