Hey there!

Every month Annie has a call with our Path 365 members and answers their questions.

She tackles a wide range of topics from what to do with big emotions, what kinds of tips and

advice she has for addressing difficult situations, how to deal with cravings, and

so much more. Listen in as she does some real life coaching for our path

members. Hi Annie, how do you get over the mom guilt of stealing your child's childhood

away from them because of your drinking.

So first of all, I'm such a big believer in us really thinking consciously and examining the words that we use,

even when we ask questions,

because our brain is kind of like Google.

And if you ask it a question,

it's going to instantly supply an answer, right?

And so actually, a lot of our thinking can be more useful when we ask the right questions.

So, and the right questions with kind of the right words.

So like, how do you do you you know the mom guilt of stealing my child's

childhood I just want like everyone who's listening who's a mom or who's a dad to check in with

themselves and feel like how do those words feel like stealing my child's childhood with my drinking.

They're there's such heavy words and they're such intense words and they carry so much sort of baggage that even in the question the answer is going to be intense and heavy.

And so I would be careful like when you're

noticing the questions that you're asking yourself

or the thoughts that you're having just notice the wording,

notice the language.
