Are You Looking For Advice or Encouragement? (How to Know What You Need.)
Are you the kind of mom that appreciates parenting advice from others?
Or, does that stuff annoy you every time?
Maybe it depends on the situation, the question, the messenger.
Every mom I know feels vulnerable and questions themselves at least once in a while. (There’s nothing quite like motherhood to make even the most confident, competent woman question herself.)
With time, of course, we learn a whole new level of confidence, not sweating the small stuff or comparing ourselves to how others are doing it. But it doesn’t come naturally to everyone.
So, I think, whether the advice we get is welcomed or unsolicited, what do we do with that info? How does it make us feel? And what do we do with those feelings? Do we react? Or do we self-reflect and respond in a way that feels right?
That’s what I’m talking about in this week’s video.
Continue on for the video, transcript and my 3 tips for determining what you need and how to respond.
