Episode 8. Holidays with children are a lot like childbirth
(This show is dedicated to Loretta Hart our mentor, who coined the term above)
Everyone loves a good road trip.
We get to getaway from the everyday mundane life stuff and shift into this incredibly relaxing space, unwinding, not a care in the world, beautiful connection with our family...... amazing banter with our partner......um hang on......does this sound right?
If you are like me, you may also have these interesting, and perhaps quite exorbitant expectations of your time away.
It happens to me every time...
I get excited about the space, the time to read, the quite, the calm, the lack of routine and so on.
But when we arrive it feels a bit more like ground hog day with an extra good view!
I start to hear the kids getting shirty with each other, I'm still asking everyone to pick up after themselves (because we are living in an even smaller space in the van), and to have a shower!
I find myself still doing the dishes and cooking the meals!
AND all of a sudden I've lost all of my patience (which I came here to find again), and my usual tools of dealing with this stuff are nowhere to be found!
BUT...
We all know that we can't hide from the shit. If we have that unresolved stuff it will follow us no matter where we go!
And so here is the Shit Show on the Road.
We've taken it with us. Despite our best efforts not to.
Take a listen to the podcast to see how Mel and I deal with this and what you can do to support you through the show!
Until next time....
Nat and Mel
