About this listen
What if everything you thought you knew about parenting was a lie?
In this episode, I share a powerful and personal reflection on why traditional parenting expectations often do more harm than good. Drawing from my own experiences as a mother and the stories of hundreds of parents I’ve supported, I challenge the "A + B = C" equation that suggests perfect parenting produces perfect children.
I unpack the weight of socially constructed obedience, patience, achievement and the guilt that comes when children don't meet those standards on someone else's timeline.
What You'll Learn
- The Parenting Lie: Why the belief that we control how our children turn out creates unnecessary conflict and pressure.
- Expectations vs. Reality: How letting go of "shoulds" reduces battles and builds deeper connection with your child.
- From Designer to Guide: Why our role is not to shape children into our vision, but to support who they already are.
This episode is a reminder that our children did not come here to live our dreams, but their own and the greatest gift we can give them is to truly see them for who they are.
