What does it take to be a resilient mom?
This was a question a woman asked me not long ago as we sat together on an airplane flight. The answer is a beautiful overview of what we are doing here as we study resilience together. In this episode, I unfold the five core practices that empower resilient moms, beginning with the transformative power of self-awareness. Understanding our thoughts and emotions isn't just self-improvement; it's about laying the foundation for emotional maturity, which echoes into our children's lives. Through the art of emotional regulation, we're not only fortifying ourselves but also teaching our little ones how to navigate their inner landscapes.
Listen in as I discuss how resilient moms embrace their personal power and make intentional choices, especially when faced with life's inevitable hurdles. Resilience is less about flawlessness and more about the continuous practice of nurturing self-trust and joy in the face of adversity. For every mother searching for support and inspiration, this conversation illuminates the path to not just surviving motherhood but thriving within it.
