Today, we have a segment of Ask Rachel on the show and I get to answer a bunch of really beautiful questions.

We dive into the really difficult conversation of how to not pass on your own wounds to your kids as you move through the journey of parenting.

And I talk about beauty culture and how we protect or have to protect our children from

society standards and how to let them keep that unique beauty that each child is born into this world with.

I also talk about how do we parent through healing something?

If we have something inside of ourselves that we're still working on, that we're still untangling,

how can we parent and hold our children in a different energy while healing ourselves?

It's a beautiful episode. Thanks for being here.

Let's dive in.

Hello, hello, hello. Hello again. I have to say hello again because I did something really stupid just now.

And I'm going to choose to laugh at it. I'm going to laugh and not be upset.

Here's what I did. I accept all to record this podcast.

And I did their little intro. And then I had to drink, I had to take a sip of water so I pressed pause on the recorder to just sip some water.

And then I went back to the pod and I did a whole long podcast.

Where I told you a bunch of big stories and stuff.

And then I just kind of glanced down at the recorder and I forgot to press record.

Which essentially means I was sitting here for 45 minutes just fucking talking to myself.

Which is kind of what podcasting is but not really.

I mean, I am always talking to myself because you guys are not here in front of me like looking at me holding my hand or anything.

But you know, I'm mostly talking to you.

And I just like, I just thought, oh my god, I never pressed record.

That's just like, oh, I'm going to choose to not be upset about that.
