On today's podcast episode I'm supporting you in asking some major questions about your parenting journey.
There's no question that parenting requires commitment. Parenting a neurodiverse child even more so.
Yet, there are many pieces of your parenting journey that would be MUCH easier if you actually committed to doing them.
Triggered? Good, keep reading because it's not what you think.
For example, I'm sure you know tons of people who are "interested" in improving their fitness. They talk about going to the gym, buy new clothes, and even book the membership. But what percentage of those people actually show up at the gym with commitment and do the work that needs to happen to generate the results, day after day?
Even when they're tired, even when they're not in the mood, they show up and do what they've committed to doing anyway.
At best, it can be boring.
Now I know what you're thinking. "Sara, how does this apply to me as a parent? Parenting isn't something I can't excuse myself from doing!"
Hear me out. You're here listening to this podcast because you want more for your life. You don't want your unique child to live his/her life based on stereotypes or glass ceilings.
However, just because you're checking the parenting boxes does not mean you're actually doing what it takes to elevate your child to the next level.
Let's take a closer look. In order to catapult your parenting to the next level you must first acknowledge your blind spots. This episode is here to help you do so in a loving, nonjudgmental way.
