When Change Feels Hard AF

On this episode of The Fresh Start Family Show, Wendy and community coach and podcast manager Amy break down why we often resist change and how to move forward when we feel scared of it and why it sometimes just feels so hard.  Whether it’s change that we choose or change that’s thrown upon us, one thing for sure is that we often resist it because it brings discomfort. If we can acknowledge why we are inclined to fight it and work to re-wire our brains to adapt and roll with it, it is often much easier to do!  Even when changing up our parenting game feels scary and hard, we can apply a few strategies to help us move forward with intention. Tune in to hear what we can do to help navigate through the “hard”:  1. Visioning - Defining what we want & clearly picturing the end goal 2. Expecting the Hard & knowing what to do with it - Acknowledge that it is going to SUCK. No need to sugar coat it. Change does often lead to bigger and better things.  3. Make a plan - If you’re someone who needs accountability, the Fresh Start Experience is THE place to get it! No one said it has to suck alone!  4. Finding joy in the journey - Learning to document the small AND big wins which stack over time & lead to massive moments of accomplishment.  5. Celebrate your progress and successes along the way. It’s not going to happen overnight, so just buckle in and get cozy. Our future self will thank us.  For links & more info about everything discussed in this episode, head to www.freshstartfamilyonline.com/172.
