Showing results for "IMPERFECT." in Parenting

On The Gifts of Imperfect Parenting, Dr. Brené Brown invites us on a journey to transform the lives of parents and children alike.

As parents, we want to shape our children into emotionally mature and healthy human beings. But we cannot effectively shape our children's emotional well-being until we've addressed our own traumas and emotional needs. In It Starts with You, marriage and family therapist and parent coach Nicole Schwarz offers a nonjudgmental, shame-free guide to parenting children with a calm confidence. Working from a place of grace and compassion, she encourages us to explore how our history, thoughts, and assumptions impact our parenting decisions.

Imperfect Holiness is about finding God in the middle of real life — the laughter, the laundry, the late-night prayers.Hosted by Fallon Tridento, a Catholic mom, grad student, and storyteller, each episode offers an honest look at faith lived in the ordinary: parenting, neurodivergence, marriage, burnout, and the small graces that keep us going.Around here, we don’t aim for perfect — just present. Because sainthood starts with trying.

Imagine a life where you're not afraid to make a mistake, you don't link your worth to what you've achieved, you don't feel like you're drowning, and you never hear that voice in your head telling you you're not good enough.

Amanda, a graphic designer from OH, invited Melissa, a NY stay-at-home mom on her podcast. Melissa, who has been hunkered down for decades after a cool but soul-crushing brush with fame on MTV’s Real World New Orleans, didn’t really do this sort of thing but Amanda seemed nice. They recorded twice due to technical difficulties, but ended up chatting for hours. Who the fuck talks on the actual phone? They do! Two strangers getting to know each other the old-fashioned way. Get to know Melissa all over again as she gets to know Amanda for the first time. Bonus! One’s white and one ain’t.

Our children aren’t listening to the lecture, they are watching the show. They are looking to you for examples of how to live; absorbing lessons from the unconscious ways in which we navigate the world. So what can we do? We can make sure that we are functioning from a place of self-awareness, and that we are demonstrating healthy relationships with ourselves and others. It’s not as simple as setting an intention to model those behaviors because guess what? We also learned how to operate from our experiences observing our parents. This show is about personal development, and self-healing ...

Its effects have probably followed you into adulthood. If you have conflicting feelings toward mom - or if you wish you could get past some of the baggage that holds you back - this is your audiobook.

The good news is our children don't need perfect parents. They need authentic, fully-hearted, relationally engaged parents who can mess up and move on more than parents who always get it right. In this freeing book, respected therapists and best-selling authors Stephen James and Chip Dodd invite parents to let go of perfectionism and micromanaging as they learn to parent from a place of emotional honesty and intimacy. They teach parents that raising children to become capable, loving, and wise-hearted adults is far more about accepting our flaws than projecting an impossible standard.

As imperfect moms, some days we are just trying to keep our head above water. We are the ultimate “Mom Treading Water.” Whether you are a SAHM (stay-at-home mom), a mom who works out of the home, or somewhere in between, we all have our challenges, benefits, and experiences. However, what we do share in common is that we are all imperfect moms. As an imperfect mom, wife, and human, I am exposing myself intending to normalize the sisterhood of imperfect moms. None of us are perfect, no matter what image someone attempts to portray. Mom Treading Water encourages being kind to ...
