Episode notes
Hard Work Versus Wrong Path
- Challenges that grow you align with your true path, even if they feel hard.
- The "flow" means ease in access, not ease in the work itself.
Stick To Your Plan
- Follow your plan made in a positive mindset, ignoring lower energy feelings.
- When resistance comes, push through and do the next right thing without overthinking.
Parenting Equity Over Fairness
- Fairness in parenting is impossible; instead, aim for equity by meeting each child's unique needs.
- Focus on children’s strengths rather than comparing them or feeling guilty.
