EP 265: Nothing Changed & Everything Changed - A mom interview

A single mom who adopted boy-girl twins through foster care shares about her slow, almost invisible journey from survival mode to genuinely delighting in her now-13-year-old kids. Nothing shifted in one big moment.  Yet somehow, everything changed.

In this episode, you'll learn:

• Why the shift from "I have to fix this right now" to "I can just be with you in this" is the thing that changes everything — for your kids and for you
• How letting go of performing shame (in school meetings, with professionals, for society) freed up the energy to actually parent
• Why the biggest leaps — academic, emotional, social — consistently happened during the stretches when they stopped trying to fix anything and just existed together
