Why You're Parenting Like Someone You Swore You'd Never Be (And What to Do About It)
About this episode
Philippa Scott explores the concept of Fragmentation in parenting and how it affects both parents and children.
You heard your own parent's voice come out of your mouth. And you were horrified. That moment — the reactive snap, the cold withdrawal, the pattern you swore you'd never repeat — is not proof that you cannot change. It is the presentation of a nervous system in Fragmentation: the third stage of The Mother Awakening Cycle, and the stage that most intentional parents are in when they finally start looking for something different. This week Philippa Scott goes deep into Fragmentation — what it actually is, why it isn't what you think, and why trying harder is precisely the response that keeps the cycle stuck. In this episode: - Why Fragmentation is the signal, not the sentence - What inherited patterns have to do with your reactive moments - What your Fragmentation does to your child's nervous system - Why intentional parents are often the last to recognise they're in it - What comes next — and why the Awakening changes everything This is Week 3 of the 5-week Mother Awakening Arc series.
