And....we're back...with some failure. Nothing like a good dose of failure. Actually making good friends with failure maybe your quickest path to success and confidence. If you have on the right glasses.
In this podcast I talk about the "behind the scene" thoughts that often get us to not let our kids fail and what they get to experience when we are willing to step out of the way and let them struggle themselves to a victory.

Ever wonder how to interact with someone that is different than you? How to connect with someone that has nothing in common with you?
The answer...empathy. Empathy is the great connector between humans.
In this episode I talk about what empathy is, where to use it, and how to develop it.
Thanks to Brene' Brown for doing the research you have done and being brave enough to share it with the world.

Mommas Have Special Needs Too - Ep 14 Layering our struggles to meet our needs
play

06/06/20 • 18 min

Most problems can be categorized into 2 different groups: problems that grow us (quality problems) and problems that keep us stuck. What is interesting is that we often layer our these, positioning our "stuck" problem in such a way that our quality problem can be hidden from view. Why do we do this? That's what I talk about in this episode.
