I'm not a supermom. But I always wanted to be one and have it all: family, career/business that I love, AND the time for myself. But that ambition without proper stress resistance and resilience killed my mom (cancer at 48) and drove me to the edge of burnout twice. Only when I saw the disastrous effects of my anger, stress, and resentment on my little daughter, I knew I had to change... Since then, not only have I healed but I also helped thousands of other women all around the world through trauma-informed therapy, coaching & mentoring, and mental fitness training. And I decided to share the most vulnerable and valuable pieces of my and their journey here. Because if we got out of that dark, stuck place of feeling like a terrible mom, YOU CAN DO IT TOO. So choose the episode that speaks to you and tune in!

Ep 53: How To Set Healthy Boundaries With Your Kids

What are boundaries really? Because kids naturally don’t like rules, they will always try to break them, negotiate, not do it, … But I also didn’t want to force, push, or yell at my daughter if she said no or didn’t listen. Because I didn’t want her to grow up into being me: the one who always listened and never said no out of fear, and ended up becoming a resentful people-pleaser, walking on eggshells not to make mommy mad = afraid of not being loved.So is it even possible to have rules and get them respected without yelling and all that drama around it? I won’t sugar-coat it, this one took me a while to figure out because I didn’t have any healthy role models growing up. So this is where I’m at with it right now, perfectly imperfect…You can catch this episode on Youtube at https://youtu.be/FK8UCjILepcSupport the showDid this episode help you in any way?Leave a review and comment here: https://lovethepodcast.com/zensupermomWant to know the 3 game-changing steps to become a calm mom and stop yelling?
