If you have children, you’ve probably thought at some point, “Am I a good parent?”   It’s natural to question our own abilities sometimes. Do I spend enough time with my kids? Do they feel safe? Do they feel loved? Are they comfortable talking with me about anything that’s going on in their life?   My kids are adults now. When I think back to when they were growing up, there are things I would have done differently if I knew back then what I know now. But that’s not really fair though. I know I did the best I could at the time. And they still turned out to be great adults and I’m really proud of them.   My guest today is Naseem. She has 3 kids. And there was a time when she found herself wondering about how she was doing as a parent. Wondering if her children knew how much she loved them.   It’s interesting the thoughts that come into your head, when you’re being run over by a car.   Naseem’s book, The Unexpected Benefits of Being Run Over: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BW3LK86X/   If you’d like to contact Nassem, you can do that through her website: https://LifeUnbreakable.com   Naseem’s Instagram: https://Instagram.com/nasrocs   Full show notes and pictures for this episode are here: https://WhatWasThatLike.com/224   Graphics for this episode by Bob Bretz.
