Summary

We've got Lavinia Brown back for part 2 this week! We are chatting more about healing the inner child and some practical ways to reparent our inner child that sometimes tries to take over. In the outro, Jamie shares her thoughts and opinions about the interview. Before we share the rest of the interview, Jamie shares her difficult and ongoing struggles with depression and thoughts of suicide. She talks about how it is important to try to help others because sometimes we all need a smile. (02:16) 13:14 - Can you share some practical ways that we can reparent our inner child? 17:35 - When you say that everything changes, what do you mean by that? What happens physically, emotionally, and mentally to the person once they are able to finally nurture their inner child? 21:14 - How do we make sure we nurture our children while they are living their inner child? 23:21 - Jamie & Lavinia discuss how racism is passed from generation to generation. 24:16 - Jamie shares that her mom got pregnant with her unexpectedly and apparently her grandpa said he thought Jamie might be black and to abort her because her mom didn't know who her father was and her grandfather didn't want to have a black kid in the family. 24:37 - Jamie shares that she thinks it's possible that some of her family may have been racist. Next week on the podcast we have Jamie's former Bachelor producer, Katy Chen Mazzara who is also a financial freedom coach and GURU to share about her and Jamie's time working together on the Bachelor as well as give practical financial tips!

0:00.0	Hey hey hey! Welcome to a new episode of Hat Marriage Cool Parents. This is Doug.
0:19.2	And this is Jani. And we are coming off part 1 of Lou לחey London Brown Healing your
0:25.2	inner child. And this is going to be part two. And I got to tell you that this is all been
0:30.8	very, very profound for me. I'm definitely on my own little journey of just, you know, I've now
0:35.7	spent over a year dealing with postpartum depression and postpartum anxiety. And, you know, I'm
0:41.0	clearly far more vulnerable, sharing my, uh, I don't know, my frogs and my scars and whatnot.
0:48.7	Your frogs? I don't know, like my warts, I guess. Just, you know, but I don't care. I'm so
0:54.2	not strong enough to put up like this defensive face where I'm just happy and whatnot. Like
0:59.7	I really have been struggling. And I'm just, I just am so over it. Like I want to feel better
1:04.8	for myself, for my kids, for my husband. And so anyways, I've been reaching out to people who
1:10.4	I feel like can someone help me? And then if any of you guys who are listening, if you're struggling
1:15.0	with it as well, then I just want to share it so that instead of trying to reinvent the wheel over
1:20.0	and over again, maybe we could just share our experiences and come together and then all heal
1:25.3	together. So, and while that sounds a little bit like Kumbaya, I think it sounds amazing.
1:29.4	No, I definitely take notice and just know that it doesn't go unnoticed the work that you're
1:34.0	putting in and the care and attention that you have. And, you know, it's really hard. I don't
1:39.7	want to say it's hard for me, but it's really hard to watch just you being so frustrated and
1:45.8	overwhelmed and trying to figure out everything that I could do possible to take that away.
1:51.7	Well, that's the thing is that it really doesn't come down to your partner or somebody else
1:56.4	taking it away. It comes down to them supporting you and loving you regardless. But it's really
2:02.4	a personal thing. And I know that. And so that's why, you know, of course, I have my own therapist
2:06.0	and I'm taking medicine. Well, hopefully you also know that I love you regardless. And always
