ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Would you stand in front of a bus for your kids? Are you making decisions that are the equivalent of many tiny steps in front of a bus, over many years? The outcome is still the same - and it isn't good for you or your kids. Sometimes we do things that are great for our kids, but are actually a detriment to ourselves. And then we feel really stuck in this decision. In this episode, I coach a divorced mom who has moved and changed jobs to live closer to her co-parent, which is great for her son, but is making her miserable. She feels stuck and unhappy and so tired. In this conversation, we dug into where the positives are in her life, how to reconnect with the kinds of things that light her up, and how to hold this current situation a little more lightly, so she can have more joy in her day to day life in spite of the uncertainty of what her future will bring. What you'll hear in this episode
- Why listening in on someone else being coached can be so valuable
- An example of intentionally shifting your thoughts to feel better right away
- An exercise to reconnect with what lights you up (even if you think you don't know)
