Celebrating Parenting Wins

Recognizing and celebrating small successes in parenting can greatly enhance self-confidence and help parents stay motivated. It's essential to acknowledge those moments, like dealing calmly with a child's emotions or making a productive shift in behavior. These successes serve as reminders that parenting is a relationship, and progress comes from moments of connection and understanding rather than focusing solely on mistakes. By routinely celebrating these wins, parents can foster a more positive mindset and reaffirm their ability to navigate the complexities of parenting.

Raising kids is a learning process, and (no doubt) there's a benefit to reflecting on the mistakes we make along the way. But Janet believes we can learn even more when we recognize and appreciate our successes, no matter how inconsequential they might seem to us as the time. Maybe it's the little bit of empathy we felt as we limited one of our child's bothersome behaviors. Or a momentary sense of confidence in ourselves as leaders rising above the fray. Or the realization that we could, just that once, let our child's feelings be without judging them, and then, the increased closeness we felt with our child when those feelings passed. In this episode Janet celebrates YOUR illuminating, inspiring stories, and she's exceedingly grateful to you for allowing her to share them.
