But what happens when you find yourself still in the trenches, feeling isolated and exhausted, even as your kids get older? You’re not alone.

- Shifting how you think about your problems
- Reality versus your interaction with it
- Steps that help you move forwards, not keep spinning in circles
- Up-regulated overwhelm and down-regulated exhaustion

“But hang on Bridget and Julie, don’t we want to get better, more conscious, and more attuned with our kids?” We know! This episode might seem counterintuitive, but what we’re leading you into, is instead of a rulebook in your head, we want you to drop into your experience, and parent from there.

In this episode we discuss:

- The dynamic of always trying to find ‘more’ spaciousness when you haven’t got anything left
- Holding pride in being the ‘perfect, conscious parent’
- Dynamics that balance your psyche to create connection and love
- Allowing experiences that humble you
- Setting our kids up for unrealistic relational expectations
- Your unwillingness is important for their development
- Holding fantasies about being calm and spacious
- Learning to track what’s happening in your body
- Holding being disliked and judged
- Boundaries and people-pleasing
- Recognising when you’re seeking to be oaky in your child’s eyes, rather than tuning into their direct experience

In an ideal world, we’d love our kids to be active and enthusiastic participants in social, community and sporting scenarios. However, that’s not always how it rolls, is it? And it can get under your skin! So let’s talk about the edges around our child’s teamwork.

In this episode we discuss:
- When you have a set of values and your child chooses the opposite, it’s designed to make you feel frustrated and annoyed - that’s feedback
- When your child’s behaviour feels like nails down a chalkboard
- When you have a high value on family and community and it feels like they’re clashing
- The fullness of feminine feeling colours everything for our children
- Loving unpredictability instead of control
- Wishing they would join in so you can have 5 minutes to talk to another adult
- The whiplash of when your kids love something and then drop it for the new thing
- The unseen tax on mothers for conscious, gentle parenting

Women tend to colour their life based on how they feel. How you feel is what the law of attraction is bouncing back to you. So what are you creating in your life, and do you want to change that?

In this episode we discuss:
- Overloaded ‘mental stuff’ can be an avoidance of emotions and feelings
- The law of attraction (also called the law of resonance and vibration) just hits the ball back to you
- Running your life through a filter that’s colouring everything a particular way
- Creating wider thinking to expand your capacity to feel different feelings
- Your attachment to wanting something ‘better’ than what you have
- Believing you’d struggle less ‘if…..’
- When the fantasy spirals into blame, shame and judgement
- This is not enough; me, you life - creating a lack of appreciation
- Feeling shame when you’re not ‘perfect’ according to the ideal you hold for yourself
- Taking wisdom from how you regulated yourself as a child

What are you not saying, that if you spoke the truth of, would elevate your relationship? When you consciously allow your protective strategies of anger, or avoidance to dissolve, what you’re left with is a really authentic connection and communication, where you stop relying on performance, and old, learnt habits.

So let us help you get more fulfilled in your relationship, quickly!

In this episode we discuss:

- Resistance to getting support, and relying on hyper self-sufficiency as a trauma response
- When you stop exposing your vulnerability because of old experiences of abandonment and criticism
- Becoming a hoarder of tasks and mental load
- Learning to love the eruptions and disconnections as opportunities for a more fulfilling relationship
- Showing up in the face of fear of rejection and abandonment
- Recognising your strategies when someone you love is angry with you
- Defending what you think is ‘right’ is you being defensive of your highest values
- We need to give to the bank of relationship to be able to withdraw from it
- Knowing what you want is more important than knowing what you don’t want

In this episode we discuss:

- What do you need to be more interesting, or interested, than the dishes or the laundry?

- Your partner used to be the thing that you valued most
- Why is relationship sex and your partner last on the list now?
- Habits and patterns are learnt and can become armoury
- Reducing your partner down to ‘oh, you just want sex’
- Bringing your sexual connection back as sacred
