11. What do I actually NEED? (part 1 / 2)

from Curious not Furious · host Louise Brooks

As parents, we expertly try to respond to our children's wants and needs from the moment of birth. We soothe, we hold, we nurture and we give. Also, when we have nothing more in the tank. And while we may have a faint idea of just how disconnected we have become from ourselves and how divorced we are from our own needs, it can be hard to notice when life is lived 100mph. That's why slowing down can feel so confronting. In this first of two episodes on self-care for parents - we address the difference between: Hard and difficultandWhat I want and what I need While we all want to scroll incessantly or eat a bar of chocolate when we've had a row with our partner - it might not be what we actually need. So what DO you need? And why is it so difficult to be with the messiness? To get weekly tips and parenting inspiration sent straight to your inbox - head over to www.louise-brooks.com to sign up for my weekly newsletter You can follow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/parentingsuccesscoaching/And onFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/
