EP. 40: How our Presence Shapes Connection-Letters from our listeners
Description
Challenging highlights you'll want to hear:
In this episode of webe Parents, Matt and Alona dive into the uncomfortable truth: most of us walk around performing connection instead of living it. đ We force smiles, suppress our real feelings, and accidentally teach our kidsâand partnersâto do the same.
Theyâll unpack why authentic presence matters more than âgetting it rightâ and how chasing joy from the outside inleaves us disconnected from ourselves and those we love. đ
đ„ Hear about the viral moment when a parentâs tears on the first day of preschool overshadowed their childâs joyâand why missing those moments creates long-term disconnection.
đ„ Explore the danger of masking emotions with fake smiles, especially with kids who see right through us.
đ„ Learn why setting boundaries from a closed heart can backfire, and how embracing your messy, real self builds trust over time (even if it feels risky).
