Parenting screw ups | Why is Meditating so hard?!

About this episode

The episode discusses the challenges of parenting and self-acceptance while exploring the difficulties of meditation.

Finding myself and trying to be a good parent is one of my biggest challenges. Sometimes I get it right sometimes I screw up. I am grateful my older kids lived with the worst me and seem to be turning out ok. About this podcast: I was afraid to be myself for years. I pretended to be comfortable in social events, parties, work meetings. But inside I was struggling; afraid of being judged and saying something stupid. Then I read a book called Quiet by Susan Cain. This book changed my life. I am learning and want to share this messy stuff about myself and the world. I hope you find this useful. Want to learn more about your personality?
