In this episode, we engage in a deep conversation on the challenges and intricacies of parenting. We discuss the potential impact of shame and guilt on children, even from a pre-verbal age, and share personal anecdotes highlighting the difficulties in exercising patience. The discussion extends to handling stress, balancing anger, dealing with sleep deprivation, and the importance of personal development.
We emphasize the critical role of mental and emotional health in becoming better parents and the need to foster an environment of understanding and support. The episode closes with practical advice for new parents, stressing the importance of internal work and communication.
Parenting isn't about perfection; it’s about progress. It’s about showing up, doing the work, and being patient with yourself and your kids. Equip your children with the tools to navigate life’s challenges, and don't be afraid to seek help when you need it. Our journey as parents is never solo. We’re in this together, learning and growing every day.
