In this episode, I dive into a topic that’s been on my mind lately—parenting. I’ve been conversing with many parents who feel like they’re constantly second-guessing themselves, unsure if they’re doing things right. But from an outside perspective, it looks like they’re actually succeeding. Maybe it’s because the pressure to be perfect is so high that we overcomplicate parenting. But what if it doesn’t have to be that way? In this episode, I share the one thing I believe can give us the best chance to “win” at parenting. Please tune in and let me know your thoughts!
