How to Stop Beating Yourself Up | POF56

One of the things I’ve been really good at, especially since becoming a mom, is beating myself up.  I know you know what I mean.  As moms, we all do it because we think we have to do it all.  We tell ourselves we aren’t good enough as moms and we SHOULD know how to do this parenting thing…but how should we?  We know being a parent is the most important job in the world and when we struggle, most of us have deep shame.     When we feel bad about ourselves it sets us on a shame spiral and away from authentic joy.  BUT there is hope in reuniting you with joy so you can live your happiest life.  What’s the first step to getting there?  My guest, Bonnie Kelly, is an expert in how we self-sabotage AND how we can start the journey to connect with joy by starting with forgiveness (her favorite F word!).  Listen in as we talk about how we get suck beating our selves up when we don’t feel like we are the moms we thought we would be, have kids we struggle to parent, mom guilt and more!   This conversation is your invitation to a transformation from struggle to joy!!

Parents! We CAN change the world, starting with the way we're parenting our future. Up to this point in history, children have been seen as less than and parented in a way that uses power over a child. Most of us were parented in this way but there is a shift in thinking about the way we raise our kids. Parents don’t feel good about using shame, blame, criticism, punishments, and even rewards, to get their kids to listen. Parents are wanting a different way because they know from their own childhoods this type of parenting hurts and leaves us with scars we take with us through our adulthood. Each one of my episodes is designed to help you navigate the difficult journey of parenting but in a way that is more peaceful and intentional. I’ll show you how to get your kids to listen and cooperate without yelling, punishments and rewards. I’ll show you how to understand your own feelings and those of your kids. My intention is to bring you to a place where you feel connected with your kids and yourself (we often get lost when we become parents!). Tune in weekly for all the inside tips, tools and tricks I teach my private clients to help you build the family you always wanted, and to become the parent you always envisioned you would be. I promise to provide you with fun and entertaining content that will leave you seeing your kids and your reactions in a whole new light! Please make sure to share the episodes that give you goosebumps, and leave you feeling inspired! I am always grateful for every person who subscribes, leaves a review and rates my podcast 5 stars.
