Boundaries You Set With Your Self: The Missing Piece in How You Show Up as a Mom Parenting Teens | Ep. 253

from The Almost Empty Nest—Letting Go, Redefined: Parenting Teens and Finding Yourself Again—with Small Jar Coach · host Master Coach Jennifer Collins

Have you ever promised yourself you’d stay calm, stop overthinking, or finally focus on yourself, only to end the day feeling frustrated that you reacted the same way again? If you’re a mom navigating parenting teens or the empty nest, this episode will help you understand why that happens, and why it’s not a lack of discipline. In this episode, I’m talking about the boundaries we set with ourselves and why they’re often the hardest ones to keep. I’ll show you how your mindset and emotions drive reactions you later regret. More importantly, I’ll help you understand how to stop reacting on autopilot and start showing up with more intention and self-trust. 💡 Interested in learning more about how to create peace, confidence and connection as you raise and launch your teen?
