"The Fruit Snacks Podcast" with Emily Wardrop, the T1D Moms Coach

We think that we are a good mom if we do what we are "supposed" to do. And we come to this conclusion because that's what our parents taught us with their positive affirmations of "good girl!" when we did what they wanted us to do. And we continue to do that to our kids. When they cooperate we tell them good job. When they are getting along and playing nice we label them as a "good sister!" So of...

The main reason I find that people think that they are a "bad mom" is that they are not able to comply with a long list of expectations or "rules" that they have for themselves which qualifies them as a good mom. I think that this is all a big thought error. You ARE a Good Mom! Inherently. You just ARE. AND you do and don't do things that are not on that list. And it's ok. One of the first things...

When I ask you if you are a good mom you might actually say Yes! Awesome!! That's the goal, right? But do you believe that about yourself 100% of the time? No matter what, even if, and especially when? How about on a scale of 1-10? If "good mom" is a 10, where are you? Why? If you're an 8, maybe you're having a potty training issue or your son keeps hitting his sister or maybe you yelled at them a...

They don't need to...
