Summary
In this episode, Dr. Shaw discusses and reveals some perspective on her own humanity in a way that can help parents, and all adults really, keep themselves in check regarding their own personal progress in life. She begins with the notion that a moment is just a moment, and she points out that when we have dramatic experiences or we learn important lessons that we need to develop a new emotional muscle so that we don't fall back on old patterns. For herself, she always attempts to be present so as not to respond habitually. She then shares an important example of how this creation of stamina or new behavior came into play for her recently in an important interpersonal relationship. The big takeaway is that we all tend to be our most self-important when we feel unimportant... we all feel our most controlling when we are actually out of control. Knowing this can be incredibly liberating.
