35: Parents time to reflect, celebrate and embrace past year

Launching Your Daughter - A podcast by Nicole Burgess, LMFT

Categories:

Today’s episode is for parents and the role they have been doing over the last year. Parenting is a full time job with both its challenges and rewards. At the time of this recording it is December and we await for the new year to begin. I am inviting all parents to set aside some time and reflect on your role as a parent. Most parents I work with struggle to see what they are doing well or celebrate how they have broken negative family patterns, such as abuse. So today I am asking you to get out some paper and a pen, set some time for you to reflect either by yourself and/or with your partner, and explore what went well for the year. What areas you may want to adjust/change for next year and what you are grateful for. Once you have done this you may want to encourage your daughters to do the same. Many tween and teen girls struggle with seeing their strengths, obstacles they have overcome and courage that is within them. You never know this may become a family tradition at the end of the year. In this episode you will learn: Why reflecting is important Celebrating your successes and lessons learned What your daughter has taught you over the year To see the full show notes visit http://launchingYourdaughter.com I invite you to sign up for my newsletter because I have some upcoming announcements for teen girls and for mothers.
