Summary
Do you ever hear (or say) things like this:
Life is hard.
Being good at school means you will be good at work.
Don’t expect too much, then you won’t be disappointed.
You can’t do it that way.
Do you ever question whether or not these things are really true? This week Todd and Cathy bust open these so-called “facts” to recognize how these negative belief systems slow us down or keep us stuck. They also discuss “mini freedoms” and why they are so important to busy parents.
