The encouragement i needed

I have many favorite quotes from thos book, that play through my mind to help me to keep repairing when needed and returning to the goals I have for my parenting. I appreciate how thoughtful and encouraging this book is, no shaming or blaming, but grace abundant.

This is a heartfelt and empowering resource for parents ready to reflect, grow, and parent with intention. As someone trying to manage the traumatising experience of an acrimonious divorce on 3 very different children, I am trying to do so while building emotional healing myself. I like that each chapter offers practical exercises, reflection prompts, and real-life examples. I am also trying to move forward from my own childhood experiences. Some of the examples around sibling conflict and self-reflection are great for me.

I received an advance review copy for free, and I am leaving this review voluntarily.
