Take 25 minutes over lunch to feed your soul!
Read Kathleen’s bio and hear the first part of our conversation in the Sacred Grandparenting – Part 1 episode! In this Part 2 episode, Nada and Kathleen discuss:
- Onboarding the new baby into the family matrix
- Sacredness is “inside work”
- The push and pull of results and the journey
- “Imposter syndrome” with working mamas
- Removing “should” from our vocabulary
Key takeaways:
- Research shows that 2/3 of parents show a significant drop in their relationship in the first year after the birth of a child
- Women tend to have a more difficult time receiving
- Cultivating inner resources for ourselves, inner resources to connect with our child during pregnancy, inner reserves for our partner and the new member
- Not all pregnancies and the birthing process are smooth….and for whatever reason, it is meant to be that way
- Young children that are introduced to a spiritual practice (a personal relationship to a higher power that is loving and guiding) achieve higher levels of academic success and have a lower chance of becoming depressed as teenagers, using drugs/alcohol, and engaging in dangerous and unprotected sexual practices.
- Using gratitude, love, and forgiveness in sacred grandparenting and parenting
