Summary: <p>Oh, more pressure! Somehow, the idea is often promoted that you're supposed to be best, most, top, smartest, most effective, most productive, most involved, ever-present parent...in order to be good enough! NO! NO! NO!</p><br><p>Who really told you that you're supposed to be a "SuperMom?"</p><p>Who's deciding that?</p><p>Do you value what they're up to or how they live?</p><p>Do you--should you--care what others think?</p><p>Have you examined what "good enough" parenting is FOR YOU?</p><br><p>Big topics worth talking and thinking through! If you don't, you can get caught up in the generalized idea that you're not doing a good enough job of anything! Ever been caught in that "slush bucket?"</p><br><p>Today, Kimberly Lou and I discuss where we get our <strong>ideas of what makes a good mother</strong>, even a great mother. It may not be what you've accepted, or been told and not examined. Freedom!</p><br><p>Kimberly has a valuable distinction: the <strong>difference between creating harmony rather than balance</strong>. You'll want to engage with that thought in this episode. She has some other provocative thoughts that will help you clarify your thoughts, feelings, beliefs, and choices about parenting.</p><br><p>Oh, and Kimberly knows a few things about toxic relationships, too. Tune in.</p><br><p>Big hugs,</p><p>Rhoberta</p><br><p><strong>HIGHLIGHTS OF TODAY'S EPISODE:</strong></p><ul> <li><strong>Recognize that parenting can be crazy-making</strong></li> <li><strong>it's OK to realize that you may be feeling burned out as a parent</strong></li> <li><strong>How to manage all the balls in the air at your house</strong></li> <li><strong>Things to consider when feeling pressed and pressured by parenting</strong></li> <li><strong>Why it's important to do your personal emotional work to be the best parent</strong></li> <li><strong>Who says you're supposed to be a Super-Mom, anyway!!! </strong></li> </ul><p><br></p><p><strong>GUEST: KIMBERLY LOU</strong></p><p>Integrative Life Coach Kimberly Lou helps "SuperMoms" who are burnt-out from taking on motherhood and a successful career to where they have no time to make room for romance.
