I have heard it said that you never know how difficult the journey of healing and unlearning behaviors is until you have a child. I never realized how much work was needed in certain areas until I found myself triggered by certain behaviors. Even though I have been a parent for three years, I am constantly learning what works for me as a mother - so come on this journey with me as we navigate what it truly means when we begin to unlearn, heal and be our authentic selves in this journey of motherhood.
Reparenting: Giving your inner child the love you needed - Part I

All of our parents do the best they can with the knowledge and emotional skill set they are equipped with during your upbringing. And really, the recovery of your inner child is an opportunity to delve into some deep, radical self-care.

Triggers - How they show up and How can we unlearn to be better
Most of us have some unprocessed emotions from childhood, which is another way of saying we're lugging these unprocessed feelings and memories around in our emotional backpacks. This unconscious "baggage" will inevitably get triggered as we go through life. It sends us right into our unconscious meaning we do and say things that we would never do if we were fully conscious and aware. And because these are childhood experiences, our children have an uncanny ability to trigger us.
