Episode notes

The actress Jennifer Lawrence recently explained about becoming a mom. "My heart has stretched to a capacity that I didn't know about," she said. You are busier now than you ever were in your life, Ryan Holiday says. Your kids have given you so much and compensate for this by giving you a much bigger heart.

There’s no question that becoming a parent has stretched you beyond limits you ever thought possible. You are busier now than you ever were in your life. You manage to survive on less sleep than you ever thought humanly possible. You have been stressed, worried, upset in new ways and to new heights.

Your kids have given you so much. They have quite nearly given you a heart attack on many occasions…but they compensate for this by giving you a much bigger heart. They stretch you, they expand you, they make you better.
