Summary
In this episode of After Hours With Amanda, I’m talking about protecting versus projecting in parenting, with a little help from One Tree Hill and the emotional baggage of Dan Scott.
I get into motherhood, gentle parenting, body image, childhood trauma, the rules we inherit, and the question I cannot stop asking myself: is my parenting happening to my kids or for my kids?
This is not about having it all figured out. I’m practicing, learning, catching myself, and trying to raise tiny humans without handing them fear that was never theirs to carry.
Grab your bevie and come hang.
