Episode 2629:

Stephanie Wiggins explores the raw emotional terrain of parenthood, unraveling the often-unspoken reality that parenting rarely matches our expectations. With unflinching honesty, she sheds light on the grief, identity shifts, and deep personal growth that emerge when we embrace the gap between idealized visions and lived experience.

Read along with the original article(s) here: https://corelivingessentials.com/parenting-is-not-what-i-expected-what-happened/

Quotes to ponder:

"Parenting, for me, was not what I expected - and no one really warned me."

"There was grief. Deep grief. And anger, too."

"I had to go back and rescue myself from the pressure of perfection."
