Listen "56. I turned out fine"
Episode Synopsis
In this short solo episode, I delve into a reflection that has been on my mind for some time. I explore the common phrase "I turned out fine" often used when reflecting on childhood experiences or parenting styles. What I've noticed is that beneath this statement lies a layer of shame and guilt, pervasive in conversations about parenting. Two main streams of parenting mindset seem to show : parents strive for perfection, always feeling like they're not doing enough parents, feeling lost or guilty, justify their past actions with the phrase "they turned out fine." While it's not easy and may not always look perfect, striving for more than just "fine" is essential. Mothers deserve better than aiming for mediocrity when they don't trust themselves, and children deserve more than just getting by. Together, let's aim for thriving.
