099 | Lessons from Lexington: Wins, Challenges, and Ideas from an Impulse Family Trip
This impulse family trip was eye-opening (in the best ways possible), and really brought up SO many things for me. It reminded me to deeply think about how I’m spending time with my loved ones, parenting my kids, treating my body, planning and prioritizing, and even, how I’m showing up in community with others in this world (no matter their ideas or perspectives). I hope there’s a little nugget (or two) that you’re able to take from these lessons and apply to your own life, too!
In this episode, we cover:
- The extra frustration and overwhelm that comes with ‘chaos planning’ and simply ‘winging it’ vs. ACTUALLY having a plan and setting yourself up for success
- Why you HAVE to be willing to give up what feels ‘easy’ for what you really want
- Being more intentional with being outside and spending time in nature this summer
- Our recent experience with multiple flat tires on my car + why this was such an important reminder that how we handle stress matters
- Consistently modeling behaviors and emotions that positively support our kids + the difficult and triggering work that comes from (re)parenting ourselves in the process
- Getting super clear on your priorities + making the time and space to plan for those things so they actually DO happen
- Stepping out of your comfort zone and choosing to be in community with other people who have different ideas, perspectives, upbringings, etc.
