Summary

Hey lady! Are you a hot mama or know one? Well, if you are one and if you know one then you know that being a mother is a full-time, no-days off job and when done well can bear great fruit. This week, Dr. Dom and Terri sit down for a practical conversation about the various ways mothers can incorporate intentionality in the way they mother. A lot of what constitutes for good mothering is making the intention to fill your own cup first. So, how does one do that? Terri and Dr. Dom offer actionable techniques you can incorporate today to help you stay present as you guide your young one. Tune into the Aftershow for additional tips and resources! Remember lady, setting the intention to give your little one the best starts with you modeling that for them. You’ve got this!

Quote of the Day:
"Intentional parenting is not about doing everything right, it's about being purposeful in your actions and interactions with your children."

0:00.0	On this week's episode of Cultivating Her Space, I saw this quote in the quote said,
0:07.1	our history becomes our reflex and my mind was like, psh. And for me, what that means is,
0:14.2	as someone who grew up in a violent household where I was physically abused, verbally abused,
0:19.1	mentally abused, I knew that no matter how much I didn't want to repeat that cycle,
0:24.0	I had the propensity to become what I experienced because it's in me. It's sort of innate,
0:29.5	right? It's like, this is my default because I experienced violence. If I don't do the work,
0:34.7	I make me a violent person because that's literally what I witnessed. That's what's really in me,
0:39.2	right? But so if I don't equip myself with tools, I very well maybe come the mother I always
0:44.1	that I didn't want to become. Today's episode is sure to provide you with motivation,
