Episode notes

When you've built your identity around being a parent, it can be hard to consider what you might want to do with your time now. It's scary to we're like three years away from our youngest being gone. And one of the things that I feel a lot right now is like, Oh my gosh, I have to get to know myself again.

We all want tools to navigate (and minimize!) family drama.

Today, Nedra Glover Tawwab teaches us how we can create drama free families:

How to speak up for yourself when it feels like going against the group;
Why confrontation is often the kindest thing;
When, exactly, we should bring up conflict & when to let it go;
The most loving way a parent can respond to a child in pain.
