“Self-care is not optional. I define self-care as something that is intentional and something that you do just for you. The intentionality piece makes a difference because you’re reminding yourself - I deserve this and I matter.” ~ Debbie Reber
In this episode of BOSS™ Talk, I get to sit down with parenting activist, Debbie Reber who is, also, the founder of Tilt Parenting, a website, podcast, and resource for parents like her who are raising differently wired children. We had a transparent conversation about parenting and taking the time to make sure we take care of ourselves.
A regular contributor to Psychology Today and ADDitude Magazine, Debbie’s newest book is Differently Wired: A Parent’s Guide to Raising an Atypical Child with Confidence and Hope. Debbie’s take on relentless self care and her message of hope for parents will no doubt be life changing for you.
Before becoming a solopreneur, Debbie worked in TV and video production, producing documentaries for UNICEF, working on Blue’s Clues for Nickelodeon, and developing series for Cartoon Network.
