Everything about this book is not my cuppa tea - entrepreneurial white women with the answers to improve your life rooted in therapy is whatever the opposite of my love language is - but.
I occasionally pick up parenting books just to see if I’m approximately on the right track. Ish. I don’t try to be perfect, and I’d rather not analyze the distance between here and perfection as it’s defined this second. But if I can avoid some unforced errors, what the hell. I really like the subjects they cover, with an emphasis on emphasizing your own non indulgent self discovery in order to support your kids better. Because I do think it’s true that to be fair, you have to be able to identify your own beefs and hang ups, in order to set them aside or resolve them. To be logical, you actually have to be real in touch with your emotions. So yeah - good book! But in general I think what parents need is to chill out, have fun with their kids, and worry less. But I can’t imagine you can monetize advice like that. Well unless you’re Matthew McConnaghey I spose.
So, so helpful. This is the first parenting book I’ve read cover to cover (and didn’t take me MONTHS just to put down and never pick up again). It’s super easy to understand and follow along, and has clear, simple to implement tips to incorporate into your daily life.
