Have you ever felt like your preteen's mood swings are somehow your fault? Like every outburst or meltdown is this giant spotlight on your motherhood journey? If you’re nodding right now, you’re not alone.
So many moms carry around this invisible weight of guilt and self-doubt, thinking, If my kid is struggling, I must be messing up somewhere. Sound familiar?
I am here to flip that script and remind you of something big: your worth as a mom isn’t tied to your child’s emotions. Think about that for a second. Your preteen’s ups and downs? They’re not a report card on your motherhood—they’re just part of growing up.
In this episode, I take you on a journey to uncover where those heavy feelings come from. Spoiler alert: it’s not your fault. A lot of it comes from generations of being told that a mom’s job is to keep everything perfect all the time. But guess what? That’s not the real story.
You will see those tough moments for what they are—stepping stones, not stumbling blocks.
I talk about why self-compassion is a game-changer and how a little kindness toward yourself can go a long way. Because let’s be honest, how can you pour into your preteen if your own cup is empty?
I share real, practical ways to break free from all the pressure and create a space where both you and your child can grow.
So, take a deep breath. You’re not failing—you’re learning, and so is your preteen. Tune in and find that balance between supporting your child and showing yourself some love along the way.
If you’ve tried to stop yelling... but nothing sticks when you're overwhelmed; this is what you’ve been missing.
You don’t need more tips or hacks,
You need a way to interrupt the spiral before it takes over.
This Isn't for Moms Who’ve Never Yelled.👇🏿👇🏿
