Summary

We don’t just leave our childhood in the past. It comes with us, altering our lens of how we view life. This includes how we view and interact with our child’s anxiety or OCD.

When we learn to identify the “smudges” our childhood is adding to our lens, we are better able to separate out our issues from our child’s issues, becoming more present and intentional in the moment.

In this episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, I will help you explore the 5 main categories where our childhood impacts how we parent our kids with anxiety or OCD, as well as what to do about it!

0:00.0	Welcome to the AT Parenting Survival Podcast, where you get help and guidance through the chaos of
0:09.0	parenting a child with anxiety or OCD. This show is for educational purposes and is not intended to
0:15.5	replace the guidance of a qualified professional. Here's your host, child therapist, Natasha Daniels. Well, hello there,
0:23.3	and welcome to another episode of the AT Parenting Survival Podcast. Today I want to talk to you
0:29.1	about how your childhood impacts how you handle your child's anxiety or OCD. None of us are immune to
0:37.3	this. Every single one of us are immune to this.
0:38.1	Every single one of us has had a childhood and every single one of us has grown up with
0:44.1	elements of that childhood impacting how we navigate and interact with our current life,
0:50.7	including how we interact and handle our kids anxiety and OCD, how you even interact with
0:56.4	your parenting.
0:57.9	And I'm really passionate about this topic because it's one area that we can work on.
1:04.9	It's one area that we can explore and process because as I've been talking about a lot lately on this on this podcast,
1:13.0	we are only one puzzle piece to our kids anxiety and OCD. They have to do so much. But we are
1:19.6	on our own journey. And I've mentioned this quite a lot lately because I'm really passionate
1:24.4	about this topic that how we show up to our kids' anxiety and OCD is our
1:29.8	journey, regardless of how my child wants to work on anxiety OCD.
1:36.1	And by child, I mean child, teen, or young adult.
1:38.9	We don't get to control that.
1:41.0	But that doesn't mean that we're off the journey.
1:43.1	I am raising a child who has these
1:45.0	struggles, whether they're working on it or not. And that impacts me. It impacts my well-being. It
1:50.6	impacts how I interact with my child. It impacts my family. And that's part of our life and our journey.
