For My Kids #1 Dropping Expectations

I felt defeated and dissapointed. I was wise enough to notice "Hey, this isn't quite right, I have o much, why am I feeling this way?" I got to the bottom of it. If i didn't know what I do I might have beat myself up for decades like some people I have coached or met. I hope for others to learn the self compassion and willingness to ask for help that i have. And I hope my now 4 year and 1 year old kids listen to this, and know that I am always with them, even when I leave my body.

Instead of thinking it was me against the child in me, It has become Me WITH the child in me. Giving myself what I need to thrive and be better. one of those things I need is to be honest with myself, and you in this episode about what parts of me I'm healing so that you too can see there is healing for you that qwill set you free from the only thing you're ever trapped in. Your own mind protecting you from the unconditional love that starts with you. Inside your heart. I hope this opens your heart and reconciles something within you.
