In this episode, Alisha Carlson explores the hidden ways moms unintentionally teach their kids to people please and live without boundaries—simply by how they show up in day-to-day life.
You'll learn why modeling self-care isn’t selfish, how to break generational cycles of hustle and burnout, and how to lead your family with grace, wisdom, and strength.
This is more than parenting—it’s personal transformation. Because when moms prioritize their own self-worth, rest, and wellness, they raise kids who do the same.
What You'll Learn:
- How your habits are silently shaping your kids’ beliefs about rest, self-worth, and boundaries
- Why busyness isn’t a badge of honor—and what to model instead
- The difference between real self-care and the highlight-reel version
- Practical ways to involve your family in healthy habits and personal growth
- Why perfection isn’t the goal, but ownership is
- How to stop the cycle of people pleasing (for you and your kids)
Key Takeaways:
- If your kids only learned about boundaries by watching you… what would they believe?
- You’re not just raising kids—you’re re-parenting yourself.
- Actions > words: More is caught than taught.
- Boundaries show your family that time is sacred.
- Rest isn’t a reward. It’s a requirement.
- Grace over guilt. Always.
- When you take care of yourself, you're teaching your family to step up, not step around you.
