Today’s topic is about how to decrease stress, how to consciously take that pause before you react to something emotionally or physically, and how to take care of yourself in order to be your best for others. And not just any others. The most precious of the others: your children.
This is going to be a show about parenting. A job worth doing well; you’re absolute best, actually. In this interview, we will talk about why it is so important, how to be purposeful and present about it, and how to set the intention to be the best parent to your children that you can be.
It is an honor to raise a child and bring that child into adulthood.
And it is definitely a life skill. One that at first, you usually have no skill. So you definitely have to set some intention about it. Mindset is so important. As is finding great teachers and role models. Being a great parent is something that ideally you do on purpose.
My guest today is Adrienne Brown and she has some credentials behind her.
Adrienne is the mother of 8 children; 4 biological and 4 adopted. But what’s more, she and her husband have homeschooled all of them and at this point, have guided the older ones into college and successful adulthood.
And she has contributed to the betterment of our world by raising kind, decent, productive members of society.
She is without doubt a successful parent and a great role model for parents at all stages along the way.
She has a lot to share and I am very happy to have her on this show and talk about the joys and challenges of parenting.
