The Repercussions of Self-Neglect Nov 15, 2024

Show notes

EP:115 On this week’s episode join me to dive into a bigger conversation about something that’s not talked about nearly enough—how often we as females and mothers put others’ needs before our own, especially when it comes to our health and well-being.
I dive into the pattern many women fall into, where we take on the role of “default parent” and end up neglecting ourselves. This can lead to chronic health issues, burnout, and even resentment in our relationships. I talk about the guilt that many of us feel around spending money on ourselves instead of our families, and how that can affect our emotional and physical well-being.
Trust me you don’t want to miss this one!
XOXO,

Do The Thing That Sets Your Soul on Fire and Teach Your Children To Do The Same Nov 08, 2024

Show notes

EP:114 On this episode of Thrive Like a Parent Podcast, I went to this incredible Pink concert the other night, and it just made me reflect on how much I used to neglect myself back in my previous relationship. I was always putting my partner first, trying so hard to make everything "work" that I completely lost touch with the things that lit me up inside.

And I see that happening with so many parents these days - we get so caught up in the grind, in keeping up appearances, that we forget to take care of ourselves. And even worse, I see parents just zoning their kids out with screens, even at special events like concerts. Those shared experiences and memories are so precious, and I worry we're robbing our kids of that.
My dad took me to so many amazing shows growing up, and I'll cherish those times forever. I just wish I had been brave enough to chase my own dream of being a dancer. So this episode is a bit of a rant, but it's coming from a place of deep passion. I want all of you to go do the thing that sets your soul on fire! And make sure you're really present and engaged with your kids, not just using screens as a crutch.

I know it's not easy, but it's so worth it. We can't pour from an empty cup, you know? So let's talk about why self-care, following your passions, and being present with your kids are so crucial. I can't wait to hear your thoughts on this one. #newepisode #thrivelikeaparentpodcast #ThriveLikeAParent #parenting #podcast

Allowing Others to Love and Support You Nov 01, 2024

Show notes

EP:113 On this week’s episode of “Thrive Like a Parent,” I dive into how yoga and movement help spark my creativity and provide clarity in my life. For me, working out isn’t just about fitness, it’s a way to connect with myself.

I share some personal experiences, including the challenges I’ve faced as a mom of two preemies, running businesses, and going through a tough beginning of divorce before losing Jonathan. These experiences have deepened my empathy for others.

I also reflect on the importance of asking for help. You are not alone. Allow those who love to be there for you and support you..

This episode is a reminder that we’re not alone in our struggles, and it’s okay to lean on others for support.

xoxo
