EP07: Appreciate, Love, and Savor

What role do appreciation, love, and savoring play in this parenting journey? They are the things that bring richness, joy, and meaning to family life. In this episode, Carrie shares her insights on the importance of paying attention to what really matters and focusing on what’s working and what’s good. We all know what it’s like to get stuck in a drudgery mindset of raising our kids. But when we learn to train our focus towards what’s good and give ourselves permission to delight in the miracle of this parenting experience, we begin to create the habit of appreciating, loving, and savoring… and life starts to feel really good.
