Breaking Expectations: Father's Day Reflections -- ep 59
As parents, we often carry the belief that every waking moment should be dedicated to our children. But what if we told you that stepping away, taking time for your own experiences, and nurturing your individual desires is actually one of the most powerful gifts you can give your kids?
In this episode, we're diving into an unexpected side effect of prioritizing ourselves: how it creates an incredible ripple effect that empowers our children to live their most authentic and desired lives. We share personal insights and stories about how our kids' genuine excitement for our separate adventures—whether it's a quiet bike ride or a fun girls' night out—mirrors their own desire to share their experiences and pursue what lights them up.
This isn't about being selfish. It's about modeling empowerment, self-worth, and the pursuit of individual joy. You'll discover how showing your children the importance of taking time for yourself isn't taking away from them; it's giving them permission to embrace their own desires, avoid people-pleasing, and go after what truly makes them happy.
Join us as we explore:
- The impact of prioritizing your separate experiences on your family dynamic.
- How leading by example helps your children feel empowered to speak their desires and live authentically.
- Moving past the guilt of taking time for yourself and stepping into a more aligned and joyful way of being.
- How this practice has elevated our own relationship and flow, creating a more present and connected family life.
Get ready to shift your perspective on self-care and parenting, and uncover how nurturing yourself can inspire your children to thrive!
