She said "I wanted to make a podcast suggestion in case there are other moms like me feeling this. I love allll the podcasts but I constantly have this underlying anxiety feeling of "agh, it's too late. I've messed this up for my kids so much their whole childhood, If I only found Tessa years ago... I wish I could just start over." I am here to reassure you that none of us are alone and...

I love it when I have a story to share of a recent experience and that is just what I have in store for you today. My husband baked my sourdough starter (that I have tenderly babied for a month to get going) to 300 degrees ... wowza. Now, I could have harshly reacted and expressed disappointment on to him and justified every second of my behavior, and I didn't. What if we didn't do what we could justify, and instead chose to do what could lead to better interactions and truly teaching...

You've tried the black out curtain, sound machine, weighted blanket, reward, sleep consultant, prayer and routine and you kiddo is still an early morning riser. Well, same! I'd say you are in dang good company! My oldest is approaching 6 and quiet literally from the time he was born until now, he's been an early morning riser.

"You shouldn't feel guilty for that..." Have you heard that little phrase being tossed around on social media or even in your friends circle? It's sounds pretty convincing right? Like we can just hype ourselves up and out of the feeling of guilt by chanting "I shouldn't feel guilty for this!!!" Only, that's not how feelings work and what does it do to tell ourselves we shouldn't feel any feeling? How do you feel when someone says "you shouldn't feel mad about that..." rather than...
