033: Submission Episode: Overcoming Mom Guilt Jul 09, 2021

Submission episodes are helpful if for no other reason than to know that we aren’t alone! Mom-guilt is so common and knowing that other moms experience it as well somehow makes overcoming it just a little easier. In this episode we share all the ways you move away from mom-guilt in hopes that we can all work on this together!

032: What We Love About Gentle Parenting Jul 02, 2021

Show notes

We live in a time when with so many resources at our fingertips! How amazing that we get to be so well informed and intentional in our parenting methods. Although we have far from perfected our parenting, both Paris and I really love learning about and applying the principles taught in the respectful/gentle parenting method. We thought it would be helpful if we shared what we love about it so you can do your own research and apply some of these things in your own home. If this episode was helpful in any way we would love if you left a review in Apple Podcasts! You can follow along @kindred_conversations, @brittanywestoverfrye, and @paris.tews.

027: Methods to Finding Rest and Renewal May 28, 2021

Show notes

Rest and renewal can feel like an impossible goal at times, but they are necessary if we are going to show up in the ways we want for all the people we love. Of course, being a mother is a fulfilling and love-filled role, but without meaningful breaks we can easily lose our purpose and motivation. The need to have regular moments of recharge has felt especially important to us recently. In this episode we discuss the ways that we are currently finding rest and renewal. We reflect on our habits and how a personal check-in can help us avoid falling into routines that don't currently serve us. We would love to hear from you on this topic as well!

In a culture that overemphasizes size and appearance it can feel confusing and difficult to navigate a time in which your body seems to change with as many phases as the moon.

We were so happy to bring Kimberly onto the podcast this week to answer our questions all about body image and intuitive eating!
