294- Taking Ownership of Our Feelings (So Our Children Can Have Their Own) with Heather Chauvin
Description
You're listening to Voices of Your Village. Hello, everybody. Today, I got to hang out with Heather Chauvin of the Emotionally Uncomfortable podcast. And we had such a great conversation talking about how to take radical ownership of our own emotions and needs as adults so that we aren't laying that burden on our kids. We touch on codependency and co -parenting relationships and how so much of this work is the self -awareness of what's coming up for us underneath the way we're interacting with our kids and partners. Heather is a TEDx speaker, author of Dying To Be A Good Mother, and host of the highly loved podcast Emotionally Uncomfortable. Heather started her career as a social worker helping adults understand children's behavior, but it wasn't until 2013 when a stage 4 cancer diagnosis pushed her to take a deeper stand for change, uncovering how cultural expectations sabotage our dreams. She's been featured in Forbes, Entrepreneur, Real Simple Magazine, MindBodyGreen, Google, and more. When Heather isn't working, you'll find her living out what she teaches, which may include kayaking Alaska, snowboarding, hiking, or anything else that challenges what she believes is possible for herself and inviting her children along the journey. Alright folks, let's dive in.
