Navigating Family Dynamics with Courage

from Thrive Like A Parent · host Dr. Brooke Weinstein

EP:148 Hey there! In this episode, I'm getting real about the challenges of being a mom, managing family expectations, and learning to prioritize myself. My son Eli's baseball journey threw me into a whirlwind of decisions this summer. I had to choose between a family vacation and supporting his All-Stars team, which wasn't easy. I'm sharing my raw experience of feeling pulled between family demands, my children's needs, and my own mental health. Those moments of people-pleasing? I've been there, and I'm done with letting others' opinions dictate my choices. This episode is all about the courage it takes to set boundaries, make tough decisions, and stay true to yourself. I'll walk you through how I navigated this crazy month - from juggling my in-laws' visit, a quick family trip, Eli's tournament, and camp preparations. It's a vulnerable look at how I'm learning to regulate my emotions, make decisions that serve me and my family, and stop trying to make everyone else happy at my own expense. And bonus? I'm introducing our new Regulation Reset Collective and our first mini-course on people-pleasing. Trust me, you don't want to miss this conversation about reclaiming your power and living authentically.
