Giving our Kids the Gift of Confidence When We Don't Have it Ourselves
I heard my daughter say "I don't feel beautiful" for the first time recently. It gutted me.
In this episode, I'm getting real and raw with you: I've struggled with an eating disorder, and self-destructive behaviors for much of my life. I'll dive into that story, and how I plan on using my own experience to give my kids the gift of confidence.
I'll be discussing:
- The importance of affirmations
- Training your brain to be positive
- How motherhood healed me
- (Bonus!) What makes me ugly cry on the toilet
Building confidence in our kids is setting the foundation for good, lifelong decisions. I'm making this my mission for my family, I hope you'll join me for yours!
