Episode 11: Why Your Cup Is Never Full & How to Make It Overflow
/We hear ALL THE TIME that you can't pour from an empty cup, right??
And it's true, you must put your own oxygen mask on first and meeting your own needs for rest, grace, empathy will allow you to show up in your relationships with your partners and children with more presence, authenticity, and joy. But...
Tell me if this resonates:
It's like the cup that you are supposed to be filling is bottomless.
No matter how much yoga, breathing, or journaling you do, you're always pouring it back out into your kids and partner.
You feel drained, like everyone needs you and they are sucking you dry (sometimes literally for our breast/chest feeding parents!).
There is just never enough of YOU to go around.
Well, I have a secret to share with you in this episode that will flip this on it's head and make sure that you NEVER have to feel drained in this way again. And, no, I'm not adding more self-care to your to-do list.
In fact, you don't have to DO anything!
In this episode I'm going to be sharing one of the most powerful mindset shifts you can make as a parent:
WHY your cup never feels full

How to shift out of a scarcity mindset in your parenting and how to embrace ABUNDANCE.
My Champagne Glass Tower approach to parenting with compassion and connection.
And then I walk you through STEP-BY-STEP on HOW to shift from a scarcity mindset to an abundance mindset.
