Moments #49 -Your Child Is Growing Up. Your Job Is to Get Out of the Way. Nobody Prepares You for That - Tiffany Scott (Sanya)

In what feels like a blink of an eye, my son is 5 and becoming more independent . And I have had to sit with the fact that my job is quietly changing.This episode is about the shift nobody prepares you for — when your child stops needing you the same way and your role becomes less about doing and more about trusting. Less about protecting and more about letting go.In this episode:→ The grief of the baby stages being gone — and why you cannot remember them being that small→ Why pushing boundaries at this age is development not defiance→ The tension between protecting and stepping back — and why stepping back is actually the most protective thing you can do→ The things that make life meaningful as adults are the moments we trusted ourselves and took the risk. What if giving our children independence now is just the child sized version of all of that?For the parent who is watching their child grow up and trying to figure out how to grow alongside them.
