From Neuroscientist to a Homeschooling mom of 3: A Personal Journey and Insights into Parenting
Ever wondered what it takes to shift gears from pursuing a PhD in neuroscience to the demanding commitment of homeschooling? Well, today, your host Cindy Hovington opens up about her intriguing life journey, sharing the valuable lessons she's learned along the way. In this riveting conversation, I recount how I've learned to trust my gut, embrace failure, and never neglect self-care. We'll discuss my conscious decision to prioritize privacy by avoiding the exposure of my children's identities on social media. Delve deeper into the intricacies of mental health, as I share my personal insights about the profound impact emotional well-being can have on us and our parenting. Hear about my own experiences and learn how understanding our emotions can have a profound effect on our children's emotional and mental health. Also, I share my thoughts on the therapeutic benefits of journaling, and how making time for joy can positively influence our lives. We'll also go through some insightful questions about parenting from our online followers. Listen in for an enlightening exploration of my life lessons and join me in making joy a priority this week.Please leave a rating for our podcast on Apple Podcasts or Spotify!
