Good Mom Summer

from Catholic Mom Calm · host Sterling Jaquith

⛱️ Fun & Simple Summer: https://catholicmomcalm.com/fun-simple-summer 😎 Good Mom Summer: https://catholicmomcalm.com/good-mom-summer 🥰 Catholic Finishing School: https://catholicfinishingschool.com/ I'm a good mom. (And so are you. We're going to practice that all summer.) Sterling had a light bulb moment while recording the Fun & Simple Summer program — and it changed her entire summer plan. All the pressure moms feel about screen time, summer camps, boredom, sibling bickering, what the kids are eating... it's all sitting on top of one belief: I'm not a good mom. In this episode, Sterling shares what she's doing about it — for herself, for the moms inside Catholic Mom Calm, and (in a roundabout way) for her own teenagers who definitely do not want to be life coached by their mother. You'll hear: Why telling yourself you're a bad mom for 40 years is genuinely crazy — and the pilot analogy that makes it impossible to unsee What Sterling is personally working on with her own kids this summer (hint: it involves catching people being kind) Why she's sneaking into Catholic Finishing School this summer to teach teenage girls how to believe new things How believing you're a good mom makes you a better problem solver — immediately The 30-second version of changing what you believe about yourself ⛱️ Fun & Simple Summer: https://catholicmomcalm.com/fun-simple-summer 😎 Good Mom Summer: https://catholicmomcalm.com/good-mom-summer 🥰 Catholic Finishing School: https://catholicfinishingschool.com/
