#56 Space and time in the weeds of parenting

The Mothering Myself Podcast - A podcast by Susan Kinahan

Listen as Susan breaks down the importance of, and where we can make, space and time for ourselves -- even in the weeds of parenting. We discuss how we view space and time for ourselves and from where our judgments arise. We consider what we do with the space and time that may be available for us, and whether or not we are utilizing the time to support us or to tune out. In this episode we dig into how we excuse ourselves from making time and space for ourselves a priority as parents because it is easier to distract ourselves than to choose to sit with what we are experiencing. We validate all that we are holding and doing for our families, and we normalize making ourselves as much a priority as every other member of our family. We chat about the necessity of finding support for ourselves so that we can respond to our children in love, rather than reacting to them in our emotional experience. Instagram
