Your life is a gift.
But does it ever feel like one endless to-do-list? I need to _____, ______ & ______." And the list goes on and on. It can feel so overwhelming and unsatisfying. One little shift in perspective I learned from one of the moms in business I follow (maybe Michelle?) can make all the difference. Change your "I need to..." to "I get to...." I get to.... * feed my family nourishing food. * feel warm water running over my hands as I do the dishes. * make this _____ clean again. * help my children learn how to be awesome people. * nourish my body with good food. * shop for what we need. I'm not saying your life will be perfect. Or you'll float through your days like Mary Poppins (or maybe you will). But when I can shift my mind to a place of gratitude, I suddenly have the energy to do all the things I want to ---with less resistance + resentment and more joy and ease. And you deserve more joy and ease. For your life is a gift, as is raising your beautiful children. So today, what do you get to do? All the best, Megan

Hi friends, I write from the heart to tell my life story, and the story of those in my neighborhood called life. Research shows that our children's emotional & mental health is contingent upon us parents being able to tell our life story, or "coherent narrative." This is my coherent narrative, my life story in the making, with some of what I love in life too. My goal is to share my life in a way that is real, uplifting & positive- sometimes serious, sometimes fun. In my practice, I inspire parents to empowerment through reclaiming our life stories and learning respectful discipline. My work is my offering to our children- our future. Wishing you all a happy family! Archives
