“my new parenting mantra courtesy of the amazing moms behind @upbringing:
👆🏼RESPECT
✌🏼CONNECT
👌🏼SOLVE / INNOVATE
👊🏼TRUST

you know those people who as soon as you meet them, you are instantly at peace just by their presence? you are pulled into their calming yellow aura, and feel like you are a swaddled baby being soothed in their arms #weirdbuttrue. that and so much more is the amazing twin moms behind @up_bringing. I have the luck to know them IRL and they are just as you would imagine by listening to their podcast: calm, funny, creative, and a few cuss words thrown in to keep it real. I have been singing their praises to anyone who even mentions being a parent, since you typically bond over whatever struggles you are currently facing, where I quickly use their motto “the hard stuff is the good stuff” as my sales pitch to go listen to them.

while all the episodes are #gold, I recommend starting with the EMPOWERMENT episode on “the 4 powers” where they outline my new mantra mentioned above, and then try the one on “toddler tooth brushing”. ones like these that give tangible examples really help me do better next time. PLUS they give an affirmation at the end of each one that makes me well up every time. ok I’m going to stop raving. now go listen!”
