Show Me The Baby

In this episode, my youngest daughter and I discuss the need to have "thick skin" or be strong in situations. While we agree that we don't want to be taken advantage of, we also realize the need to give grace to others.  Often whatever is being thrown our way has nothing to do with us, but can create hurt feelings if taken personally.To learn more about me and to purchase my book that shares all of my tips about parenting, wellness, leadership, and life skills, visit www.kristynlee.com

In this episode I welcome back my friend/Gemini twin, Daphne Maidstone to talk about how the choices we make lead us down the path to "the next thing."  During the podcast, I mention a Robert Frost poem that reminded me of our conversation.  I couldn't recall the details during the episode,  but the poem is called "The Road Not Taken."The Road Not Takenby Robert FrostTwo roads diverged in a yellow wood,And sorry I could not travel bothAnd be one traveler, long I stoodAnd looked down one as far as I couldTo where it bent in the undergrowth;Then took the other, as just as fair,And having perhaps the better claim,Because it was grassy and wanted wear;Though as for that the passing thereHad worn them really about the same,And both that morning equally layIn leaves no step had trodden black.Oh, I kept the first for another day!Yet knowing how way leads on to way,I doubted if I should ever come back.I shall be telling this with a sighSomewhere ages and ages hence:Two roads diverged in a wood, and I—I took the one less traveled by,And that has made all the difference. Daphne Maidstone is a Writer & Bohemian and Law of Attraction Practitionerwho spreads happy magic throughout the universe!Facebook.com/daphnemaidstoneInstagram.com/daphnemaidstoneShe could be your personal cheerleader.

In this episode my friend and Gemini twin, Daphne Maidstone, Goddess of the Universe, joins me to talk about the power of noticing people and complimenting them.

In this episode of Show Me the Baby, I talk with my longtime friend and confidant, Jan, to talk about the idea of "gold stars." Gold stars are the need or hope to be appreciated and noticed. This notion goes back to my days in elementary school and being given a gold star sticker on my paper or test for doing well.  You may envision approval by a pat on the back by a mentor, a supervisor telling you how well you are doing, or your mother beamingly smiling at you in adoration. Jan and I discuss how we now find our achievement in the intrinsic value of a job well done.  We share our thoughts about raising children and grandchildren in ways to better help them find success in themselves without the need for continual praise.To learn more about me and to purchase my book that outlines all of the topics I share about parenting, organization, wellness, leadership, and life skills, visit www.kristynlee.com.
